Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted August 25, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted August 25, 2011 So, I have a working laptop. Except the screen is broken. I also have an unworking laptop, meaning it can't be powered up, but the screen is fine. Is there anyway I can connect the working laptop with the broken screen to the unworking laptop with the good screen? Probably not. But I have googled...no help really. TIA.

vampyromaniac Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 If they're the same model it should be piss easy, If they're not but are the same size screen there's a chance you can swap them over if they have the same connection which you won't really know till you open them up. I've changed my own screen twice & it took about five minutes, literally the hardest part was being careful not to snap the screen bezel when taking it off. Screen cost me 71 quid the first time & 61 the second time, so if the lappy's in good nick it's worth buying a new screen (& a whole lot cheaper than buying a new one or getting it fitted!)

Â Same if you have an lcd/modern tv, most have vga plugins, all you'd need is a cable on you can pick those up very cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
