Problem fixed. The screen surround came off easily to reveal the inverter circuit board. Having retrieved some useful data from "laptopscreensdirect" I made a simple resistor network across the output to the CCFL (lamp). It allowed me to measure the output using a multimeter, Looking for 200v rather than 20Kv. On switching on the lappy the meter flickered and then indicated 0v. I purchased a replacement inverter online from the above web-shop. Easily replaced, my screen was running within minutes.
