LCD Replacement Screens

Post by ©LINT »

Where is the best place to buy laptop LCD's from? I have searched google but just curious if anyone knows some other place.

Used or new is fine.. It's for an Acer Aspire 4520.

Thanks!

From this guy on Ebay. I have bought over a hundred from him. Fast shipping too.

Is the LCD broken, or is it just an inverter board?

Ditto MegaVectra.

Though, sometimes if you want on the real cheap & have time to wait, I get the part numbers & models that are compatible & wait for someone to post one for $.99

So the screen came as expected but there is a line about a quarter of the way down, all the way across. Let's hope this guy is easy to deal with too!

Is there anything else that could cause a line? Is it just a bad LCD or something with the laptop?

It's the LCD, nothing else that would cause that.

I restarted the computer after updates and it's gone. That's really strange.

haha that is Strange.. Could have just been a connector that might have been seated funny, but usually it's something in the LCD. I only say that because I have a few junk lappys at the office and one of them has a line like that, I can swap it between the 3 or 4 of them and it follows it lol

My LCD's do that on rare occasion (freaks me out every time). Generally a restart fixes it. Guess it could be a driver board issue or possibly a connection.
