The first thing to do is consider the age of the computer. If your system is getting close to 4 or 5 years old it might not make much sense economically to repair the computer. If you want to save the data on the computer that is easy enough to do but that is for a future post. Let’s say that your computer is newer, just after the warranty expired, odd how often that happens. Then there is two ways to go depending on how you use your computer.
If you just use your computer at home, never travel with it and leave it plugged in all the time, you might consider just getting a new monitor. By new monitor I mean a flat screen computer monitor, and not fixing the computer screen at all. This approach has the advantage of not needing to tear apart and install anything. You also can get deals on monitors, whereas you will need just the screen made for your computer it replace the screen on your laptop.
Finally you can replace the monitor yourself if you are comfortable working on your computer. You will need to look up the model number of the replacement screen and then do some tear down on your computer, but the advantage is you can have a fully restored laptop that you can take with you anywhere.
