**This is a continuation of this post: [post|714823]. In many cases I consider a BIOS password you cannot clear without a motherboard swap/$50+ programmer BER, but this one is super good cosmetically and was not average.**
I finished the motherboard swap between the parts system and good chassis. So far it has been perfect, but there's an issue preventing 100% compatibility :-(. It took the non-SureView screen mostly well, but I lost the SureView button (duh) and the brightness controls, even with a BIOS reset.
Drat I didn’t get my way 100% :-(.
Is there a way to “restore” the keys short of a new keyboard as well? I’ve committed to the swapped screen as I can’t find a reasonably priced IVO panel very easily, and I know if it breaks again, I’ll probably need to do this - in addition to glossy panels being good for nothing reflection nightmares. This screen was $90, uses the NORMAL 30-pin iDP cable internally and if it breaks I can get any old LG IPS panel. I can source a touchscreen for $126+ but I need to frame swap it from the assembly I recovered from the operation.

I have went through with the motherboard replacement from the junk laptop, and it worked out 99% of the way - it took my non-SureView screen mostly well. I lost the SureView button (duh) and the brightness controls, even with a BIOS reset.[br]

I’ve committed to the swapped screen as I can’t find a reasonably priced IVO panel very easily, and I know if it breaks for real again, I’ll probably need to do this - in addition to glossy panels being good for nothing reflection nightmares. This screen was $90, uses the NORMAL 30-pin iDP cable internally and if it breaks I can get any old LG IPS panel.
