Some Days earlier my laptop was giving me issues I will on it and there will be a display of light but it won't display anything but after I reboot multiple times it work and start fine but now it doesn't work anymore. When I power the laptop on, will just display a bright dark screen and I will here the sound of the system starting but no display. Please help me out
 
Solution
Could be a bad display, bad video card (onboard or add-on), motherboard issue. Start with testing it with an external screen see if anything comes up there.

Welcome to the forum!
What laptop model is it?

If an external screen won't work, it could be either the video card, or the RAM might be faulty.

Is there a beep code?
