[QUOTE="txyaloo, post: 11042465, member: 23362"] Hook it up to an external monitor and then try to boot. That's the easiest first step. If something comes up, then either your video card or laptop display are having problems. If nothing comes up, there's other issues. If nothing comes up, I'd remove the access door on the bottom of the system and reseat any components you can see down there. I'd also try removing the RAM and starting the system without it. You should get a series of beep codes. If you get no beep codes, then your motherboard is probably fried. If after reseating everything, getting no beep codes, etc, you still have no boot, then you need to send it. It's hard to troubleshoot laptops without a known good system to swap parts from and most home users don't have one. [/QUOTE]
