FAQ's:
Q: I was able to get it to display to an external monitor. But the other steps didn't help and my computer screen still wont work.
A: If it displays to an external display, that means the issue is most likely the LCD Cable or the LCD itself. Try 'reseating' the cable first. That means, unplug it at both ends and plug it back in, making sure its not lose. If that fails to help, replace the Cable and the LCD one at a time.
Q: I tried the steps with no luck. Wasn't the RAM and I couldn't get the computer to display to an external monitor. What now?
A: If the steps in this video did not identify the issue and you could not get the computer to display to an external monitor, then your most likely looking at a motherboard issue. It should then be replaced. Let me know if you would like further assistance with that operation :)

I'm trying to move the easier hardware stuff there so that I can focus on the more in depth troubleshooting and diagnostic videos here :)
My laptop screen was too dim low from startup.
So i connect my laptop with some external monitor and go to display settings and detect identify screen options.
So firstly it detect the external monitor screen and after unpluging the VGA cable
My laptop screen come back to normal.. It work for me... Even i tried it before reaching to this video 😀
Hope it works for someone too ...
Thankyou ^_^
Bhai kaise kia? Pls explain step by step
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! i was doing a routine cleaning on my laptop and afterward the screen wouldn't even light, so i was trying to troubleshoot which led me down a rabbit hole of thinking it was some ribbon cable, where that ribbon cable was on my specific laptop (which i could never find) etc. and im using a $1K+ laptop so I'm super concerned that i may have broken it and would have to send it in. NOBODY said a thing about it possibly being ram, not even acer community. first video i watch suggests i check the ram, (which i had removed for cleaning and put back in) and I'm always gentle with the ram so i don't break it and waste a hundred bucks, so I remove, and snap back in the ram sticks with some confidence and lookey there, boots like freaking normal. nearly had a heart attack.

Thanks for informative video.. i already done until cmos battery.. but i can't test LCD because doesnt have an external monitor.. 😅
Bummer :( You can always try purchasing a new LCD on a site like Ebay with a return policy so that if it does not help, you can return it.
Tv would function as external monitor?
I use external monitor and detect identify display,
Now everything is fine now ☺️👍
Thank You Sir ! I had 2 RAM slots and one them was faulty. I found the root cause and with another working RAM slot , I am able to work.
Heartfelt gratitude 🙏
Well done !! Great to hear !! Always here to help :):)
My problem is that I went to settings and accidentally put my brightness to the 0 point where I didn't see anything except black pls Tell me what to do
You cant set your brightness to complete black. So if your screen is black then the computer is either off or the computer screen is not working properly. Are you sure the computer is on? If so, then your on the correct video for troubleshooting. Have you tried the steps seen here yet?
I found out how to fix it u press ctrl, fn and then the arrow that points up ^ and I was on Dell computer
same here idk what to do
I have an ancient dell pc. Yesterday it was working well, but after a break of 25 mins when I restarted my pc, nothing was visible. I used my flashlight on the screen an it was faintly visible. Amidst it all, I could read system CMOS checksum bad. Pls suggest what to do.

Thanks for the video very informative, now, do you guys make videos about shortcircuits ? on the motherboard? or, how to use the multimeter ohms range? to check for them?
At this time, no. We are not planning on any motherboard repair or troubleshooting videos. That may change at some point though :)
Thx for watching and commenting !!!
hey what can I do if something fell on my PC, and then when I turned it on not only it said no bootable device, but now it doesn't say anything and the screen is on, but no display?
btw my computer doesn't have a ram
If the screen is black, what are the signs the computer is on? Lights? Sounds? Fan?

