Default LCD failed to work as it should


my sister just dropped her laptop from the couch to the carpet floor
(which doesn't seem like it "got hurt" too bad); then the LCD isn't
working like it should be. The LCD is still light up, but dark.. we have
to "put the head of a flashlight right down on the display to see it"...
I don't know much about computers, but I'm guessing the display card is
crashed or something?:cry:
sorry for my poor english, I hope there's someone that can help; my sis
is going insane:zip:

She is using the following laptop model:
*Sony VAIO VGN-CR323 (Pentium Dual-Core T2390 Processor 1.86GHz, 1GB
RAM) *



MUCHO GRACIAS SENORS:geek:

It did get damaged when it was dropped since the screen of the laptop is no
longer back lit.

Unfortunately it sounds like the screen is broken. An impact would
certainly cause something like this, LCD screens are backlit, if the
light(s) are broken the screen goes really dark like you describe.

To whom are you talking
The "forum" that you are posting in leaches off the Microsoft News servers
in order to make it look far busier than it really is. Everyone who uses the
MS News servers sees your post on it's own - we have NO IDEA to whom you
are talking because you haven't quoted the post you are replying to.

This is not your fault - the fault lies with the forum owners who do not
explain to members that their posts end up on global Usenet newsgroups.
If you MUST continue to post in this "forum" then please at least quote the
post you are replying to, and do NOT change the subject line.

You would be far better off however, using a news reader and subscribing to
these news groups direct.
