I fixed my Windows 7 Laptop!

Post by windows7fan »

Now I can finally experience my PC simplified on the go or anywhere! Before the screen was broken so I had to use it as a desktop xD!

That's really cool that you replaced the panel itself. I would've just replaced the entire screen assembly.

The specs are Intel Core i5-2450m 2.50GHz, 6GB 1333MHz RAM, 500GB SATA SSD, Intel HD Graphics 3000:) I like to use iTunes to listen to music and sync my iPod Classic, I use Windows Live Messenger and Discord a lot, and I play games like Minecraft and Halo on it too:) I also use Firefox 115 but it is skinned to Firefox 4 using Echelon. Yea I did not find any display assemblies online so I just replaced the panel. Luckily the repair was not too difficult!

That doesn't sound promising. Did it fry itself?
