@Markyb86: Thanks, I didn't know about the BNC connector. And thanks for the monitor tip. I'm going to mess with the cable to see if I can get some better results. I'll try to post some pictures of the monitor.
@Scott Baret: It is an actual Sony monitor. The owner bought it because it supposedly had better picture than the mac monitors at the time. I forgot the model name, but I can get that later if it is any help. The cable that I am currently using isn't in great shape and actually seems really cheap for a sony product, so I will try to replace that if possible. There might be some missing pins as well, but that is probably just because it is a DB9 pin monitor that doesn't use as many pins as DB15 or VGA.
@jruschme: Well, I looked at the MoBo to try to find the problem and lets just say it was easy to find. Half of the mainboard was corroded beyond repair. The case itself is also beaten up so much (scratches, cracks, dents, bad hinges, etc) that it isn't really salvageable, either. The keyboard is missing a key, but I will keep it and try to find a replacement key, given that it works (I'm guessing that the unit has water damage, so if the keyboard was spared, I will try to fix it up). I will keep the HD and ram (If good), and I will probably sell the optical drive, LCD, trackpad, speakers, battery, etc (given it all works after the abuse). If you're still interested, shoot me a PM. I am also going to post pictures, in case anyone is interested in looking at its condition.
