Laptop Help

[BlazerWookee]

I cracked the screen on my Acer Aspire laptop, and took it to a local guy who said it would be a piece of (pretty expensive) cake. His estimate was one hour of labor, plus the price of the new screen. He ended up taking two and a half hours, and when he finished, he couldn't get the power to come on at all. No lights, no nothing. Anyone know if I'm screwed, or is there a relatively simple fix?

depends...what exactly did he replace on the screen? might have shorted something or left a wire disconnected.

 

[BlazerWookee]

He replaced the screen itself. If it was a short, shouldn't there be some sort of reset button?

 

[BTOWN_HUSTLA]

nope. some have a small switch but usually they are transistors if he didn't ground himself....or perhaps he disconnected part of the power supply and forgot to plug it back in?

Use the insert key.
