Netbook help URGENT - Black Screen Laptop

[Amature Programmer]

hey guys my mums netbook turned on but the screen stays black and the mouse light stays off plz urgent help

More post to hardware or general i clicked this by accident

[grr]

Does this happens always, even if u restart?

Do u have an external monitor/screen to connect the netbook & see if anything is displayed?

Is it possible to restart in to safe mode?

I'd connect an external monitor to it, see if it's dead or not. And moved to the hardware section.

1. Does this happens, even if u restart?

2. Could you try restarting in to safe mode?

3. Do you have windows repair CD?

AP, I've heard of laptop monitors that died a day after the person bought them.

If you could find some way to test the actual computer itself... then I could suggest some more options.

Dont you have a PC monitor which you could use? Just plug it into the VGA port

guys it shouldnt be dead its not that old and i dont have an external monitor to plug in :S

I think that answers the question above...

Anyway, what happens when you restart it?

[ding-dong]

if theres a beep count the beep then analyze it to the manufaturer of you netbook let say hp goto the hp site then read about the beep that you heard, if no beep sound when you restart it i think that will be serious problem might be the board itself.

its a netbook not a laptop ,netbooks generally don't have a vga socket ,check its still under warranty if so send it back ,other than that lose vga cable ether on the mobo or at the back of the screen ,could also be bad inverter or dead screen
