    hello!

    some time ago, I've noticed little crack of the screen support (back side of the panel).
    I do not remember any force, that could do that. my acer stands ussualy on the desk. if I'm taking it anywhere, I do it with care and use laptop bag.

    anyway, the crack doesn't look like the result of any external force. just when during close panel, crack appears slightly bigger. is it possible, that material in this place was just to weak to handle this force?

    I'm wondering what to do? would you recomend using strong glue to fill this crack? or maybe it's possible to change lcd cover as a warranty repair? (personally I don't think so...)

    I have TravelMate 2313WLMi. now it's about 6 months old.

    regards,

    acer warranty charges about £80 to replace/repair screens.

    If you think the crack will get bigger or is bothering you, then I would get it fixed

    If its only cosmetic, then ignore it
