How to Replace the LCD Screen in a Laptop (Tutorial)

This is my instruction video. I am using a Toshiba Satellite L45. Sorry about my bad filming skills. You will often see my dad do some of the work in the video =P

I am just a teenager and not a computer specialist. This was a tutorial I made for fun. I will likely not be able to answer EVERY question.

Uh. I broke my entire LCD. I cannot see ANYTHING on my 10' toshiba. Do I just do that????

@Artys10 Yep! It ought to work.

Hello, I have a Satellite L305D and I recently thought the Lighting on the screen had broken, But I realize the connection of the lighting is just loose, (Figured it out randomly when my brother went to get on WoW [we have it connected to an External mon] ) My question, if I follow this guide, would I be able to get into the internal casing and secure the connection of the light?

@Radutsepesh probably

we tryed this and my husband got some liquid stuff on his hand ... is it dangerous, to breath or to come in skin contact with that liquid? ty!

[Absoltastic]

@mjcp25 no clue. Just have him thoroughly cleanse his hands.

[Artys10]

@Absoltastic I had to buy a new LCD. Except..I think it only has 4 screws...........I think. I can't see the screws on the top after i took out the rubber stuff.

I would only like to ad that $170 is really expensive to invest in an older laptop. I know you can get screens on ebay (nothing wrong with used) for less than $30. You can be an awesome computer on ebay for $170 working.
