ipaq help-touch screen won't respond

[lobe]

I had a great functioning ipaq 1935 model but forgot it was in my pocket, bent forward, it fell out and the lcd screen has cracks in it. Still functions great, but I can't see anything. Sniff.

So I picked up another on e-bay. Worked fine for about a week. Then the touch screen stopped working. Tap all I want. Nothing. Hot keys would work fine-but you can't navigate with those. Then randomly other days the screen would work. Then not.

Any ideas?

If not, is there any place that works on these things where the repairs don't cost more than going out and buying another one?

Thanks.

Have you tried a soft reset? If not might be hard reset time (this will lose all data though).............

Yes, tried it a couple of times. Didn't make any difference.

I could try a hard reset. It would be a pain, but do-able.

Funny, the screen wouldn't work at all yesterday. Today-worked completely fine.

I think a Hard reset may be the only thing left to try - have you got a storage card you can backup to?
