    My netbook screen seems to be cracked inside, and the display is ruined. :(

    Is there a shop in Dublin that will repair/replace the screen to working order? If so, what kind of cost would this run?
    Many thanks in advance.

    There is plenty of places, and it's easy enough to do yourself.

    Where are you based?

    A netbook screen (Usually) shouldn't cost more then €90 to have replaced and installed using a company.
    D.I.Y. should cost around €50 Depending on the size/make of the screen.

    Thanks Allyall for the info.
    I'm not a computer wizard, but am happy to take on other DIY work... maybe I'll fix it myself and save a bit on cost.
    How do I find out what type/size of screen I need? I guess those can be ordered online? Any suggestions on where to order?

    Is it an acer one by any chance? I replaced a screen on one of these with one sourced from eBay. Anyone could do it, literally screw out , screw in.
