846128 2010-01-05 20:56:00 Hi there,
My wife has cracked her new laptop screen, (stepped on the closed laptop accidentally). I have now passed the stage of lecturing her about how she should be more careful with her things and would like to help her sort out.
Her laptop is a Sony Vaio. Can anyone offer any advice on where to go and approx cost.
Thanks in advance

846130 2010-01-05 21:14:00 Thanks for your reply KD
we have an excess of $500 would the cost be much more than this?

846131 2010-01-05 21:34:00 Does the laptop still go if you plug an external monitor into it?
If it doesn't it may need more than just a new screen.

846132 2010-01-05 22:13:00 I will check, thanks. The monitor on the laptop does still work. DT33 (12171)
846133 2010-01-05 22:19:00 So the laptop screen still works?
The laptop boots and loads the operating system normally?

846134 2010-01-05 23:38:00 The laptop works fine, there is an obvious crack (maybe internally) on the screen DT33 (12171)
846135 2010-01-05 23:56:00 Maybe this'll help with costing (take it to a reputable service agent and get a quote; you could do it yourself, buuut very tricky).
