It may be that he chose to outout to an external monitor instead of the built in lcd panel. It depends on which model you have, so try a few different combinations. For example, often either Fn + F3, Fn + F5, Fn + F8, or Fn + F9 You may have bad hardware or a bad driver. Shut down completely. Wait a few secs, then turn on. Do you see the mfgrs splash screen? Hit f8. Do you see the boot menu? If so, the lcd panel and the video subsystem are physically OK. Choose safe more and bring it up. Again, if you see stuff, you're going to be OK and you probably just need to install a driver. If it is giving you a black screen at startup and a small curser in the upper left, your motherboard cannot see your hard drive. Go into the bios and check that it is OK or run a quick dignostic. In many systems, diags are hidden in f12 at startup. Does anyting appear on an external monitor. If so, the LCD panel is bad and the video card OK. If not, then the video card is bad.
