    Hello Notebook Review people. My little cousin destroyed my laptop the other day. Need a new screen and I've never done this before. Would really appreciate some help.

    My laptop specs:

    Dell Studio 1555
    4 Gig RAM
    2.4 Ghz Duo Core
    512MB HD Mobility Radeon

    The original screen was 1366 x 768 res, 15.6 inches, widescreen.

    I've seen a youtube video online on how to replace the screen and it seems straight forward enough, but what screen should I get that will be guaranteed to work? If you could point me to a good replacement I'd be very grateful. I live in the UK.

    I'm also interested in upgrading the screen to 1080p but I don't know if this will result in system conflicts or hardware problems. Really hope you guys can help me out. Thanks a whole bunch.
