HELP,broken LCD

what i have most feared came true the other day, i dropped my laptop by accident and broke the LCD...i cant see anything now, weird lines up and down, weird colors all around now, and it has a crack on the screen..but somehow i cant touch the crack as if it was from the inside that it cracked..
any suggestion in how to fix this problem? btw its an averatec laptop 13.3 inch lcd screen, AMDTurion64 MT-30, 80 gig HD, 512 RAM

System specs
If its still under warranty then take it back, if not, its gonna cost ya to have a new screen fitted, its beyond repair.

Ya, we see busted screens sometimes, can start in multiple hundreds of dollars to get a new screen. You can try the site www.sparepartswarehouse.com. Send them a message asking for a quote on the whole screen, and give them the model numbers etc... They'll get back to you within a day.