Enjoyed the video - very well done. I spent good part of today trying to get an old Compaq Presario running. It was before used Vista recovery to create a clean install (I want to give it away). Back when I originally gave up on it, the screen was bright, but jumping. But it would work fine on an external monitor. Now external works, but LCD screen is blank. But with flashlight, I see the images are there. So I will check cable. Unlikely RAM because it otherwise works fine. On my old Toshiba, it was the GPU that had come loose. I fixed that by re-flowing with a propane torch! You never mentioned that. More likely GPU than CPU, I would think?
Most of my viewers dont wont use a torch to repair motherboard components. And in doing that, there is a high risk for most inexperienced users of damaging their motherboards. Its just not the target audience of this channel. Good luck :)
@@PC_Monkey Makes sense. I did it on my Toshiba Satellite as a last resort. It has amazingly held up for 7 years. Wife still using it. I covered the motherboard with aluminum foil with just a small window for GPU. Applied a lot of heat with small torch while pushing down with large screwdriver. Some talk of hot air gun, but that won't hack it. But like you, I would not recommend this unless only alternative is to junk the laptop.
By the way, you are welcome to delete above post if you wish.
@@GrahamM-sm1hv np :) I leave most posts as most discussions are good and at least get ppl thinking :) And who knows, perhaps others with appropriate skills will want to try this :)
Please i have the same issue, I can see the images with a flashlight in a dark room but the screen doesn't light up.

@Teuku Gib Either can be related to the same cause. If either are your issue, then follow the steps in this video :)
So my notebook is a dell inspiron 15 7567, i was playing a game and the screen went black, the first thing that a tryed was to use a external monitor in my case a TV and it worked, the image appears just fine on the TV and if i take a flashlight and point to the notebook screen i can also see the image, is faded but i can see it, so in my case the RAM and the CMOS battery are not the problem right? now i should test the flat cable?
Correct. Your most likely looking at an LCD or an LCD Cable issue. Try unplugging and replugging in the LCD Cable first in case its lose. If that does not work, then it and / or the LCD needs to be replaced.
So I just bought an IdeaCentre all in one Desktop and the screen is so dim I have to put a flashlight to it but when it starts up sometimes it flashes in a normal brightness. Is this a ram issue or lcd issue?
Could be either. I would first check if the RAM are both secure. They could be loose. Same goes for the LCD cables. Also, I would try to hook up the computer to an external monitor and see if the issue is there as well at the same time.
my lenovo ideapad 330s amd have this problem: when turn on the fans spin, but the screen is black, if i force shutdown holding down the power button, and then restart it again, magically the laptop is working correctly and i can work all day without problems, when i shutdown, again the same problem, the fans spin but the screen is black, and the pc won't turn off.
How can i fix this problem ?
Thank you for this informative video. The display of my laptop has the same problem but couple of times during the day it works well like it has no problem! Please let me know of your opinion about it. Thank you in advance.
What was the result of following this video? Were you able to correct it or get it to display to an external monitor?
@@PC_Monkey Thank you for your response. I connected it to an external monitor and the desktop of my laptop could be seen properly on the external monitor. I have not checked the RAM yet though. What do think the problem could be? What do I have to replace? Do I still need to go for the RAM test?
@@AminValipour If it displays correctly to an external monitor then its most likely an issue with your LCD or LCD Cable. If the RAM were bad, it would not work with a different display.
@@PC_Monkey Thank you for your response. I'll check that
Thank you brother 🙏

I need some help...last day while watching some videos my laptop screen dimed out slowly and now the screen is totally blacked out. I don't see anything through the screen and it is totally black. When I connect with external monitor I can see that my motherboard is working fine. Should I purchase a new cable??
As I mentioned the laptop screen shows no light or anything...
My laptop has a LED Backlit IPS Display... please suggest if you have any idea about how to fix it.. thank you...
Yes. If your computer work with an external display and none of the other steps here found the issue, then its most likely the LCD or the LCD Cable. Reseat the cable first. If that does not work, replace them one at a time :)
hi ! i have a similar issue with the really really dim screen, but it doesn't happen at the launching but randomly while playing games, i don't think it's a gpu issue since, even if the screens is really dim i can plug my laptop through hdmi into an external screen and everything works fine on it, the laptop's screen stays dim but i can start games etc ( games crashes when the black screen occurs tho, but i can restart them after ). Do u think it's a RAM issue too ? the pc is brand new
( i cannot try ur method to determinate which ram bar is problematic, or atleast i don't know the way to acceed to my RAM bars in this PC however i've already opened it sometimes )
my config :
Alienware M17 R4
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10870H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.21 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU
32go RAM
( sorry my english is meh )
This only happens when your playing games? If you exit out of the game, does the screen start working normally again or do you need to restart the computer?
hi, my sisiter is having a problem with her acer, the thing is that it turns on and everything seems to be working fine but the screen is barley visible to where i have to use my phone camera light for it to even be visible for a bit, also this is her SCHOOL COMPUTER, i also watched everything on the video and it seems like everythings alright, please help.
You have tested the RAM as seen here? You have performed the external monitor test? With what result?

