SOURCE: my macbook wont come back from sleepmode its

Hold down the power button for about 15 seconds... the computer will power off completely. Then you can restart... This problem is a result of a hard drive safety device that will lock up the computer to protect against sudden jolts and shocks... It's more evident when the power adapter isn't hooked to the computer...
When opening your macbook, keep it still, level if possible...that will make a difference...
Here's further discussions and ideas...

Let me know if you have success!

Later MacBook (Pro) use a mini-DVI connector that does not pass analog needed for composite or S-video. Was yours ever working? And most DVI connectors do not pass sound as seen by your cabling. You cannot detect display through RCA. You just set it in Sys Prefs :: Displays, try some other settings, although your seem right.
I have a white early-2009 MacBook and mini-DVI to HDMI adapter (monoprice <$10) and HDMI cable and have not connected the TOS-link for sound, yet--just slideshows at 1920x1080. You will get a much better picture digitally. -Ken

SOURCE: MacBook 13" starts but screen is barely visible.....

could be your inverter board, whitch controls the backlight. I could very well be the backlight as well, but that is less likely. Inverter boards are not all too expensive, and if you are knoledgable with laptops, i would say doit yourself, but if you have any doubts, take it to apple, sur it will cost more, but it is the safet bet.

How to install D-link DIR 300 for MACBOOK
You shouldn't need to install anything off the CD. Simply plug your Macbook into the DIR-300 via ethernet (making sure you manually set your Macbook's IP to 192.168.0.x (where x is anything from 2-254). Then open up your web browser and type 192.168.0.1 into the address bar. This will log you into the DIR-300 (I think the default login is "admin" with no password).

Refer to the manual for the configuration for the rest of your setup.
