    I have a few laptops from the last days of Windows XP era. The problem with my Fujitsu is the screen has really bad PWM, but the Acer doesn't. They're both LED-lit 15.6 inch screens with 1366x768 resolution. I look on eBay and I see that replacement screens for both have 40 pin connectors located at bottom left. I am tempted to buy a replacement Acer screen and put that into my Fujitsu. Will it work?

    Don't know if anyone can see it, but this is the Fujitsu screen:

    and the Acer screen:

    Seems like perfect match (40-pins, same resolution, same size). I haven't bought the screen yet. Can I risk the swap?
