Hello again,
I posted a while back, and this time I have more information as I have been trying to figure out the issue, but it's still not working.
Things that haven't changed:
Everything is visible when using an external display.
There is no power to the screen during boot, the grub menu not visible (I have an Ubuntu/Windows dual boot.)
When booting to Ubuntu, the screen turns on, and works fine.
New developments:
Windows is toast. It has the blue death screen, and I cannot use system restore, as it says that this is not possible.
I cannot do a fresh install of windows. This results in the error 0x80070570. Upon reading this seems to possibly imply a memory issue.
I ran chkdsk, which exited before completing, throwing an unspecified error.
From the command prompt, I tried /bootrec.exe/fixbcd and it said that no installation of windows was found.
When booting from a usb, the screen does not work at all.
I'm really stumped.
What I'm thinking, but need help troubleshooting:
I'm running memory check as I write this to see if there's a memory issue.
Could this be a hard drive issue? I dont care about the data on the windows partition, so I dont really care if I have to nuke that partition and start over.
Thanks in advance!
