Cracked T40 Screen. Need replacement

#1 Post by TarzanBoy » Tue Jul 21, 2009 10:10 am

My Thinkpad T40 2374-BU7 got a small crack in the corner of the display (from a drop) which has just become a quartz-leaking crack that stretches all the way across the screen.

I need a replacement screen. Does anyone have any?

Also, how difficult or hairy will the installation for the replacement be? I have some soldering skills, but I just want to know what I am getting into first!

Thanks

The easiest thing to do is just swap the entire lid.

Check your PM in 5 mins... :D
