A company in Stockport, Greater Manchester, www.notebookrepair.co.uk carry all Samsung NC10 spares and are very helpful if the following doesn't work and you need to buy a new display cable
1. Remove the battery.
2. Peel off the little rubber pads from the four corners of the face of the lid and unscrew the four screws underneath them.
3. Using a pocket knife or similar object, peel the face off the lid. There are places along the top where some sort of adhesive keeps it together. Elsewhere, there are snaps that pop open as you peel the face off. Do not be alarmed.
4. Unscrew the four screws at the base of the LCD panel, freeing the panel from the hinges. Commence handling the LCD panel. Notice where the cable flattens out and adheres to the back of the panel, this is usually where there is a fracture - Have some fun peeling the first inch or so of it off and sticking it back on, so it is a bit higher and supports the fracture.
4A. This is where you take your new cable and thread it in in place of the broken cable - if the above doesn't cure the problem.
5. Re-insert the battery and fire up your computer. Check it's O.K. now - Once you have confirmed that your problem is solved, find a nice way to lace the wiring into place and screw the LCD panel back on.
6. Continue staring at the computer screen. Turn the brightness up to full blast and have a sandwich. Enjoy the computer. If the problem is still fixed, shut the computer down, remove the battery and screw everything back together.
Bear in mind that, if you are still under warranty and have a few weeks to blow, you might be better off sending the machine to Samsung.
