Spoke too soon. No sooner than I got it working than I let it sit for several days unplugged and then turned it on to find it was back to square one.

Leaving it on for several days in SCSI disk mode to see if taking it apart was just a coincidence that it began working after several days of previously charging a bad capacitor or some other malady.

No amount of jiggling seems to affect it. It might be a connection in the display side, too, but nothing changed between the last time I shut it down to present, to work it loose. I will check it nevertheless.

Otherwise I will disassemble and check out those caps.

Tom, do you think the original Active Matrix screen is identical to the backlit one? Or would I have to get a backlit one to swap with the PB100?
