Blank Laptop screen - intermittent

[gatorbikerbob]

Hi All,



My HP Pavillion dv9500 laptop screen has gone blank. The computer works fine

and is able to use a monitor plugged into the VGA port. I thought the screen

just went out, it's just over 2 years old and of course, 2 months out of

warrenty. However, after the sceen had not worked for about a week, it came

back on. I was using the laptop with a monitor, and all of a sudden, a window

popped up and asked if I wanted to duplicate the 2nd monitor or stretch the

desktop across both monitors. I looked over at the laptop screen, and sure

enough, it was back on! I turned off the computer, and turned it back on the

next day and the screen was out again and has not came back on since. I have

updated the video card drives, seperate nVidia GeForce card, not integrated.

I have yet to take the laptop apart to check cables because I have not played

around with a laptop, only desktops. Thanks for any suggestion...

it is something to do with the connection linked to the main board.. if

you know a little about hardware it can be an easy fix
