Very coherently explained - you'd make a good teacher! My Dell goes dark across one side of the screen. Plugged it into an external monitor and I get a bright, clear output, so I guess it's either the LCD cable or the LCD screen. Fingers crossed - will get back and let you know the results.

Hi Robert, I am having same issue as you. After replacing the bottom cage of the laptop because hinges were broken, once put together, screen was faint. Can barely see anything. However, when connected to external monitor, laptop works as expected. Though can not see anything on the laptop screen. Were you able to fix your issue? if yes, what did it for you?

Just an FYI: For me and the Samsung Notebook 7, Windows updates replaced the display driver which was causing the black screen. Every time after an update the computer came on but nothing appeared on the screen. Plugged it up via HDMI to the tv and it showed everything working perfectly fine. I had to hunt down an older driver and install it. Before replacing the hardware, make sure the dreaded Windows updates aren't ruining your older laptops.

Wow! Resetting ram chips solved it! Really grateful to you!

I tried replacing my keyboard on my Dell G3 3579 and now it won’t boot. After pressing the power button it turns on, has a blank screen and the fans seem to go into overdrive. After 10-15 seconds it turns back off. I’ve tried reconnecting all cables and resetting the CMOS. After first replacing the keyboard the plastic clip that holds the ram in place broke and I had to switch slots… so now unfortunately I can’t test the original slot. What do you suggest should be my next steps?

Great video. To expand the question just a bit, if I may....my Dell 1545 boots up and displays the screen fine for about 2-3 minutes, then the laptop screen goes blank, but if I have it connected to an external monitor, the image is perfect. Having watched a different video, I successfully replaced the screen inverter, but I still have exactly the same problem. Haven't tried the RAM test yet, but I'll have done that before you have a chance to respond, and of course, if that should solve the problem, I'll update you. But I haven't seen this precise set of symptoms described in any other posts, so I'm wondering what they might suggest to you. Thanks!

Hi! Lovely video. I have the same issue but with a flashing error code from the led by the power. Two amber, two white = no memory. I don’t think this is the actual problem though. I changed the battery a few weeks ago and then last week the cpu fan seemed to stop working. Later the laptop started to do a diagnostic test and beeped loudly saying the fan wasn’t working. I ordered a new fan but in the meantime the laptop continued to work. We just used it for light tasks and it didn’t seem to be overheating. Then I struggled to login as the keyboards was really slow to respond. Now it is at the stage of your video where not even the logo comes up, just the keyboard lights and a little bit of heat from the processor area. The RAM seems fine and I’ve orders a new CMOS in case. I’m tending to think it has gone into a safe mode as it knows the fan isn’t working? Or does the error code mean there’s something more sinister going on, maybe the motherboard? Any help would be amazing thank you

However, when it's hooked up to an extertnal monitor (by pressing the FN button), everything works fine. I've already checked the RAM, CMOS battery and change an entire screen assembly, but the problem persists. I've checked online and apparently there's some type of chip that needs to be re-soldered on the MB. I was wondering whether you can share an insight as to the potential cause of this before I go ahead with soldering. THX. Much appreciated.

I use my monitor with my PS4 and I can't get it to come on. I plugged a reg tv into my PS4 and it displayed the video. Are there other options for troubleshooting the monitor itself? I get the LED light in the power supply but not on the actual monitor.

If the monitor is getting power but nothing is coming on, its most likely the LCD itself of the main board.

Thanks bro it worked

Thanks. If external monitor is fine, but notebook screen is really faded - when I put a flashlight on my phone on, I can see what is on the laptop monitor, is it bad LCD?

My black screen issue occurred right after malwarebytes restart, is it possible that malwarebytes could destroy software preventing the screen from turning on. And could I fix it by simply formatting hard drive?

If your computer turns on but the screen stays black then your on the correct video. Try the steps seen here if your sure the computer is actually turning on.

I usually get most of my parts on sites like Ebay or Amazon. Usually pretty cheap, fast shipping, and pretty good return policies :) Is this your motherboard? www.ebay.com/itm/373665520902?epid=20039231552&hash=item5700335d06:g:v~AAAOSwTBBgtkz~

It will tell you what its reading, yes :) It could be that one was incorrectly plugged in. They come loose sometimes. Well done !!
