    Now Video Showing through New Laptop Screen & Old one


    I have a HP Probook 6550b that I bought off an old Ex-Coworker, who happened to have punched in his screen one day, and decided to hand off to me for about $10. I bought the Screen replacement assembly off of Ebay for quadruple the amount, (sadly enough) and had just received the part today. Some tedium of dissembling and reassembling the system of a couple hours later and it looked almost brand new. I hit the power button and Nothing. The lights came on and the whole CPU fan spun, but after a winding up, still nothing. I was about to go and refund my item, thinking that the screen was a dud, (after doing the whole repeated hypothesis of what the issue was, either HDD, Ram, or otherwise.) I was about to set a dispute out to get a refund, but out of a little curiosity and after digging in the dumpster for the old screen and having the screen wires, (A 40 pin, and this weird Ring Tipped wire sprouting at the side, that both of these came with,) I came to the same blank screen result. So now I have no image coming from either screens, and I think it might be playing in part from ring tipped wire that might be the issue, I'm not sure. What I do know is that usually laptop video connectors that I've seen, usually came as a single wire. However this one sprouted a loop at its hip for this one, so being it screwed to the motherboard that somehow be the sole cause, would be my guess at this point. It was already troublesome getting everything prepared up to this point, so any suggestions on what I maybe missing out or can fix to get either screen to project anything at this point would be grateful thanks.

    Looking for help with laptop screen

    It's quite easy to replace a screen, try to find a disassembly guide for the specific model of laptop so you have a step by step indication of where to take screws out and what clips to unclip. There might be some youtube videos as well. Always make sure the replacement screen is compatible as there can be different connectors.

    Old User Account Still Showing Up

    My wife got a new laptop and I'm using her old one at work. While still on Windows 7, I deleted her account and set up a new one in my name as administrator. I then upgraded to Windows 10. Every time I restart the laptop, Windows 10 wants to default to
    her old account and shows it on the login screen. My account is listed in the lower left corner of the login screen as an additional account. I have to select my account instead of hers, enter my password and login as usual. Her name/old account is NOT
    listed under user accounts or family accounts, etc. I have not found any way to completely delete her account or any other evidence of her name on this laptop.

    How can I get, what seems to be a ghost account off this laptop? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
