Laptops are by far one of the greatest
inventions ever to come across the computer industry. Since you can easily move around your laptop
and take it pretty much anywhere you go, they are generally more prone to
accidental drops and other forms of damages.
The most sensitive part on a laptop, for
obvious reasons, is the screen. Whether
there are dead pixels dimming out the display or a large crack, you will have
to get it changed. Replacing laptop screens may cost you a significant chunk of money,
and you may have to give up your machine for a few days. If you think the service charges are too much
or if you just cannot live without your laptop, then you are better off with
changing the screen on your own. However,
do keep in mind that laptops that are still under warranty are exceptional
cases and it is best if you do not tamper with them.
Replacing laptop screen yourself may seem like a bold step,
but it is actually easier than you think. There is a high probability that the
laptop’s user guide has the part number specified. If not, a simple Google search can do the
trick for you. All you have to do is get your hands on a screen that fits your
make and model and the right screwdriver to deal with those tiny screws present
underneath your laptop, as well as the bezel.
In some laptops, the screen’s connecting
cable is present well underneath the keyboard. Once you have made sure that power supply is
disconnected and the battery is out, you may proceed to unwind the right screws
for the right job. If the keyboard has
to be dismantled for replacing laptop
screen, then make do so with a soft hand as the parts are easy to damage. Also, just to make sure you are on the right
track, compare the part numbers of the new and old screen to make sure they are
same.
Screw up the bezel and put the screw covers
back on once you are sure the new screen is snug in its new home, and then
proceed towards the cable. A loose cable
may cause flickering and damage the screen, so make sure everything is tightly
assembled the way it was before. Plug in
the power once you are done dealing with the screws. As long as you have followed the instructions
carefully for replacing laptop screen,
the results will be positive!
