Default Re: laptop monitor blacked out

Honestly if you can find a screen on ebay for $85 bucks or so they aren't hard to change. Just buy a new screen and swap it out. You'll save quite a bit of money.

I've got a suspicion it's not the monitor. No picture, no start up sounds, no key stroke control. The further I look and play, the more I think it could be the processor. Bummer.

It could also be a loose connector, happens sometimes, especially if the laptop gets bounced around a bit.
