If you look at the next thread down...you will see a Plasterboard thread.
LCD is much lighter than a Plasma....it is recommended that you use a number of fixings.

They are teh type that expand behind the plaster board.

I think quoted figures were, pull out force around 60k load strength 10k, per unit, so if you use 8 or so..all is good.
