    Hello peps, I'm asking this on behalf of a random person I chatted with on youtube. I'm aware of most of the issues on this laptop so I made an ez tutorial on how to fix some stuff.

    anyway, Here is the question I got:

    Anyone know the fix to this?

    You can ask him to try it on a external monitor via VGA port.

    I don't think it's not the screen not turning on, I think it's the screen not receiving any video signal from the laptop.

    ok, thanks for the reply.

    edit - if it turns out its not receiving video input, what would be the best solution? deal with it and hope it turns on or rma? or perhaps there is a way to fix it himself?

    He would want to RMA it and have Asus fully check unit for him.
