I have a Copmaq laptop whose screen in not working and is no longer available to buy.

I wanted help, if i could have this laptop opened up and assembled into a CPU cabinet. If there are any such products available.

Thanks for your help!

Register or log in to remove.

Assuming all else is working, why not just remove the screen and hook up to an external monitor?

I doubt you would fine a case to fit anyway.

if the just the screen doesn't work just plug an external monitor into it. there's no reason to open it up and put it in a "CPU cabinet?" you could open it up and try and replace the backlight inverter and check the cables if you want to try and get the screen working , but if you don't know what you're doing you may just break it
