My display broke this Friday. It looks similar to the first post in this thread but I can't for the life of me think how my screen got broken, so I don't think it takes much to break the LCD

If you push down hard on the display, do you see white lights where you push? If you've got the same problem as me you can coax a bit of an image from the display by doing this.

A good suggestion from other threads I've seen has been to use the tv out and check everything else on the device. Unfortunately I can't find my tv-out cable right now :@

New LCDs are about 40 quid in the UK on ebay. Some sellers provide instructions and others provide the tools you need.

I think this video needs slowing down But this guy managed to replace the screen himself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDQ81cahD1c
