Hi Guys, sorry for posting this question if it was already answered as I didn't see many real answers for this model.
I am looking to upgrade my screen on my laptop. The XGA resolution isn't cutting it for me anymore. I was looking to see if I can upgrade it to a WUXGA screen instead.
Basically, I've upgraded most of the parts i can on this PC (blu-ray, cpu (T9500, second drive for raid 0). Right now I'm facing having to get a new laptop or upgrading this one. I really need a better resolution on my laptop, so does anyone know if there is a WUXGA (or even a WSXGA) screen upgrade somewhere?
When I search around google I see alot for the FX 7 series, think those will work?
Thanks for the help.

I've been diging around and found this one http://www.notebooksolutions.ca/zc/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=5721
or this one http://www.smartmicrousa.com/LP171WU3_TLA2_LCD_SCREEN.aspx
Anyone know if it will work? -
ZFactor answered my question via PM. Thanks to him very much.
But to answer, the LP171WU3 (TL)(A2) is one of the best screens for the 6860, so I ordered that. I will see if I can take screenshots of installing. -
Let us know how it goes. The blu-ray will love the high res.

Posting from my new WUXGA screen, res it awesome, the screen from SmartMicro installed easily, nothing special to do.
Performance is great, looks even better and most of all I have more screen realestate, will be very usefull while coding. Thanks ZFactor for the help.
Again it was the LP171WU3 (TL)(A2) screen that worked, and it is nice.
