Maybe.

That's the best answer you'll get, with the amount of information
that you've given.

Oh, don't be so negative, Notan, I've give him a definitive YES! 8*)

[If it's covered under your warranty, you won't care, if it isn't, you
are better off buying a new machine and selling the remains of the old
one on eBay.]

LCD screens in laptops can be replaced, but it's not always economically
feasible. The cost of a screen replacement may exceed the cost of a new
laptop, especially if you have it done "conventionally" (e.g. you send
the laptop to an authorized service center to have it replaced with a
brand new part obtained directly from the laptops manufacturer's parts
department).

However, it's often possible to find a replacement LCD screen from other
sources (very often E-Bay) for $30 to $150, and given a laptop with a
broken screen and a good screen, any competent laptop technician can
pretty easily replace the screen in under 30 minutes.
