Broken screen

I dropped my G570 laptop and the screen is wrecked. Lenovo have quoted approx £200 to replace and rpair. Could I buy a screen online? How much would that cost? Someone has offered to do the repair ifor me if I can get a compatible replacement. Thanks in advance for any advice, I am devastated at the loss of my laptop, it is less than a year old.

I need to install the HP drivers on a laptop with a broken screen in order to get VGA port to work.

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1
Hewlett Packard Model: 2000 2a20ca Notebook
Oh my god please give me some insight here, it is so hard to find the right answers and I refuse to lose to this technical box that's driving me nuts! So here's the run down:
My screen broke on laptop...fine. It was connected via HDMI to TV and working fine. Until one day it decided to not turn on. I think due to Windows updates and hubby had no patience so kept restarting
I tried to reload Windows on it, not thinking about the drivers, and I'm pretty sure I managed to reload Windows. Now I need the drivers to install chipset, networking etc. (which I have a disc for)
The problem is I cannot see the screen in order to click "install", I can't see the BIOS or the boot sequence. Ugh! And even if I could, the drivers are not installed to use the CD ROM or VGA port.
I can HEAR Windows start up and turn on! Doo-DO-Doo-DO lol the darn thing is working!
The monitor works in my other laptop.
Would/Should the VGA monitor work if I could get it to start in safe mode?
I've heard of a program that can streamline the driver's into a Windows installation disc so everything is installed altogether but how can I reinstall Windows if the drivers aren't loaded for the CD ROM?
Is there a way to get the necessary drivers installed? or is this notebook now garbage?

1. The model number is the first thing at the top aside from the OS.
2. In my explanation it states: "I have the drivers on a disk"
Thanks for all your help!
Getting the drivers is not the problem. Getting the drivers installed on a laptop with a broken screen...is the problem.
Ok, well sometimes you can't use external monitor to see what is happening in some laptops and the only real way to fix this is to fix the broken screen so you can reformat and resinstall the system again. Those are you only options at this point in time.

How do I use an external Monitor to access files on my iMac with a broken screen?

I have an 20 inch desktop iMac with a broken screen. It is the files on the computer that I wish to recover, after that, I can be on my merry way. Unfortunately, VileVault was on (Not my choice), and for some reason, when I target the disc image of the broken mac with a new one, ONE of the accounts "appears" to be completely empty. All of the accouts were running FileVault, but only one (mine) failed to be transferred because it is "empty". I refuse to believe that my files are actually all gone, because theoretically there should be nothing wrong with the CPU itself, just the screen.
Thus my goal is to use a monitor on my broken screen iMac and simply log in and access my files normally, and perhaps pull them out with a USB or something. I have a DELL monitor, and a DVI (The big hairy plug with screws I think) converter that works with my old iMac, along with the male/male DVI cord. However, when I hook it up, nothing happens. I have tried booting the old CPU while holding F7, and option as I read on a forum, and neither produced results.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to 1. Get the monitor to simply show what's going on on the mac? or 2. Pull out my files through some other means?
Thank you.

If you have a second Mac computer, you may want to try to copy over as many files you can. One way is to use target disk mode.

How would I be able to pull up all of the text messages tat were in my phone over the course of 2 years and back them up to my computer since my phone has a broken screen and can no longer read the mesages.

If the messages are stored on the device and you can power the device up you can use the application posted at https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/770529 , the application has a screen capture option and you can use the screen as a guide to install MyBackup from Market or a number of backup apps from Market and then you can run the applications and backup data to your SD Card to restore to the replacement device.

What is the cost of replacing iphone 5(broken screen, out of warranty) with a higher model maybe 5s? In India.

Hi,
Yesterday i dropped my phone and the screen got shattered. The phone is working fine. but the screen is cracked.
After searching through the internet, i found out the following options:
Getting Out-of-warranty Replacement.
Getting the screen repaired by Apple Store.
I am located in India and had bought the phone from India only.
So my questions are?
What is the cost of getting an out-of warranty replacement for iPhone 5?
Can i get a replacement for a higher model of iPhone( maybe 5s or upcoming iPhone 6). If yes, how much extra i'll have to pay?
Is it possible to repair the broken screen in India? if yes, what will be the tentative cost?
Thanks.

The price of getting the screen replaced in the US on the 5 is $150, and it is only available on the US as of now.
iPhone 5 screen replacement at an non-official Apple retailer is $75-90
Should the OP decide to go that route, he will be forfeiting future support from Apple, both in and out of warranty
A new/refurb 16GB iPhone 5 from Apple is ~$400
A used 16GB iPhone 5 on Craigslist or Swappa is ~$275-350
Apple no longer sells the iPhone 5. They keep a number of units on hand for out of warranty service, which is $269 in the US.
Buying from Craiglist (or on-line) is usually risky as the phones turn out to be not what they are advertised as.

My iPhone 5c has a broken screen and won't let me swipe. I got a new iPhone 5c, but want my stuff to backup to it. I haven't backed my old one up in over a year because the storage is full. How would I back it up to iCloud on a Dell or Toshiba computer?

Hi Linda Loo Loo,
If you have backed up previously to iTunes on a specific computer, even if it has been a while, you may be able to still backup even if you are unable enter the passcode on your iPhone due to a damaged screen. You may find the following article helpful:
If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

How do I transfer files from my old macbook air with a broken screen to my new macbook air?

