display not working

When i turn on my laptop the screen stays black. I can hear the fan running and the charger light is on, so why isn't it turning on correctly?

Could be the screen went bad or the graphics went bad.  To check connect the laptop to an external monitor if you don't see video then reboot.  

If you see video, then the laptop screen may be bad or its possible, on many laptops, that the video mode is set to external only.  Check the function key icons for a rectangle with a line on each side.  This key (while holding down the function button) will toggle video output modes -- usually between external only, internal only and both.