My screen is working through HDMI but not on the laptop.. Been like this for a few months, occasionally the screen will work for a few secs then goes back to black. Wonder if it's to do with opening/closing the lid as that's when it stopped working. It's a fujitsu. Any suggestions would be much appreciated :)
Try unplugging the lcd cable from both ends and then plugging back in, just in case its come loose. If that does not help, then most likely its bad or the lcd itself it bad. Replace them one at a time
@@PC_Monkey ok thanks. Will try that. The screen seemed to be coming on earlier when i tilted it all the way back, but not always
My laptop's keyboard lights up and the fan starts spinning however the screen doesn't turn on. I usually just force shut it down and power it on until it starts up and the screen lights up, but it takes a while until it works. Sometimes I leave my laptop to die out and then when it dies it resets but I am getting tired of it. Do you think it might be a software problem ? maybe like a slow ram problem ?

I recently got an Acer V3-771G in. The laptop gives display output and boots into windows. But the screen is very dim and brightness control doesn't work. I've tried in win 11 and Linux mint 20 from USB disk. Swapping RAM didn't work out and the CMOS also didn't. Laptop gives out display on external screen with HDMI with no problems. Tried on external PSU and battery. How do I troubleshoot further?
If the external signal is fine and the external monitor is working fine, then you may be looking at a physical issue with your LCD or LCD Cable. Try making sure the LCD Cable is secure but unplugging it and plugging it back in. If that fails to help, replace it and the LCD one at a time till you find the issue

Hi, I have Acer Aspire E5-576G, the thing is when I switch on the laptop it gets switched on without any problem.

The display and everything else is proper, the only problem is the screen goes black and I've to move it to get display back. Can you please tell me what could be the issue?
Sounds like an issue with the LCD Cable. It sounds loose if the screen has to be a certain angle. Try reseating it from both sides first.

Can u please make a video about a monitor going completely black or dim? My Acer moonitor keeps doing this while I'm trying to play games.
Try another monitor. If that monitor goes black too, then its a computer issue. If not, its a monitor issue. Let me know which it is :)
My laptop turns on and I can log in, but when I launch Chrome/Firefox or just leave it one for an extended period of time it crashes into the dim black screen with back light. External monitor works fine. This problem first appeared several month ago when I replaced my LCD, but it didn't happen for many months, and happening again now.
Most likely its an issue with the LCD or LCD Cable if the problem does not exist with on the external monitor. I would try replacing the cable first as its much cheaper.
@@PC_Monkey Thanks, I will try that. But this is really weird and unlike the situations in your video. It will let me boot, log in, everything is fine up until I try to launch a software.
I have a situation where the laptop screen is extremely dim, but the external monitor is perfect. I already replaced the screen, so that's not the problem. Before I go through the labor-intensive attempt to access the RAM and try swapping that out, do you know if bad RAM will effect the laptop screen while leaving the external monitor looking fine?
Usually that would not be the RAM but you can try it. Have you tried replacing the LCD Cable? That goes bad from time to time just like the LCD.
@@PC_Monkey Haven't tried that, but will do that. Can you recommend a place where I can purchase one?
@@alivebydesignthroughchrist9549 I usually get most of my used parts on Ebay or Amazon :)
@@PC_Monkey Thank you so much for your advice on replacing the LCD cable. After all this time, I finally got around to it today. The screen is back, but I'm not sure about the camera yet because I'm just installing the OS. The brand new cable I purchased was from the UK and the camera connector looked AWEFUL. Like it was an extremely sloppy solder/glue job or whatever they did. I ended up getting the connection made, but I'm reluctant to believe the camera will work. The connector looked a little melted.
@@alivebydesignthroughchrist9549 you can never tell what you'll get on ebay lol. If it does not work, definitely feel free to return it as damaged.
I have a genuine question: how does a defective RAM or CMOS battery affect the laptop screen backlighting?
Its not affecting the back lighting, it can affect the signal from the computer.
Thank you for the very informative video lots of help maybe now and in the future. Seriously though I didn't pay that much for this laptop maybe just buy a new one?
Were you able to get the computer running well or is it still giving you a black screen?
Hey so I replaced both my lcd panel and cable... but still get nothing... however when I plug in my external monitor It shows... could it be the connector on the motherboard?.... also one more thing when I shine a light on the lcd panel I could see that it's getting power and showing something

