Use this video to assist you troubleshooting and repairing your computer if it starts but the screen is staying black or dim. If all the steps here failed to identify the issue and you could not get the computer to display to an external monitor, then the issue is most likely with your motherboard. It would need to be replaced. Check out the FAQ's and Related Video Links below !!

FAQ's:
Q: My screen wont work but it will display to an external display. What do I do?
A: If the rest of the tests in this video didn't identify the issue, but the computer will display to an external monitor, then the issue is most likely with your LCD or your LCD Cable. 'Reseat' the cable by unplugging it from the Motherboard and the LCD. Then plug it back in to make sure the connections are secure. If that does not help, then replace the cable. If that does not work, replace the LCD.
Q: I tried all these steps but with no luck.
A: If you have tried all the troubleshooting steps seen here and could not identify the issue, and the computer would also not display to an external monitor, then the problem is most likely with your motherboard. It would then need to be replaced. Let me know if you would like assistance with that operation :)
Q: What if the RAM is part of the Motherboard?
A: If the RAM is integrated into the motherboard, you wont be able to test for it separately. A RAM problem would be a motherboard problem. Skip that step and try the external monitor test.

Thank you so much!! I had worked on a project for 10 plus hours when my laptop stopped working in this fashion. I started it 20+ times since yesterday evening, and finally admitted that I had lost my files and created a help desk ticket to get it replaced ASAP, and then watching your video and connecting it to the external monitor via my docking station fixed it. It is an HP elite book. Also, help desk told me to press and hold the power and mute button together for a minute and that should fix it. A known issue with this HP elite book.

@@PC_Monkey guess, once my notebook ( shown hp elite) DOES still sometimes give me a display ( int and ext same time on or off), it points to the motherboard too, right? How could I check internally/ within the os, what the issue might be? Any particular info in the event manager that could help? Aint got money to buy parts i dont need! ;) ...had seen sth about time synchronisation right before the crash/ blackscreen there, when i looked last time... could that be a sign pointing to the cmos battary? ...but shouldnt then as well the system time be wrong, (which was ok on last successful boot) or is that only once it is totally empty?? I was able to perform the f2 system tests ( ram and hdd) and passed them all! thx B.

[@PC_Monkey]

@@speedysunshine If you are able to perform the diagnostic tests and the HDD and RAM pass, then your next step would be to try to reinstall the operating system as seen here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppCxkKuMbM-SjtE. You can create your own Install Media for free as seen here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZC4mZx-iMiUias. If you cant create your own, you may have to purchase it. You can see an example of a good install media USB in the Repair Tools list here; www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey.

[@speedysunshine]

@@PC_Monkey Thanks a lot! But due to me not trusting those tests too much, I thought it might be better to put my hands on! Double checked the ram one by one... et voila! One seems to be defect, since without it, Its up and running fot the last 2 days! ...am a bit affraid of the reboot though, just in case it was only a one off lucky reboot... but 20 attempts before, it did not start anymore! I make sure I have all my settings and logins and stuff all right on the replacement laptop, and then i will reboot and see ;) Thanks for your tips above, that always could come handy one day, since my systems were preinstalled ( luckily with win10 pro plus ;) nice :) hence wanna keep it!

Question: i was using my laptop with an second external screen. Everything worked fine, but a few seconds after i turned up the brightness on the main screen it got rapidly dark until then turned black completely. The second screen worked fine though. I turned everything off and on again and then the second screen stayed black too even though it said it had an input. I tried exchanging the ram and battery like you showed but that didn't help and i checked the buttons for brightness just to be sure. That means it's either the cpu or the motherboard right? If yes can i somehow save my data? I did not make an backup, i know stupid. Or should i pay for repairs and hope they can fix it? You explain fantastically by the way. Detailed but precise without rambling and not too slow or too fast. Just fantastic.

Hi, So my issue is a little bit complicated. When I turn on my laptop the display is just back screen. I can feel that LCD backlight is on around the screen but the screen is black when I connect it to an external monitor the display will work on that but the laptop screen still remains dark. Then I switch viewing mood a couple of times like Duplicating Display, Second display only and repeatedly pressing Window+Ctrl+Shift+B and after some time in the first try to 10th try the laptop screen comes to life. But after all the use if I put it to sleep for a few minutes and came back the issue will be back and I have to repeat all those steps. What I have done is try updating all drivers, re-install windows but no luck. I checked my ram information is shown correctly in the task manager. Do you think its a hardware issue or software issue?

If your computer starts but the screen stays dark, yet it displays to an external monitor, you need to replace the LCD or the LCD Cable

Um my pc was restating and I pressed the restart button on the case then this happend help please my dad will kill me

[@PC_Monkey]

Now your computer turns on but the screen stays black?

[@LostCitySparks223]

Mine does this too. My sister dropped it. And it turns on but the screen is black

[@rokybrglez3362]

Hey I have an alienware 17 r4 whenever I turn it on with the charger plugged in it turns on but the screen doesn't it makes a 2 beep sound I've replaced the ram since I had a ram issue now it's beeping 2 times after having it on for about 30 seconds

[@PC_Monkey]

2 beeps on a Dell usually means a 'Parity Circuit Failure'. This usually refers to the Memory or the Motherboard itself unable to accurately read the Memory. If you have already replaced the RAM, then I would have to guess that the Motherboard needs to be replaced. Let me know if you would like any assistance with that. Could be cheaper than you may think :)

[@rokybrglez3362]

@@PC_Monkey ok so about the 2 beeps it's actually one a single beep, also when I was trying to connect the WLAN card antennas to the card one of them didn't connect properly as in it didn't click in the proper way could this be the cause of the issue?

[@PC_Monkey]

@@rokybrglez3362 1 Beep is usually a DRAM failure of some sort. Perform the RAM check as shown here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZKahn6abduhl5o If that does not work, than the issue is again, most likely with your Motherboard :(

[@rokybrglez3362]

I've done the ram check it's still black screen so I assume that it's the motherboard, are they repairable? I've taken it to a computer tec he said that he won't replace it he will just repair it is this possible?

[@PC_Monkey]

@@rokybrglez3362 There are different ways of repairing a motherboard. It is possible.

I was going to remove the back of the laptop when I noticed that the fan was still running. So I pressed the power button till the fan turned off . Just out of curiosity, I turned it on again and viola! It came tht it was setting up windows and after a longer than usual loading it was back to normal. Just saying for other laptop noobs like me

Can you please suggest me a good ram for my HP ProBook 4440s

[@PC_Monkey]

You can go to websites like crucial.com. They can scan your computer and see what RAM will be good to upgrade to. You can also watch this video if you wish to look yourself: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKWmq6ikoZV0h6M. Let me know if you have any question after that and I can try helping you find compatible RAM :)
