I have an Imac with a cracked screen. The monitor image is good except for a little discoloration around the spidered crack lines. The crack is spreading out 2 - 3 inches in all directions from the impact point.
Is there anything I can do to stop any more spidering of the crack? Will the screen eventually fail?
Any advice much appreciated.

First off, you wanna get it fixed as soon as possible.
Call Apple, they'll have you package it up and ship it to them. They'll replace the screen and send it back when they're done.

Secondly, its really hard to see any problem with your attatched photo..., perhaps a better photo could give us a better idea of whats going on.

lol im looking at this photo thinking wow thats a terrible crack, then i realized, oh ... thats the scratch i accidentally put on MY monitor...

yeah i cant tell anythings wrong from that picture, when i cracked my LCD (im never going back, all i did was TURN IT ON and it cracked and now the crack is all the way across the screen, and everything on the screen is white

okay incomplete sentence, you get the point

surfyak,

I feel for you man, I really do. I've gone through 2 LCDs in the last 2 years, I'm now on my third! not much you can do about it send it back to apple, or if they won't take it back you are gonna have to buy a new one

Here is a link whereby you can find your nearest Service Provider, to get it fixed/replaced
