    Ok so long story short, my friend dropped a guitar and part of it hit the screen of my laptop. Now ithe screen's basically dead. How much does this kind of repair cost? I've been told ~$500, would this be accurate? -Josh

    Bad memory?

    Both are PC2100 512mb and my mobo is supposed to handle up to 2 gigs. I'm going to return it and get a matching stick of what I have, maybe that'll make it work. I have Kingston, this bad RAM is Corsair.

    Bah, I see what happened now. I was tinkering with the display and must've enabled the Extend Windows Desktop feature on accident. Thanks for the help.
