Notebook did fall and screen only black and white ?

My notebook did fall, the screen is still shining, sometimes the left half is white and the right half is black or other variations like first vertical quarter is white, second vertical quarter is black ...etc..


The PC starts up normally, I hear the windows welcome screen after about 1.5 minutes.

How do I know that the screen is cracked like they say ?
No guarantee for that I suppose ?
It is a samsung X360

Can I access the SSD to save the info before sending it to Samsung for repair ?

Could it be something else then the screen itself, some chip damaged ?

 

Do you have an external monitor output
You could boot to that if available to test if its the screen

How can I activate the external monitor when the screen is not working ?
Can't see anything to activate ?

 

On my computer it's Fn+F8, should be something similar on yours. My F8 key has a picture of a monitor/projector screen.

 

If you connect the external monitor
Turn your computer on and boot, usually the default boot is to external ,or as
jenesuispasbavard said try your hotkey combination which is the glue Fn key at the same time as one of the F keys

How can I pass the login window when I don't see anything on my screen ?

 

You don't need to login, just attach a monitor to a port (presumably VGA), and then like the other members have said, one of the hotkeys, such as F8 perhaps? will have a picture of a monitor on it. Press FN and the button and it should hopefully display onto the monitor, then your be able to see the login screen and login.

 

Do I have to press the FN + F4 buttons after I hear the windows sound when windows has completed instalation or in the begining when I press the start button ?

 

u should press it when u hear the windows sound... if u don't see anything on the external screen then something is wrong...
