dasdexter:The leds that are on... Are they blinking? If they are... Then there's a problem with your ram.... A faulty vga in this context is an extreme case... But take it to a technician, let him diagnose it hand-on. |

RobinHez:no they are not blinking, it's on until i switch it off, yeah a faulty vga is really an extreme case, i just hope it doesn't come to that, i intend hooking it up with an external monitor to see if it comes on. |

@OP, what you need to do might just be "to call someone nearby that have a bit knowledge of computer maintenance and tell the person to help you remove the RAM, dust off the RAM SLOT and re-connect the RAM". Good luck to you. |

finally i hooked it up to an external monitor, still no display on the monitor, took it to a technician today, ran all the tests he could, and told me the fault is from the motherboard, but didn't specify the actual component causing it, i forgot to mention it's an amd system both processor and gpu, bought November 2013, no fault till now, am still open to ideas, thanks. |

Hey,wen I first saw ur post I suspected ur VGA,since u said d display went blank while playing game.Most times repititve gaming wit laptop(dats is not built for gaming) wears down d VGA over time.Which often result in symptoms lyk dis..Bt did d engineer say he will fix it? |
