I am at it again - anyone have an old Toshiba Satellite Pro Laptop from the 400 series (400/405/410/415/420/425/430/435) that is working but has a bad display?. In fact, if you have one in any condition that you want to get rid of, let me know.

Email me with offers at alexmack@frognet.net
or PM me.

It's a good deal to know how to fix em' since you can buy them dirt cheap, and sell them at a good price :)

It is just that I have an old notebook that I like very much and I am afraid that if the graphic card dies, or the dvd-rom drive goes there is nothing I can do......I want to replace these components So that the computer will last me some years more.

compaq persario 1900 xl

500 celeron E (it is not a mobile cpu)
192mb ram (sandra says it can be upgraded to 1 gig)
4.8 gig hdd (had to replace this one)
6x dvd-rom (although in benchmarks it says 5x)
ati rage moblity 8mb vram.

I'd leave well enough alone, cost and effort to do the preventative maintenace ain't worht it - not likely the video card will go bad, DVD maybe( they ain't cheap), but wait until it happens?
