I have a faulty Sony Vaio AR21M Laptop.
The laptop has no display and no display output for an external monitor, everything else is working, windows starts up and pre-installed james bond trailer runs after 20mins and can be heard but obviously not seen.
Laptop has been left for 2 months, last week I switched it on and it worked, display was fine and the laptop was working perfect for 2 days then the display went again.
Does anybody know what this fault could be, I asked a repair place and they said it could be a loose wire but probably a new screen is needed?, but if there is no output working for an external monitor to be linked up to it why is it a screen problem?
My limited knowleadge tells me it could be a loose connection, or power supply to the graphics card or the actual graphics card that may be at fault.
But what do I know...
Hope someone can shed some light on this and possibly recommend a repairer if it does need specialist attention.
Thanks for any advice
