What is still wrong with my laptop?
The laptop dropped while open. The screen was severely cracked and lcd fluid leaked. I replaced the LCD screen to the laptop, and initially it was fine. However when the power was cut from the screen, it will now only showed the left half of the screen (the other side black) and was a mirror image so the start button was in the middle of the screen. It is like this immediately from boot-up (do see the whole screen light up when it starts, just nothing is displayed on the right side)
Adding/Removing drivers did not work, nor did a windows recovery. When I plug the laptop into an external monitor, the external monitor looks fine and the display on the laptop shrinks to about only 1/3 of the screen.
Is this an inverter problem, a motherboard problem, a connection problem, a faulty screen problem, or some kind of firmware problem (can't think its a software/driver)

a: You got a faulty LCD replacement.
b: You've managed to break the replacement LCD already, most likey during the install. (there is a reason that professionals exist...)
c: You have a poltergeist. Find an old priest, a young priest, and a bucket of holy water.

If it powers on and the OS loads it is not the hard drive or mother board.
Dropping can damage the hard drive and cause bad sectors on the HD disc.
New Screen, check the cable connection to mother board and screen, replace the inverter, have checked by a computer tech and then repair it.

dirt and dirt accumulation interior the computer. a computer desires to be wiped clean a minimum of as quickly as a 300 and sixty 5 days or extra oftentimes. by ability of wiped clean I propose taken aside and appropriate cleansing the processor (CPU) warmth sink and fan with compressed air. in case you at the instant are not gifted with computer maintenance, basically take to a computer restore save and that they are going to do this for you.
