Sager Np8690/ Clevo W860CU Screen Cracked

Hey everyone,

I bought this laptop 11 months ago from GenTech PC.
Everything works fine but yesterday my mom accidentally made a little crack on the bottom of my screen which messed up the entire screen.Now i am not able to see anything.

I contacted Sager but they told me my warranty does not cover accidental damage. So, they asked me to pay $400 bucks just to change teh damn screen. I said to myself, forget it.. it's too expansive.

Now, i am just trying to figure out where i can buy the same screen model that will fit in my laptop so i can install it myself. Also, i am trying to disassemble my laptop to take the screen out but there seems to be this plastic cover that blocks me from taking out the white cord from inverter. I have the screen shots attatched.

Anyway help would be appreciated

Thanks

 

You can download the service manual here.

I have not researched how competitive these prices are.

 

Those prices are BAD.

These people basically get tips as to what the cheapest compatible screens are and then they have a business.

Match the connector type and brand to a screen that says EXACT on Ebay, NOT replacement.

Should be 100$ or less for 1600x900.

 

Do i have to unplug the white cord thing from inverter because i only see the video cable connecting to the screen.

 

Do you guys think the laptop screen on here : https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/screen-part-number/B156RW01~V.0/
will work on my laptop

When i opened up my laptop and checked the screen model it said: B156RW01 V.0 HW3A

 

I found another one selling at $75 bucks.
B156RW01 V.0 LAPTOP LCD SCREEN 15.6" WXGA++ GLOSSY LED products, buy B156RW01 V.0 LAPTOP LCD SCREEN 15.6" WXGA++ GLOSSY LED products from alibaba.com

I am not sure if it is safe though

Any suggetions?

 

On which side is your connector?

 

i will include a picture hold on give me few minutes

 

i do not see an inverter connected to my laptop screen like most of the tutorials done by other people. All i see is video cable doest that mean i only need to deattach the video cable only to replace the screen?

Inverters are to power the ccfl backlight. No CCFL - no inverter...

 

oh lol i am an idiot..haha sorry

 

Try to find yourself a B156HW01 V.4

 

ok i got a new screen today but they gave me a toally different one.

LP156WD1 LG

This won't work on my sager will it..?

 

As long as the connector is in the right place, why wouldn't it?

 

Ok screen seems to be working but i am still getting blue screen of death.

I don't think this is caused by switching to new screen because it started to happen since the day my laptop screen cracked.


'PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA'

Blue screen message i get

Bluescreen occurs right after the screen that says window starting...


So far i tried system restore to earlier date, startup repair , safemode don't work.

Any suggestion?

 

Full reinstall of Windows fixes 99% of the possible issues.

 

I've had to switch my screen in the past for my dell. I don't know if sager has flashing lights to indicate waht wrong, but if your numlock, caps lock, and scroll lock flashes a certain combination, itll tell you what is wrong. I had the problem of a loosened memory stick. Try that first before you wipe everything.

 

I checked my memory sticks they were tightly secured.

I might consider returning the screen (They told me the screen is compatible but they might be lying..?)

Could it be that the screen is not compatible or defective?
