First of all, this is a fantastic site.
Like this subject says I have a thinkpad r31 with xp pro, recently my
display will not work. I have tried it with the battery in and out.
The power light comes on I can hear the fan and the hard drive start
to work but the screen is blank no splash screen just plain black. I
also connected an external monitor and that shows blank as well. The
external monitor is working on another machine with no problems. My
question to someone that knows or has experienced this before is it
the MB or the led invertor causing this problem? If it is the led
convertor than I can fix it if it is the MB then it's time for a new
machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance
