    So yesterday I go to open the laptop and check my mail in the morning like I always do and I turn it on and the screen dosent come on. Im thinking this is weird so I restart it and once again it wont come on. I have tried turning it on about 300 times with no luck. The green light will come on and the fan comes on but the screen wont turn on (also the cd drive opens and closes with no problems). I have tried hooking it up to my LCD and cycling the screen and it wont work with that either. I think I have tried about everything, Any help????

    The model is an A135-S2276

    Have you found a solution yet? I think I'm having the same problem as you.
    Did anything weird happen before the screen stopped working? Or did it just stop working one day?

    If you tried Fn-F5 to cycle the screen to the external display and it isn't working sounds like a video problem on the motherboard.
