What is the issue with my laptop?

Dropped it on the floor, and this happened.

And if someone could provide an estimated cost to repair, that would be great

You need a new screen, lets hope thats not a 6920.

Whats the model number?

ouch, that looks nasty :/ maybe see if some computer retailers can give you an estimate, i think they normally are free estimates, depending where you go

New screen needed

Will be around £70 mark for the screen then fit it yourself

Not for this model its a 16" screen so will be £130 updwards. And its a bit more tricky to fit than your normal screen as the bezel can't be taken off fully to access the inverter cable so its a case of pulling it forward as much as you can and lifting the panel out the casing.

My bad...didnt notice where he stated the model number of laptop?

Cant really make it out from photo either (well not clearly at least)

If I move the screen around a bit, I can get about half of the screen to look normal, does this mean the screen is 100% screwed? Or could it be a few loose connections?

Screen cracked and needs replaced

Or just use a ext monitor?
