    Hi,

    I have a Dell XPS M1330 laptop and my screen is broken! :eek:

    I had no idea that this screen is so very special, difficult to get hold of and not to mention expensive!

    Does anyone know where I could get one and repaired for a reasonble price? (London based)

    Many thanks

    id buy the replacement off ebay and download a service manual. if you do it yourself youll save tons of money. if you need someone to do it for you, it would save you money to have the replacement screen already (from ebay).

    the repair takes under 2 hours, so knowing that, get the part and call some places for an estimate.

    for example: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-A-LP154WE2-DELL-XPS-1530-LAPTOP-LCD-SCREEN-GLOSSY_W0QQitemZ200308217771QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item200308217771&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50


    of course make sure its the screen first. i was assuming you shattered it. sometimes its just a broken cable.

    Your link is for a screen for an M1530, not an M1330.
