Answers:
You can take the window payne to any glazing company and they will fix it for you, yellow pages should have several listings
if there is an ACO hardware store near you, they can replace glass, at a very economical price, next to nothing.
if you want to replace the entire window...essentially you remove the trim on the inside and outside.then with a sabre saw, cut throw the nails holding the window in, pop the window out,...then you get a new one to fit the rough opening...you shim it up square, nail it in, put insulation between the window and framing, then put up new mouldings, and caulk them, and thats that.
