My laptop screen is cracked!

I am still trying to use it, but I will have to get it fixed! Does anyone know if you can get a replacement screen for a Gateway NES6R10u ?

My Sis said she found something on line for $60. She said she could install it and pay for half when I get work.

They have like videos on hot to do it and she had to for another laptop before.

This is my life line!

This laptop is also the last thing I have of any value and it is one of the last things Dave gave me. It was the last thing out of love!

I plan to spend very little money so finding a way online from time to time is going to be a big help for entertainment.

He got the laptop free on Freecycle, someone had backed over it with their car. Besides the cracked screen, the underside of the case had a crack...everything worked except the 2/@ key so he switched that to the 2 on the numerical keypad.
He used an online video to see how to do it, like your Sis.

Sis says she can place a new screen on it. All we have to do is get the money next month. I will pay back half when I get to work.

There might be a number of places that sell them: investigate to make sure that the dealer is reputable
