Thanks for the pointers and recommendations. Decided to get it repaired by HP after searching ebay and found that the prices are about the same after adding the shipping cost. Also considering the shipping time and risk i have to take doing it myself.
Got to say that HP did a pretty good job, the whole LCD panel including the top case was replaced and i was able to collect the laptop within the same day. Hope that this replacement will be able to last for another year or 2 before i save enough for a new laptop
extended warranty is a must for those looking for a new laptop
