Have you tried doing a restore with the backup disks, They usually ask one to create these disks when you get your computer. It is possible the wire that run through the hinge assembly have chafed and shoorted if the computer is a laptop. But you did say PC. A white screen can also mean that you may have to re-install the monitor software. There always the possibilty that your monitoris just in need of replacing. P.S.If you bought it with a visa card, visa automatically doubles manufacturers warraty!!! They also have an extended warranty for around $70.00. It is a 4 year warranty!!! Good luck, hope I helped. Pleasel let me know if this solves your problemm and post that it was solved on the fixya site.
Try connecting an externalmonitor to the Dell Inspiron and see if the white screen is also presenton the monitor. If the monitor display is fine, then your laptop's LCD displaypanel is defective. If the monitor also displays the white screen, then yourproblem is with either the video card or motherboard located inside yourlaptop.Also try booting the computer in safe mode by tapping the key when you turn it on. If it works that way you might have a video software driver issue.
Try booting up from a recovery boot up CD. This will test whether it is a hardware or software issue. If there's no white screen with the CD boot, then it could be a malware or some other driver/program corruption. If however, the white screen still shows up during a CD boot, then it could be an overheating issue due to a cooling fan blockage (the fan may not turn on at all). Or it could be the monitor itself in which case I'd suggest you try connecting the laptop to an external (LCD) monitor and see if the problem then persists. Hope it all goes well for you. If any of my suggestions work, please do rate me. Thanks
You can update graphics driver, if that does not fix the issue check the display on external monitor. If the external monitor works fine you can isolate checking the display in BIOS Setup scree (Restart your computer and keep tapping F10 to getinto BIOS). If the same issue in BIOS, you may have to change display of the unit.
Hello Karthik, This must surely be a problem with your monitor, because you say that you see the white screen while boot up. If this is a graphic driver issue, you may have the problem after booting up in windows. Since its been only a month old laptop, the product must be in warranty for sure. Take away any CDs in the drive, any USB drives and see if this white screen appears. Let us know.
your LCD panel cable could be disconnection. you need do follow steps
1) open LCD lid front cover, and loosen lid back cover, looking for a cable and a plug (plug in the socket) at back of panel, take out it clean all pins then reseat it.

Try uninstalling the TS from the control panel-system-devices (hardware).
Reboot and reinstall the drivers when asked.
The driver must match the OS.
The TS may be defective, does it operate proper on another Pc?
your monitor is telling you it's on it's last legs..either that or your compaq has a bad video section. either is more vital than a video cable being loose.
try this test:
put your PC into hibernate mode after the event of ..."After about an hour in this state, the screen will, after a further power on and off, resume normal operation. Functions perfectly...". Then force a hibernate state (START-SHUT DOWN-hold shift while hover STANDBY). Now, while in hibernate state, force a "resume Windows" state (space-bar on my PC). Any change on display to note? Hoping you answer yes, it is better now. If so, then continue with hibernate mode.
