My power went out yesterday for a couple of minutes. Unfortunately my laptop with the auxilary monitor was running at the time. When I booted up again, the laptop seems to be fine but the monitor no longer comes on. Could the power outage have fried it?

Debug checklist:
>Check for a tripped RCD / blown fuse in you're Power distribution board
>Check the fuse on the TV (normally in the plug
>Check for a reset or similar on the TV
>Post finer details about what your TV still does / doesn't do here, along with details of you TV make and model
If you do not know how to do any of the above safely get a qualified professional to do it. I do not take responsibility for you shocking/injuring/killing you self by doing something out of your depth / plain stupid. (yes that alppys to making a detailed forum post as well)

Does the built in display on the laptop still work?
I assume you mean an external monitor. Was it LCD or CRT?

Yeah unfortunately the switching supply for the monitor probably burned out in the power fluctuation.
Someone experienced in electronics can open it up and looks for bad capacitors but I strongly recommend against it for a beginner because of potentially high voltage present.
