Dell W1700 Sound, but no picture issue

I have a Dell W1700 which had the classic backlight inverted problem. Sound, power light on, but no picture. I read the forum and discovered that this is a common issue. Like most owners of the W1700, I felt that this TV/Monitor was excellent, except for the sub standard inverter board. So I had two choices. Buy a new TV monitor, or attempt to repair mine. I opted for the latter. I went to [url]www.LCDpart.com[/url] and found that they sell the original inverted board and a remake that is supposed to be superior, both for $79 plus $10 shipping....
