    Hello ! I replaced my Dell XPS17 l701x broken screen with new one (not exact same manufacturer but connetion cable, inches, LED blacklight are the same). So i power up my laptop, display working great, i see dell loading screen next i see LOADING WINDOWS screen. After that Black screen (blacklight is working) and i hear startup sound ,but problem is that there is black screen. If load windows in safe mode, all works fine. I uninstalled nvidia graphics drivers in safe mode and then windows works fine in normal mode too. But if i reinstall nvidia graphics drivers, again, black screen but led blacklight working. What may be the problem ?

    Was the replacement screen the same resolution as the old one?

    I have a dell precision that does this. It usually fixes itself when I do Fn+Ext Display key
