Ensure that there is no disk in the CD/ DVD rom and open the bios by pressing F2, DEL, F10, or whatever key that is assigned to the bios. You can find this at the time the system starts. Enter the bios and restore the bios to default settings. After restoring the bios, save the settings and restart the system. This may resolve the issue.

While this could be a connection problem, either a loose connection or a faulty video connection cable, more than likely it's the LCD that has the problem. It's hard to rule out a video connector cable, but I really wouldn't suspect that unless the unit has gotten wet, or if the cable has been pulled on, etcIf your netbook has an external VGA video connection, try connecting it to a different monitor. Obviously, if it works there, it's not a fault of the video system, but the panel itself.. If that is the case, I don't think it can be repaired, only replaced. If yours is still under warranty (1 year for most) you can contact Coby for repair information. Otherwise, the specific part number for your LCD is on the back of the unit. You can also search by your specific model #, but there may be more than 1 part # in your series of netbook.
