Although I can not help you, I am a bit curious...

Is that a ribbon cable for the screen, the touchscreen layer, or for something else?

I got mine from an old laptop. A bit too long, but with some folding that got solved.
You can find new ones one sites like aliexpress.com, or specialised electronic component shops ( Farnell, RS,...).

I believe is was a packardbell. It was the ribbon connection the keyboard to the mainboard.
On aliexpress you should check for the correct pitch and an acceptable length. The amount of leads is not important as long as you have at least 6, the rest you can cut off. The disadvantage is that you'll have to buy 100 pcs at once.
Good luck.

Some pictures of the process



first of all I figured out which cable is connected with which pin, the pin number 37 is not connected in the cable I bought (the only one of all we need), but in the original cable this pin exists, I had to obviate it
Image



i soldered the wires carefuly

the new flex cable in the tablet, ready to turn on...

and TADAAAAAAAAA!!! my archos is alive again!
Image



it seems like it works perfectly without the 37 pin
