Hi, recently my Dell XPS L501x laptop has been acting strange. When I power it on, the screen is blank with nothing visible at all (not even the cursor). I can't see the windows logo, and I can't access the BIOS or anything else (since screen is blank). I can hear the sound it makes when you reach the log in screen and log in, but again the screen is blank.
Now, to fix this I pressed the F1 key (change projector mode) a couple times and the screen shows up, but if I close the lid or alt-tab out of a full screen game it reverts back to the blank screen and I have to repeat the process. I've tried everything I could find on the Internet but nothing has worked so far.
Recently I tried to uninstalling the nividia and Intel graphics driver from device manager, but I think that made it worse...Now I can't even get the screen to show up by pressing F1 or Windows+P.
Maybe something can be done with blind keystrokes? Please help urgently. I need this laptop for work.
