Re: ibook G3 notebook working... but screen not

Hmmm, well it seems that you may just have to take it to an Apple repair place. I have never heard of any wire repairs for G3 iBooks. The big problem with them was the GPU coming loose, which sometimes you could "fix" by applying pressure to it with folded up paper between it and the bottom half of the case. If you have no screen output, then I'd say the backlighting or the power inverter has gone, or the GPU is bad. Either way, neither are really user repairs.
