Please help. How to change 30 pin to 40 pin connector

[trice22]

Help. Recently purchased a new laptop screen to replace damaged one. My original laptop has a 30 pin connector and the new screen is 40 pins. Can I still get it to work or do I have to buy another screen?

You have to buy a screen that is for your laptop, not just any laptop screen.

Laptop screens are not standardized so you have to buy a screen that is made for your specific laptop. Even if there was a handy adapter it probably wouldn't fit in your laptop.
