I have ASUS UL30A with Win7. When I turn the computer on, I get no image on the screen, not even technical data, just black as if image from computer doesn't reach the screen. Thank you for your suggestions! I hope this is the right place to put this type of question. If there is a better place, please redirect me. Thank you!

    Hello @Joel Ratt

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A and informed us about the black screen issue. I understand this must be a troublesome situation, but I am here to provide you with a workaround:

    1. Basic checks:

    • Remove the power adapter > remove the battery if removeable > Press and hold the Power button to drain all remaining power
    • Plug the adapter back and reboot your laptop

    2. Test with an external monitor:

    • If you have any other extra monitor (TV, separate screen,...) connect your PC through HDMI/VGA port. If your monitor received signal, which means the core components is working, then the issue is most likely within your laptop's screen.