I've got a broken screen on my old macbook air and I can't see ANYTHING AT ALL on it.

I have a broken screen on my 2008 MacBook, I want to access the hard drive what are my options?

I Have a 2008 MacBook with a broken screen, how can I access the hard drive?

1. Connect an external monitor. If everything else is working fine on the MacBook, you'll have full access to your computer. Or
2. If the MacBook has a FireWire port, use Target Disk Mode (http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1661) to mount the HDD and then copy the files to the second Mac. Or
3. Remove the HDD, put it in a $20 USB caddy, and connect it to another Mac for file-retrieval.

Connecting a DELL monitor to a broken screen G4 powerbook

Hi
I want to connect a tft monitor to a broken screen G4. Can I do this without being able to use the computer screen to configure the settings.
......I was thinking about a std VGA connection into the mini DVI via an adaptor......but then realized it might not be the 'plug and play' simplicity I had first thought it might be.
Maybe someone has done this and had some success!
thanks
Ral

You might want to repost in the 12-inch PowerBook area instead of the 17-inch forum. My 17" has a full-size DVI port, not the mini, so finding people who've tried multiple adapters may be easier in the other forum.
Still, I believe that, as long as the computer detects the second display at startup, it should "just work."

Verify your Powerbook G4 you have is indeed a mini-DVI and not a mini-VGA port Powerbook G4. There were in fact two distinct releases!
Given you posted in the 12" Powerbook G4 forum, note these images:
the port is a mini-DVI.
the port labeled "6" is a mini-VGA.
Use the F7 key to toggle to external display.

Broken Screen... HELP! DVI/S-Video

Hello Apple Friends,
I recently bought a 2nd hand Titanium G4 Powerbook off a guy I know. I had used it before, and knew it to be a good machine. Unfortunately, the warranty has run out, but then the hinges went. I knew they were about to go and just wanted to use it as a desktop. Unfortunately, I moved house and the screen must have been knocked, and now I can not get a picture. I can tell the computer is still working fine, but the screen isn't.
I've been told its a DVI model and I can plug it into an external screen either using a DVI cable or an S-video cable. Although I understand that monitors take VGA cables. Does anyone have any experience or advice concerning this?
All help welcome.
Tom

You can obtain displays that use different types of interfaces. Many of the displays distributed by Wintel manufacturers, certainly most cheaper ones, still use VGA, but there are many who are also embracing DVI. Apple, for example, has been using DVI technology for several years; all of the currently shipping Cinema displays are DVI. A 20-inch Cinema display is a great companion to a 15-inch PowerBook (even if it has a broken screen).
Having said that, if you have broken hinges, and the computer was subject to some sort of trauma with that display floating around and not latched, you could have jerked loose the display connectors. If that is what happened, reseating the connectors could possibly fix the video on the internal display.
I'd take the machine to a local Apple service provider or Apple Store. They can verify whether that is the case, and they could also verify that your computer will work with a DVI display (that there is not a bigger video issue of some sort) - I'm sure they'd be more than happy to sell you one, too.

I ruined my iPhone 4s with water, but could I take the screen from the ruined one and put it on a perfectly fine iPhone 4s that has a broken screen?

I dropped iPhone 1 in the toilet and it is water damaged- it still turns on, charges, etc. but I'm pretty sure it's shot because it always wants to turn off, and things don't work all the time. I am wondering if I can take the screen off this one and put it on another iPhone 4s that has a broken screen but works fine otherwise. Do the screens have some sort of electronic part that could be damaged by water, or is it possible to switch the screens?

Are you capable of doing such? If so, go for it.
If both devices are the same model, there is no reason why it would not theoretically work.

My iPhone 4 has broken screen, how can I reset it with iTunes

My iPhone 4 has a broken screen. The lock button sometimes works. I need to reset it, can I do this with iTunes. Also, how can you get onto the screen that shows you what phone is connected

You can reset the device through settings > general > reset > reset all settings.
You can restore the software of the device through iTunes.
Depending on your computer operationg system ( Mac or Windows) you will need to find the menu bar ( File, Edit, View...etc) and click View > Show Sidebar.

What is the most cost effective way to have a broken screen repaired?

What is the most cost effective way to have a broken screen repaired?

One thing to bear in mind, if your iPad is still under any sort of warranty, using any unauthorized repair place may void that.
So you may find less expensive places that are non-authorized, but once you use them, Apple disowns your device and if you have any warranty left, it'll be void.

Have a broken screen, can I hook up external

Hi guys, I have a broken screen, is there anywhere if I hooked it up with a external screen. Like I tried hooking it up to my tv but basically the tv was a seperate screen in itself and wasn't apple to see the login propt screen. My screen is so bad I can't see hardly anything, just lines ands tuff, any hope here to still use it with a external. Also is it possible to put another computer of the drive of the powerbook. Thanks
Nathan

Hi Nathan,
If you are talking about an iMac, I don't really know much about them. On my PowerBook the F7 key is the mirror key for monitors. You might try that to see if the TV reflects your desktop.
If I understand the last question on your post, you can hook your computer up to another computer with a firewire cable then start yours up while holding down the T key to put it into Target Disk Mode. Your hard drive icon to show up on the other computer.
