Lg 200 blank monitor, functional front mon...

I have an LG 200 laptop. several weeks ago it began displaying a blue screen saying an error was detected and the computer was shutting down, then that there was a crash dump. After this, the computer would always restart itself and work fine. This happened only if I shut the computer down after use. If i left it hibernating it never had problems turning back on. Last night, after a crash dump, the computer restarted. The small window on the top of the computer worked, the fan came on, most of the lights came on, however the monitor remained black. My dvd light still fickers and I can hear the computer working when i push ctrl alt del to start task manager, but the screen remains black. ive tried the dimmer and everything else, i don't know what could possible be wrong.

In case you were wondering, I let it go on for so long because I'm living in Spain and my warranty is in Nova Scotia and I don't know where compliant repair stores are. Id just like to get a ballpark of what I should tell the maintenance people where I go, or get an idea as to what is most likely wrong.

Thank you!
