hello Gurus in the house.I own an hp dv6 pavilion laptop, and I have being using it for quite a while now.A few months ago my amd mother board got fried and an engineer at computer village was able to change it to an Intel board with an i3 processor.Yesterday while I was doing some routine 3d designs on solid works as I work a lot with SW as a mechanical engineering student, my laptop screen just went blank. The Keyboard and and everything is else is running fine, but my screen won't come on.I did a hard reset multiple times, and even went to Google for some tips yet no solution seems to work.I removed the RAM cards and cleaned both of them including the slots and still the screen just stares at me like it just wants me to give up...Please I need your take before I go to computer village and keep investing in one engineers ministry

That's how AMD board is doing I think that should be VGA problem.
But no permanent solution to it . If heat VGA now the next 1month the problem will still persist.

it's an Intel board now...I changed from AMD when it got burnt,so it's intel

I want to know if it's from the board, when u press the caplock does it show the white light sign?
If yes then it's either from the screen or signal capable.. If no then it's from the motherboard...


Take it to your engineer

when I put the laptop on,the wifi button shows the green light to indicate it is on,and the caps lock key keeps blinking...it goes on and off (caps lock light)...the engineer that repaired it the first time, says it is the processor when I called him but I need a second opinion

Hmmm... Keeps blinking? You just have to troubleshoot, it might be ram, processor... For how long have you been using it since u change to Intel board? And what's the model of the system you're using?

it would be almost a year since I started using the new board...I bought it brand new from computer village but I couldnt afford a new processor so the engineer swapped my AMD processor with his spare i3....it has been working seamlessly till this blank screen thing.Its a hp pavilion dv6 laptop, 6g ram,500 gb harddrive.....

It might be the processor... Just take it to him, it's all about troubleshooting.
