Replacing a computer monitor should take less than 10 minutes. First shut off the computer. Unscrew and unplug the (blue or white) video cable for the monitor from the back of the computer, and unplug the monitor power cable. Then remove the old monitor from the desk, replace with the new monitor, and plug it into the video and power plugs. Start your computer and once it has started, adjust the resolution and refresh rate to match the specifications for your monitor.

When can you open your monitor to service it?
You should NEVER try to open up a computer monitor and service it yourself. Computer monitors and TVs have very high voltage capacitors inside them which can electrocute you even when the unit is unplugged. If the monitor seems repairable, take it to a professional. Otherwise just replace it.
What should you do if your monitor doesn't work?
take it to a computer engineer.

Is it ok to just replace computer as its very slow but keep the key board and monitor would they be compatible with a new PC?
Sure. But you are right about compatibility issues. Your new computer should have more than 2 USB ports. If your current key board and monitor use a USB plug in, or can be adapted to USB, you should have no problems. Take your keyboard and monitor with you, or at least take the cords when you shop for your new computer to make sure everything will work together. One thing - most computers from the big box stores like Best Buy come packaged with keyboard and monitor. For the money, that might be the best way to go.

How can you set up a computer with 2 to 4 video screens?
To enable multiple monitors, your computer must have multiple monitor outputs. These outputs can take many forms (such as VGA or DVI outputs) and your monitor will need to have the same plug type as the output. This may (and most likely) will require that your computer have multiple video cards. If your computer currently uses built in video, to add another monitor, you will need to purchase and install a new video card as well as a new monitor. Windows currently has fairly robust multiple monitor support and after installing the second monitor will most likely autodetect it and "extend" your desktop onto your new monitor.
