Hi, I have an ASUS laptop that has a constant black screen. My dad asked me to watch a TV show with him after about a minute of me using the laptop. About 2-3 hours after, I came back and my laptop's screen is completely black. The hard drive light turns on and blinks for a little bit, but later turns off. Everything seems to be working fine except for the screen. Any Help?

Try this...
1. Turn the laptop off (not sleep or hibernate but off).
2. Connect an external monitor to the laptop.
3. Turn on the external monitor.
4. Turn on the laptop.
NOTE: You may have to press an "external monitor" button. Could be the f4 button or a button with two monitors on it, for the external monitor to work.
If you can see fine on the external monitor, then your attached display, or the ribbon cable that connects it, are your problem.
If you can't see on the external monitor at all, or the problem occurs on the external monitor as well, then it is probably the graphics card/GPU that is the problem, which may require the motherboard be replaced.
