My Main Computer Screen

Ok so here is the deal-o ..

 

Yesterday, my screen was working fine ..I had both of the screens working great ..I shut the computer down for the night ..went to bed. Turned it on in the morning ..and my main screen (the flat screen not the CRT) Wouldn't turn on ..the light on the front just kept flashing blue ..nothing.

 

I have tried several things ..I unplugged the screen from the tower and the wall ..re plugged it back in ..restarted my computer ..took out the graphics card, reinstalled the graphics card and NOTHING ..

 

My graphic card ports work because I switched the CRT screen to the main port and back ..still works ..the card recognized that it is there ..but nothing on the screen works ..the button to turn it on and off KEEPS FLASHING! The screen is black and I can't figure it out ...

 

Is there ANYTHING else I can do to try to fix this OR is the screen ca-put.

 

 

PLEASE HELP!

Get a flashlight and put it at an angle going down and see if you can see anything. Your back light inverter might be blown. It can be repaired ($10-$15 for a new inverter not including repair costs)

 

I might have to do that ..my friend is selling me her screen (bigger than my main one) for 45$ and my BF is pitching in for Christmas!

 

So if I can get the other screen working ..then I can retire my CRT :)

You might have accidentally changed the input setting on your LCD?

 

It's the button that has this logo next to it.

You may have several inputs so keep pressing the button and wait 5-10 seconds each time to make sure you completely cycle through them.

Except the screen is black and I can't see anything on it ..I'm not at home right now ..I will take a look again when I get home from work tomorrow.
