Sorry Al, for some reason I haven't been getting new thread notifications. I'll see what I can put together for you.

I've used both Freedom and Kevin. Both great guys.
No, we ditched most (well, all really) of our used parts.
There is a value, but it's hard to measure. Best way to measure it is to do exactly what you're doing... engage potential buyers and see what they'll give you or if they'll take what you're asking. ...
I'll PM you.
Does anyone have some recommendations for a gunsmith in this area. I'm looking to have some pretty basic work done on a few of my firearms, but I want it done *right*. Scope...
^ What he said... agreed they're usually not too terrible. One of the easier things to change on a laptop. When you look for the keyboard, make sure you look for one that is for your particular...
How budget are you thinking? I also have a couple of HP laptops here that have been sitting in stock for a few months. You can have either one at current wholesale cost + tax.
No, you wouldn't want to try to pull the chip. It's likely soldered to the board and you'd need special soldering equipment to take it out.
They're actually available on eBay for less than I could buy one for direct from Gateway.
A very interesting problem, one I haven't encountered before. It is certainly possible that some part of the video circuitry went bad which is not allowing even a Linux live cd to run properly (...
PM me the serial number, model number, OS, etc... and I will see if I can find anything out directly from MSI. I am an authorized MSI Partner so I have access to some tech support channels that...
Scrap it
I should know within 24 hours how long it will take.
Will it run plugged in with the battery out?
if you ran the full test, yes, the drive should be fine in which case it's probably just a damaged windows file causing it to boot-loop. Reloading windows should take care of it. You should either...
Probably a bad sector on the hard drive, or the hard drive is failing. Some Thinkpads have a utility partition which can be accessed by hitting the blue think vantage button during startup. There...
You can hook an external monitor up to it to get your information off and sell it for parts on ebay to recoup some of your costs.
It depends on how long you've had it, combined with how much you paid. Usually if it's more than a couple of years old, it's not worth it, especially if it's a sub $700 laptop. Display replacements...
I don't mind. As mentioned, I don't service Apple right now. If their dealer requirements weren't so draconian I might consider becoming authorized, but at this point it doesn't look like it's...
Ok, it does look like it has to do with the activeX security settings (presumably in Internet Explorer). Try going into the settings for the various zones and hit "Reset All Zones to Default Level"....
Well, activeX is a web-based technology, so it shouldn't be affecting the start up of a program. If it's somehow a browser-based program or something like that, it's probably an unsigned activeX...
Well, get the model number and I'll see what I can find for dis-assembly information.
You had to say "simple"... didn't you know that when it comes to Apple hardware, nothing is simple? Well, if it's the old TV-Tube ones, I can tell you flat out "no", I won't work on those. If it's...
Glad you got it figured out. The times when this has happened to me it's usually been a program that tried to get the card or the monitor to go into a video mode that wasn't supported and got stuck....
