laptop fails to boot when screen connected
Ok here is a brain beater.
I have a acer 5235 laptop on win 7 now the screen got cracked (but still worked)
I have got a new screen the same model number the screen has now been fitted but the laptop wont power up ???
Now if you unplug the screen from the mother board the laptop will power up so its not a motherboard fault
plugged the screen back in and got a instant shutdown
So thinking the screen is at fault i plugged my old cracked screen back in and boom no power laptop fails to power up so d/c the screen it powers up plug the screen in while powered up and it shuts down instant crash
the laptop works on an external monitor perfect
the new screen is from acer them selfs no after market
the strange thing is even the original cracked screen is failing to let the laptop power up
There is no lights nothing when the screen is plugged in also it knocks the light out on the adaptor unplug the screen from the motherboard and everything works ???
the laptop was working fine until the screen got cracked
