I just bought a Gateway Solo 5300 from someone cheap they said it works fine but they get no picture. I can't find any diagrams online and I was wondering how I could find out if its the Lcd or the onboard video. Any Help would be great thanks.

Hello set2trip,

I'm having the same problem you are with my Solo 5300. Sometimes I can get the video to appear and sometimes it doesn't. Whenever I press the power button my lights come on, I hear the CD-ROM spinning but no video. Again, this happens about 75% of the time.

I'm also looking for technical resources for this model and have been unsuccessful so far. Please let me know if you find anything. I will do the same.

Thanks.
