i was replacing my screen on the canon SD800IS.
i originally got a white screen indicating the ribbon cable wasn;t in properly. i reseated the ribbon cable and turned the cam,era on again and now it's dead. No lights on anywhere. i've tried charging the batteries and running of a USB cable and get no lights. Any ideas?
thanks

Sounds like you need to also reseat the skinny ribbon cable. Believe this is the one that provides power to the backlight:
