If you replaced the lvds cable and the inverter board the other parts that can be checked are the inverter cable, the backlight lamp and the LCD screen itself. Do you see the desktop without light or the screen is totally black ?

I have a similar issue and wonder about the answer to this question: I do see the screen very dimly. Is this a sign the inverter board is bad? Hope so since I ordered one and it awaits installation. Thanks, in advance, for your help! Jim
