!!URGENT!! Laptop screen died !!URGENT!!
Hello.
I have just got a second hand Texas Insturments Travelmate laptop. It is a 486x4/75 -what ever that means- it has 8mb of ram and 200mb hard drive. It also has a color screen. The screen has decided to stop functioning. It was working a week ago, but now it is not.
I did not touch anything!!! It will not even glow, it is as if the power is not switched on. But the rest of the puter is fine. It hums and works fine. But is no use without a screen.
HELP? PLEASE?
P.S.
I have no money! I cant and wont spend any money! Sorry. But I need solutions, not "go buy this, that and the other" answers.

Open up the Latop and make sure the cable of the Screen is not loosen this can be the problem. SInce it was working, I believe you probably move it. and that should be the problem I do not think it has died it is just not connected. Old laptops have those problems.
