laptop screen black altho it still running

Expand Post »

Hey,
My computer is Lenovo 3000 N200. I used it last night, shut it down and when i turned it on this morning the screen was completly black.It is running though, the green light of the power button is on. I tried taking out the battery and holding down the power button for 60 seconds but it doesnt work. I read that it worked for HP, Dell and Acer laptops but for some reason it doesnt work for Lenovo. Or I have different problem. Is there any other way i can fix my computer? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Plug in an external monitor and see if it'll output anything. If the new monitor works, your laptop's screen is dead. If the external monitor doesn't work, well, ur screwed (video card or other major hardware issue)