If that happened then your most likely looking at a motherboard repair / replacement. In my experience, it costs about the same to repair a MB vs replace it.

@@PC_Monkeyyes I tried, it's fine on an external monitor no such problem there.( Ps. My laptop fan malfunctioned is that could be a reason ?)
@@sayedkaif8687 If it displays to an external display, that means the issue is most likely the LCD Cable or the LCD itself. Try 'reseating' the cable first. That means, unplug it at both ends and plug it back in, making sure its not lose. If that fails to help, replace the Cable and the LCD one at a time.
The same problem occured in my computer.I take the computer and go to the computer shop.He change the bias and install them.Then upto two week laptop works better but after that sometime it on and works better but almost not working properly.
Give me serious suggestion.Thankss
I dont fully understand. So your computer turns on but the screen stays black? If so, your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here yet?
I am going to look into these suggestions, but my problem is slightly different.
I have a Lenovo U400 that turns on (lenovo logo), then hangs on a black screen for a long time (maybe 3ish minutes), before finally going to the windows 10 login screen and signing in. I just replaced the HDD with an SSD but the time it takes to boot is still almost identical to when the HDD was used. Would this be related to this video or another?
No, that issue would not be related to the issue discussed here in this video. Your computer turns on and works fine other than the slow startup?
Im watching all your videos trying to fix my lenovo idk what to do anymore 😔
@@Remuagee What issues are you having with your computer?

