Hey...

Yesterday my friend accidentally stepped on my Acer aspire one laptop (which was on the floor, stupid me...)

Now the screen looks like this:

Is there any way to fix this at home, and if not, how much do you think it would cost to fix?

Thanx

Possibly, if they have one for your monitor I guess. They look kind of pricey.

it looks like you just broke the glass protector... rip it apart and buy a new peice of glass and glue that **** back on

There looks to be a patch of dead pixels in the middle. That monitor is gone.

Tear down the laptop, grab the part number off of the back of the lcd, look online for replacement screens, buy one, then install it when it arrives. If you've taken apart a laptop you'll probably want to have a tech at a shop do it(not Geek Squad)

Is your friend going to pay to get it fixed? He should. You could always go to small claims, though that would suck for the friendship.

My dad would always use the philosophy that if it's on the floor and I tread on it, it's your fault for leaving it there. The screen would be pricey, but personally i'd value a friendship more than material possesions.
