Hi, thanks for responding it a nec 50mp1 colour monitor it has NEC Model NP50C1MF01, written on the back of the display. Iv'e checked all the horizontal connector strips there are 5 on the right hand side and 8 on the left hand side. there are two small driver boards down the left hand side the board no is PKG50G1E1. are these boards expensive and where can i get them from ?
