Not sure if it'd help but I found schematic diagrams for a couple of, what I think are, related products of Asus.

A/K42Jr (same chipset and CPU offerings, but with HD5470 instead of HD5145): HERE
K72JK
(same specs as my A42JK, but with 17.3" screen): HERE

Hopefully someone here on the forums can inform me on whether the LVDS actually goes through the iGPU of the Core i3/i5 of this series. Since if that's how it works, the i7 would definitely not work as it doesn't have an integrated GPU.

Thanks.
It use different R8043 & R8029 for CPU with 45 W.
HD 5145 is connected to LVDS directly on these schematics.

Does that mean the death knell of this mod project? Undecided  Seems like the design is made just for the 35W and lower processors, by the sounds of it.
I think so...
