if you changed the screens to a working one, then you should have a clear image on the main screen, or its damaged, or one of the monitor ribbons is not seated properly. have you updated your graphics driver?
Try Hooking an external monitor to the video output on the back of your computer to see if there is video activity present, if it works then we would suspect the LCD or the inverter board. But if both screens show blank then it could be a hardware issue. I suggest taking it to a computer tech for an estimate if all else fails.
Connect an external monitor and use the computer to check the screen settings. If changing the settings doesn't fix the problem, the screen or the lamp driver needs to be replaced. I have seen many Aspire One with screen problems, appears to be quite common.
The backlight have went out on your screen. I had this happen on an old laptop I was messing with. Check the link below for some tips.
DARK SCREEN
If you shine a light on the screen, can you somewhat see the screen?
Does the laptop power up properly? (can you hear it running?)
Hook up an external monitor to your laptop, does the external display properly?
Possibly the monitor is defective - usually most laptops have a blue plug at the back for an external monitor, if plugging in a normal monitor brings up a screen, then likely the laptop monitor is defective. If you get a splash screen and bios info on trying to start it,it indicates your windows is defective or has lost it's start-up files - a windows reinstall will fix that.
hi,
1.Please keep pressing and releasing F8 key when ACER logo is coming.
2.start the computer in safe mode by selecting it in advanced OS choice menu.
3.If started in safe mode go to programs>accessories>system tools>system restore and restore the system to a back date by selecting a bold previous date in calender.
Idf not booting in safe mode also you may need to reinstall the OS again.
first try booting the laptop and pressing the Fn key with the numerical ( numbered key ) that has a picture of 2 screens on it. This is for booting to an external monitor. you could also try adding an external ( pc monitor ) this will eliminate any motherboard Faults.
Secondly, the graphics chip driver may be corrupt or not installed correctly. if you have a restore cd, you could try booting the laptop, with the cd in the drive.
you can then try, to see if the settings in the bios are all correct, by booting/starting the laptop and pressing esc or F2 or delete immediately as the laptop starts. ** Be-Careful** what you adjust.
My suggestion is to look for. ** default settings tab** or load setup defaults.
these are the obvious things to try, before assuming that you have a faulty graphics chip or motherboard fault.
If you are sure the computer is running then connect an external monitor to the laptop. You will have to select the external using your Function keys FN + F7 or F8. If you can now see your machine on the external monitor then you know it's the screen portion of your laptop that is faulty. If this does not work then the sounds you are hereing are probably just the fan and the hard drive spinning. These are not an indication that the computer is working. All in all, I would say that the laptop needs to see a pro.
Have you tried to disconnect the external monitor and just booting to the laptop? If this works, then use the "e" key next to the power button to add the second monitor.
probable cause: there is an external device connected to your computer like printer, external hard drive or docking station. remove any if there is
could be a video card issue: try using an external monitor if you will get to see anything on it. if video card is integrated and you still have a warranty in your system have your motherboard replaced. when you use an external monitor be sure you know how to switch the screen from your lcd to the external monitor.
when you turn on the computer do you get to see anything come up on your screen before it goes blank?
try also removing the memory/ies of your system. see if you will get to see an error message on the screen and beeps from your computer without the memory. then try putting back 1 at a time and try using other memory slot to check if one of the slot is not working or just your memory
I was messing with. Check the link below for some tips.
