My kids slammed my laptop shut last week. If I am diagnosing this issue accurately (based on the photos I am looking at from the HP website of different LCD damages), the CID Defect is: Dark spots in localized areas, an example of Mura defects
Two black spots, mostly white lines.
I have plugged my laptop to the TV with HDMI cable just to see if internally it still works, and it does (thankgod!) My question is, what part (number? code?) do I need to order a replacement LCD? Also, anyone know ballpark figure of repair in Queensland, Australia? I figured if I buy the part and bring it with me to get someone to repair it, it would cost less (would this be a smart or naive move??) Any kind of advice would be greatly appreciated!
