A LCD-device retaining structure of portable electronic equipment is provided, which suppresses any damage of the LCD device such as cracks even if the equipment is subjected to external shock or forces. This structure comprises (a) a first flexible circuit board having a driver IC for driving an LCD device, first terminals electrically connected to the IC, and second terminals electrically connected to the IC; the first terminals being mechanically and electrically connected to the LCD device; the first circuit board having penetrating holes; (b) a second circuit board having specific circuits mechanically and electrically connected to the second terminals of the first circuit board; and (c) a frame member having a lower frame part and bosses extending downward; the LCD device being fixed on an upper face of the frame member; the lower frame part being contacted with the second circuit board to form a space between the member and the second circuit board, thereby fixing the member to the second circuit board and covering the second terminals of the first circuit board in the space; the lower frame part having a window for allowing the first circuit board to enter the space through the lower frame part; the bosses being located near the window and penetrating the holes of the first circuit board to be contacted with the second circuit board in the space.
