So I replaced the inverter, and nope its not that, and im tired and fed up
now, so im going to sell it on ebay.

ITs been a long long day.. its a Pentium M 1.6

It's a bad LCD panel. Replacing the inverter was a waste of time &
money (and if you had asked, any knowledgeable person could have told
you that).

Still, you may get more for it than you might expect. You might get
$300 or more. The motherboard, hard drive, memory, DVD burner drive,
battery, are all worth a significant amount, not to even mention the
keyboard, plastics, power supply, etc.

And the machine IS repairable.

I know but by the time I get a new LCD which is going to cost around $250, i
could easily buy myself
a duo core 2 machine...

$300 sounds good, i would be happy with that :)

You'll get more for the parts than the whole system.

How come you put up with this problem while it was still under
warrantee? As you could have a working laptop right now.
