    HI all

    New to the forum but of course have an issue. I have a 5920g whos screen has gone black. I can hear everything load fine and can log in blind and it will display to outside screen. If i turn the power on and off a few times the screen will come on and work normally. I have tried a new invertor and a new ribbon cable but no joy. Was thinking it may be the graphics card but the company i brought it in to said it cant be removed?I though the Radeon 3470 fitted to these could be removed?
    Has anyone any other ideas apart from graphics card that it could be?
    Thanks

    It's probably the graphics and it can be removed.
