Well I bought a laptop from Hong Kong 2 years ago and last year it decided to die on me. I think it's about time I get around to getting it repaired.
Basically, the screen doesn't seem to work. At first I thought maybe the screen has just died, so I plugged it into an external monitor and still no luck! This led me to believe that the graphics card may of died, but then wouldn't the monitor still work with the onboard gpu on the motherboard?
The laptop still powers on, but it is unusually quiet. I would've thought there would be startup sounds even if it was just the monitor broken. Also, usually to turn it off I would have to press and hold the power button, but it just switchs off straight away when I touch it.
Think I made have explained it weird, so can anyone out there help me????????
