If the screen is completely white, it could be faulty -- or incompatible. Was it sold as being compatible with an E1405? Notebook LCDs are not universally interchangeable.
The first thing to try is an external monitor - if it doesn't show a good image, it wasn't the screen that was faulty, but rather the system board. If an external monitor DOES show a good image, then you'll need to purchase a compatible screen - you CANNOT simply exchange by screen size. Notebooks work only with those screens shipped by the manufacturer when the system was built - look for a screen known to work with your model system.

Thank you for telling me.
I got new 14.1" WXGA(1280x800) included converter something but it's not working. Just screen on nothing changed. (White screen)

As long as you get one that is known to work iwth an E1405 and it's complete with an inverter and cable, it will work.

This story was......
When I was put it the power button, but screen is black 2 months ago.
I was looking for screen repair shop and I found the shop.
They said, just replace new screen that screen is WXGA (1280x800) Mattle. He said, it's works, but replace fee is expensive for me.
So, I ordered www.screencounty.com same "WXGA(1280x800) Mattle."
I connected cables it was easy and I saw just white screen. so I wondering it is broken too? or it's something not match?
Big problem is I can't return to www.screencounty.com because there is in Canada.
I think about send fee....If I send to there, I think $20 and they send to new screen $20 for me that is just shipping fee.
Also I have to pay more $40 for WXGA (1440x900) original screen.
What should I do? ^.^;;
