Quick analysis...Before you start worrying about the Shadow Mask, make sure all bridges have been crossed.;-) Kevin...after a while you will be able to look at cracked CB damage and before you even start, depending on number of connections, decide if you even want to waste your time. Considering your time, and having proper tools, scraping, soldering, and can you guarantee it for your warranty. Normally, on Toshiba, any drop will be around the flyback. If the crack has gone beyond that..Do yourself a favour...let it go. -Ed- Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada teltek3@xxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Grabowski" <bgrabowski@xxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 22, 2004 8:37 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Toshiba CF32G40, TAC 9705, what is S1854?
