My Compaq Presario laptop is 4-5 year old ( i know it may be too old). But last week when i turned it on, the screen just went black. I tried to to shut it down by pressing the power key and restart it again, but it stayed black. I dont know what to do cuz the screen showed nothing for me to fix. i really wanna fix it myself ( so to save some money) please if anyone be so kind to help me out pleaseeee!!!!!

Jump to PostHi and welcome to Daniweb!
When you power on your laptop, does all hardware working ie. fan, HDD, etc. except screen?
When was the last you used and it still worked?
Jump to PostSo your laptop is not starting at all and you can't see a thing. Try clearing the heatsink, make sure there is no dust to rule out an overheating issue. Can you try reseating the graphic card.
