I did a quick search, but didn't see much.
A friend just gave me an HP Pavilion ZT1000 series laptop.
Nothin special, but hey, it's free
Problem is: the LCD shows only a complete white screen.
He said it started doing it awhile ago when you just barely lifted the "lid" of the laptop. But when you opened it all the way, it would work fine. Close it a bit = all white screen.
Then one day it just went completely white all the time (even at fully open).
It works FINE on an external monitor.
I found THIS site with the exact model I have here in front of me, and it's *seems* pretty easy to take apart... could something be loose in there? or do I need a replacement LCD??
Any and all help appreciated.

Also... how do I find the exact screen size?? I'm a mac guy, and PC's are new to me. It seems to measure at 15 inches, but there's also screens that are 15.1?? is there a system settings where it'll show screen size?
