My kitten knocked my boyfriends laptop off the table and now the screen doesn't work.. well not unless you hit it.. then it comes on for a few seconds.
Hooked it to my monitor and everything else works great.
Any ideas on what i can do to repair it myself (feel guilty!) as home insurance doesnt cover it (grr...). Detailed instructions would be good as im a novice in fixing the internal bits.. and the only person i know who can do it is my ex.. which i dont think is going to happen lol.
Thanks!

Wow, hate to say this, but it sounds to me like your kitten disconnected the signal cable.
To try to outline the steps needed to remove a flatscreen from a clamshell-case and reconnect the signal cable from either end... not likely. You may even need special tools like a star-driver.
This can be done, but it is trixie...
You might consider ponying up the hundred fifty bucks or so it would take to get a pro to bang this thing for you.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this loks like a shop-job from here.
