Display lost colours and resolution after reassembly
So I changed the HD and doubled the RAM on my old iMac.
After reassembling everything works just fine except for the display wich now has lost most colours but blue, and looks blurred due to failing vertical lines.
I DID have some problems attaching the cable to the lcd when reassembling, so I opened up the !^@# thing once again, made sure the connection looks fine, covered it with scotch tape to make i stay .. and same problem.
My guess is it is a connection problem. lots of white lines, all horizontal.
Any ideas of what to do? Or should I just buy a new display data cable?
Questa è una buona domanda?

Tried replacing the new ram with the old. Same problem.

Looking at your display, it definitely looks like a problem with the connection. What was the problem you had re-attaching it?

My problem re-attaching:
I disassembled the connection on the LCD. Photo here: https://twitter.com/solvsteen/status/296...
When reconnecting the "middle thing" - a metal piece with handles on each side - fell off. I found it difficult to attach it again, very little room to work in, but eventually I managed.
I never touched the other end of the cable, the one attached with 2 screws.
