My 5 year old dropped the Compaq laptop!! It seems to be working fine but the
screen is cracked/broken with what looks like to be a black and blue ink in a
blob and then some invisible cracks running diagonal up the lap top screen.
Is there anyway to fix/clear the screen or does it need to be repaired? What
do you think would be the cost to repair the screen? It is now out of
warranty so that is not the option and it probably would cost to much to mail
back to HP. Any suggestions??
 
Janet, this forum is for Windows XP Embedded issues. You might want to try a
Compaq laptop specific forum like this:

That being said, you'll probably need to take the laptop to a computer
repair shop. The inky blob and cracks are a good indication that there's
something that broke in the hardware, and there's probably nothing you can do
with software to fix it. Screens on laptops aren't easy to replace either, so
you'll probably want to have professionals take a look at it, rather than
trying to install a new one yourself.
