I dropped my Assus laptop from about a foot and a half onto the carpet. The screen is dark but the computer souns like its booting up just fine. Any ideas?

I did this with an older dell laptop at one point, the video cable became unplugged from the motherboard, I just had to pop open the case and plug it back in. You should search online for a service manual for that laptop for instructions on how to open it up. My cables were above the keyboard but each laptop is different, there will be a video data cable and a power cable for the screen, either or could have come lose.
