To whom it may concern,
I recently lost the use of my laptop screen. I discovered this forum through a Google search. Upon discovering this is a common issue, I attempted to rectify the problem using the suggestions I saw. So far, nothing has worked, so I am hoping that I will be able to get some help.
The symptooms I have are:
1) The screen is black, with no display of any kind.
2) The caps lock light flashes once every three seconds.
3) Removing the battery and AC adapter, letting it sit for a few minutes, replacing one at a time, and replacing both at the same time, have no effect.
4) All lights on the right side of the laptop are light and remain solid, no flashing.
5) There is no apparent activity from the hard drive.
6) The fan works as it should.
I have all the most important items on my laptop backed up, so there is little I need to worry about should the computer drive need to be wiped.
