Chosen Solution

i dug up my old laptop and when i tried to power it on it did turn over but after a few seconds the screen turned black and nothing happend when i tried to move the mouse ext. the fan still turns and some lights still show. suggestions?

Hi, I had the same problem and found a solution. It seems the dvd rom is not screwed into the laptop, only plugged in. Moving the monitor stresses the point in the laptop where the cd-rom is, causing it to loosen. Then it causes the screen to keep going blank. The solution for me was to pull out the cd-rom. There is a little eject slider next to the cd-rom. First open the cd-rom. Then slide the slider. Then you can simply pull out the cd-rom. Then restart the pc. That fixed it for me. Right now, I’m trying to disable the cd-rom and leave it in. But disabling from device manager did not fix it. God bless you. In King Jesus, Joseph
