    Hello, I've a question about where to get referb parts for my Gateway MT6451 laptop. I have a broken hinge to my lcd screen on the left hand side (facing screen) It snaped in two at the first screw. Not sure why, but I need a new one, because this is causeing some issues with my screen blanking out, pretty sure its the reason, it opens funny now too. Thanks to whoever can point me in the right direction!

    No, not yet. I just took it apart and found the broken piece about 10 mins ago. But Gateway usually has horrible customer service. was hoping somehwere else may have something.
