Things needed:
- External Monitor
- VGA Cable
Take Look At Your AC Adapter
First take a look at your AC adapter. Make sure the AC adapter is secured tightly at the back of your laptop and make sure it's placed in either your wall socket or surge protector. If the socket goes kaput, try another socket.
Adjust The Settings On Your Monitor
Next, adjust the settings on your monitor. The idea behind adjusting your monitor settings is to eliminate the presence of darkness on your laptop display . This is important in case you intentionally turn the settings all the way down. In case you are wondering where the monitor settings keys are, they;re located at the top of your keyboard just below the numeric keys. These keys should help restore the brightness on your laptop display.
Look Out For Any Faint Image On Your Display
After turning up brightness on your laptop display look out for any faint image on your screen. Find the 'LCD closed switch' located on the bottom of the laptop display, perched nicely next one of your display's hinges. This switch helps determine whether your laptop display is open or closed and turns the back-light off appropriately, in case the display is accidentally stuck in the closed position. In that case, tap the switch several times with your finger to get it to disengage. Hopefully it should bring your display back to normal.
Test Your Laptop Display
Next test your laptop display for a return to optimum performance or whether it needs to be replaced. To accomplish this, get an external monitor and hook it up to your laptop. You can accomplish this through a VGA cable from the external display port, located at the back of your laptop, and into the external monitor.Now turn on both the laptop and the external monitor. If the monitor displays properly,the fault lies with your laptop display. However, if no image shows on the monitor, the motherboard is the culprit here. This spells doom, meaning you need to get a new laptop.
