I have a 2 1/2 yr old HP Pavillion $999 that just went blank on 1/2 the screen. It seems to function alright, otherwise. I use it three times a week for gigs, but can work around for awhile. I am guessing the video card went bad. Would you try and fix it, or buy a new one ?

I guess it would depend on the estimate, but I have to have dependabiliy.