@@Bossglynn If you cannot change the settings in BIOS, or if changing them does not work, then skip that step and try to reinstall Windows 10 as seen here; czcams.com/video/g_UhiHScaSI/video.html. You can create your own Install Media for free as seen here; czcams.com/video/g_UhiHScaSI/video.html. If that fails, then your Hard Drive may be bad. Replace it as seen here; czcams.com/video/tNp5Kbo9uHg/video.html and install Windows to the new one.
HP Laptop Screen starting to darkening from the right lower corner and it gets corrected when I move the screen up & down, left-right. Can you kindly give a solution for this. It will be convenient if I can send you the video clip of the problem.
You can post the video to your own youtube channel and message me back here when you do. I can then view and advise further :)
will this similarly work on an acer aspire x 1430G-UW30P ?
This is the same troubleshooting process for any laptop that turns on but the screen does not work
I reallyneed ur help bro its a complicated issue with me and theres a workaround by disabling the graphic driver in safe mode….. is thereany way to contact u bro😕😕😕
For free, I communicate here on CZcams. For a fee, we can set up a time and talk somewhere else. Which would you prefer?
I have this problem with a desktop lcd monitor (AOC 913Fw): it turns ON, I see the brand logo boot up, a glimpse of my dekstop for like a second and then the screen goes black, but if I approach my cellphone flashlight near the screen I can see my desktop.
Have you tried another monitor? Does the issue persist there?
Sir i open laptop then I can see date and window's logo on screen but they are so much dim that until and unless you see it with focus you will not be able to see it...
1. Have you tried to turn the brightness all the way up?
2. Have you tried the steps seen here?
@Moncester 1. This video has been updated here: czcams.com/video/e9iy30J00-k/video.html
2. Have you tried the manual BIOS reset as seen here? czcams.com/video/76I2Ec9K7lw/video.html
If so, and if none of those fixes have helped, your most likely looking at a motherboard issue or a component on the motherboard that would involve soldering to replace. Would you like help with that?
Im having this exact issue where i have to hold a flashlight up to the screen to see anything except I'm using a desktop with two monitors. One of my monitors works, but my brand new Lenovo G25-10 monitor is having this issue.
If your other monitor is working, then I assume its not an issue with your RAM or Motherboard. I have to assume its an issue with the monitor thats not working. Can you try hooking up another monitor via that port to double check?
@@PC_Monkey Yeah I swapped ports and cables nothing worked. I just bought this monitor because I sold my last one which was plugged into that port and it worked perfectly fine. Might try and see if I can get it replaced or something
My ACER turns on.. the LCD lights for a couple of minutes but it dims afterwards.. what would be the fix for that?
Have you tried the steps in this video?
What would be a way to force my screen brightness up while on a Mac dual boot setup. My brightness is at zero, and so I can’t see anything on the screen. No keyboard shortcuts have worked as of yet.
Suggestions?
If you shine a flashlight on the screen, can you see enough to change the brightness back up?
@@PC_Monkey No, it's a Macbook Pro and when the brightness is at zero the screen is completely off.
@@wheeler202202 Oh. Dont work on Macs much. Will that still apply to an external monitor?
I’m going to try an external monitor when I get home. Wish me luck!
Uh my computer always goes dim when it was on Super Saver mode / when it has low battery . How to fix that?
It’s supposed to do that to save power
Go to settings and power saver mode
I am started only my monitor without cpu but when I turned on my monitor first start show brightness perfectly only for 2 sec after that very very dim light on monitor .
Sometimes monitors go into low power mode / go dim if there is no input. If your computer is not on, your monitor may not stay at max brightness. I hope I understood your comment correctly.
Hey my cell phone stays picth black but it turns on ,
How do I fix that it's a sam sung galaxy
Hi, My Chromebook Lenovo turns on, and the screen lights up (I can even adjust the brightness) but the opening password screen never comes up. I connected it to my tv and the opening password screen does show up there. Any idea what the issue may be? Thanks for your help!
Chromebooks are very simple machines. Not much to them other than on operating system and a motherboard. If the external display works fine but the computer will not display to its own screen, it would be an issue with the motherboard. You can try to reinstall the operating system just to make sure if you like as seen here: czcams.com/video/_tbOXFCgAOY/video.html
@@PC_Monkey thank you! I tried the esc/refresh/power hold and that worked. Now it’s saying to insert a recovery usb stick or SD card. Does this mean I have to download the Chrome OS from another computer onto a usb stick and set it up again on my computer?
Whoa lenovo got it.. Appreciate theirs doing it by our way1!
I have acer aspire 3 i5 it was working well then now power light but there is no display becomes on and fan run only for few seconds the it stops
1. For a computer that does not turn on, try this video first; czcams.com/video/kOBY4k2Mn_k/video.html. Let me know how that goes :)
2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
I lost my internet connection, and opted to restart the computer. After the logo appears, the screen stayed black. What do I do?
Assuming you have an Acer computer, are you able to try the steps seen here? czcams.com/video/gDQZvNQ2chc/video.html

Sir good morning. My acer travel mate p246 when turn on led lights on but the scren flashing dim light and no display
Sounds like your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here yet?
My laptop screen goes off and keyboard becomes unresponsive after 5-10 seconds of boot.
At start display and keyboard works well. Sometime it gets off at password stage.
External display and keyboard works well.
Same thing happens in recovery mode as well as in usb flashing.
At first screen and keyboard works but after 5-10 sec screen gets off and keyboard doesn't work.
Please help.
Does the external display go off after 5-10 seconds as well or are you able to use the computer like normal with it?
@@PC_Monkey yes it works normally. It doesn't off. But internal display and keyboard works a while only.
My laptop is turning on but not showing anything its just black scene i it turns on what can i do
If the screen is black, what are the signs the computer is on? Lights? Sounds? Fan?
I’m trying to follow your videos, and they’re very helpful… but the problem with mine is it’s turning on and getting to the sign in screen but only the screensaver background is there, no option to sign in. The other thing that is sometimes happening is the blue screen of death. Please help me!!!
That would be a different issue than the one discussed here. I assume you have an Acer computer? If so, try the steps seen here instead; czcams.com/video/gDQZvNQ2chc/video.html. Also, can you find any recovery or repair options in BIOS?
My PC Monitor starts but it is very very dim light what can I do for PC Monitor
