Hi there:
So I have a 15" macbook pro from June 2008. The computer was working just fine until one day I noticed a small crack in the bezel near the screen, within days there was another crack on the other side and the screen had a gap of about 1/4 in between the screen and the top of the case. Also the hinge part that connects the screen to the keyboard had come apart and there were a few wires exposed. At that point, I couldn't see anything displayed on the screen. I could hear it power on etc. I went to the Apple store and of course they advised me to buy a new macbook pro which I did. They transferred all of my files/downloads to my new laptop and off I went. Now I'm wondering if the old macbook is repairable after all. The geniuses said the hard drive, logic board etc were in good working order. So if it was just a crack in the bezel and case why no display on the screen. Anybody have any idea what I need replaced to get this computer back up and running?
