Hi all,

So this is the problem. My little cousin picked up his brother's macbook and dropped it. The macbook turns on and works, except that the screen is very, very dim.

I am trying to find a way to rule out inverter, inverter cable or if it needs a full screen exchange.

Can somebody help me find out if the screen is doomed or I can try something to bring the brightness back?

Again, it is working, my cousin was able to pass a bunch of files to an external hard drive. However, it was a pain as the screen is very dim.

Brightness button does not have any effect. I pressed the brightness button a few times, then the dimming button as well. The laptop seemed unaffected. Didn't get brighter and apparently didn' get any dimmer.

Thank you in advance!

it can be the video cards..it can also be the screen lamps...
