I have a Sony pcg-f520 laptop and I had to replace my lcd ribbion because I ripped my old one out of the monitor. When I put the new one on my monitor is yellow in color and you can't really see the desktop that clear. Any ideas??? I have already tried another inverter and that didn't help.

Usually, a caste on the screen indicates that a colour channel isn't working properly - on desktop machines I've seen it when a pin on the VGA cable is bent or broken and even when the customer hasn't plugged it in properly and it is slightly out on one side.

Is the ribbon cable in correctly and none of the pins missing or damaged? That's what I'd check first.
