Hi All

I have this weird issue with the laptop screen.
"The screen turns on but no light." This means if I inspect screen in the sunlight or using a flashlight I see the graphics are drawn on the screen. But I cant see without since there is no illumination.

Now I don't know what type is my screen. LED or CCFL.

Please guide me what could be wrong.

I have xpsM1530 screen 1280x800
 
Sounds like your inverter or backlight is dead. You can replace it yourself but it's not for the faint of heart. If you have a local computer shop, they could go through the trouble of fixing it, but it might be time for a new computer anyway. The shop can also get your data off the hard drive and transfer it onto a new computer.
 
I can replace backlight and invertor, but I am not sure if either of them or both of them is broken. :-/
Also before ordering, I wanted to clearify, Backlight and Inverter 's belong to LED range not CCFL
 
Hi,

XPS has a issue with Monitor because of the Nvidia chip, i have a silmiar issue, havent got it fixed, from what i understand, i need to replace Nvidia chip-set (or in this case motherboard) to fix it.
