Hey. So I managed to knock my LG Flatron LCD Monitor, which cost me over £250 when i bought it :(, off the edge of my desk. It seems to have landed on my mouse, therefore cracking. It seems that the (excuse my limited knowledge :p) outter screen has not been damaged, but if i feel the screen it feels like think Broken Ice, if you will... 3/4 of the screen went white when turned on and a mass of multicoloured lines runs through this white background. The other 1/4 of the screen works as normal. Does this damage sound repairable or would the cheaper alternative be to simply buy a new monitor? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.

You have broken the glass of the LCD panel. This has conductors on it running to all the pixels and these are now broken, hence the white area.
To fix it you would need to replace the panel which is the most expensive part in there. It is not worth it.
Sorry, you need a new monitor.

It would probably cost more to repair the broken screen , if it can be repaired at all, then it would to replace the monitor.
