   You could take the work and replace the LCD with a new one, I see there   
   is at least one seller on ebay who has the LCD:   
   https://www.ebay.ca/itm/192347292502   
      
   To find other sellers just search for "replacement lcd for Compaq   
   Presario CQ61-330SS" at your favorite search engine.
