Replaced screen on laptop - now dim

Stheno · 2009-12-17 23:48:18

I cracked the screen on my laptop recently and when I replaced it, the screen is so dim as to be unreadable. I swapped out the new screen with the cracked screen and it's the same, so I'm now trying to figure out if it's the inverter I've damaged. Any thoughts? It's a HP DV6500
