    I have a Fujitsu LIFEBOOK E6570 PC Notebook. Just got it from a friend. For some reason the monitor doesn't lite up. The laptop appears to be running fine but nothing shows on the screen. I plugged it into another monitor and it didn't light that monitor up either. Below are the laptops specs. Doesn't anyone know what might be wrong and how I can fix it?

    how do you know that it is working properly?

    anyway, if it isn't showing on an external display, the video card is probably dead.
