You cant fix it Im afraid I think the screen maybe poked and died on you. To prove a point plug and external Monitor to the laptop and if all is well then Im afraid the latter I have informed you is correct. There are quite a few models of laptops out that nfortunately are built to fail so the rotten companies who make them sell another. To replace your black screen if it is damaged would be $700 and thats for the screen there is the fitting yet you might have pay the man for that and they are not cheap. I wish I could help you further or wave a wand but I cant Im sorry.

Hung on black screen apple logo is still light

Try holding the shift key when restarting the computer until it is all the way up. It would show safe mode. release the key. Basically it would not load 3rd party items to load. If it works find the offending program. Also go to the library and trash the " com.apple.plist ". Please include your OS version. Currently it is 10.9.3.

When It goes to loading screen it restarts

It is becasue of your computer is not properly shut down and so your harddisk has some bed indexing of memory location.
For that you need winxp disk or recovery disk.
Then boot your computer with that disk .
You have to set first boot device as your cd or dvd rom.;
For that when you power up press F1 or F2 or "del" key to enter in bios .
Then go to boot option then sewt first boot device as your cd or dvd rom.
then save settings then put winxp or recovery disk in rom.
Then follow the procedure .
Then enter in recovery console then type in prompt "chkdsk /r"
then it fix error on harddisk.
Sometimes this command fix eror and then after restart windows load normally but sometimes need to repair windows.
So after check this if still face issue just chose "r" when it finds your previous version of windows then it recovers your windows.

Let me know if you need more assistanse.
Thanks.
