My Dell Inspiron B130 screen screen glitch

it might be that you need to reinstall some drivers to get it all back up and running.

At first check with another working adapter of same volt and ampere. Don't use higher or lower powered adapter, that may damage the motherboard. second power jack and third is motherboard problem.

It is the screen, hook your spare monitor back up, press FN key and the F key at top that is assigned, " mine is F5 " there should be a diagram on the F keys to help.

Generally, a cable connection or cable issue. not all the color signals are making it to the projector. Try reseating the cable connections on both ends. If no changes, then try another vga cable

It sounds like your LCD is starting to go out - the screens are usually sectioned off in thirds or quarters, so when a third or a quarter starts having trouble, it's probably time to either replace the LCD, or replace the computer - because of the age of that laptop, it's possibly going to be cost prohibitive to replace the LCD. You can, however, hook it to a desktop monitor and continue using it just fine.

After your laptop boots up into windows, hold down the Fn key and as your doing that press the F8 button that should switch the output from the vga connetor to the LCD screen on the laptop.

If you still don't get video then you'll have to reseat the LCD cable from the back of the LCD screen to where it connects to the motheboard.

If you still don't get video then its either going to be a bad LCD or a bad motherboard.

go to desktop. Right click graphic options>output to>intel dual display clone>notebook+monitor

restart the laptop... as soon as you see the big blue DELL screen hold ctrl and press F11.

if done right, this should bring up the dell restore utility, just follow the prompts. takes maybe 15 minutes.

If your volume controls are not working you may need to reinstall or update your drivers. These drivers are available via the dell website just use this link.
