Laptop help Acer aspire 5536

[stevesheff08 10]

I got an Acer aspire 5536 laptop, all boots up but no display on the screen I tried the hard drive in my mums laptop and it's fine I thinking it might be the GPU, what would I be looking at getting it repaired ?

 

Thanks for any suggestions

It might just be the inverter for the backlight...can you plug a "normal" display into it and see if that works..

 

Just for info...

Think I'm best of just getting a new laptop, don't think it's the inverter as nothing powering the screen at all the Fan spins etc.

can be the gpu but also can be the ram or the hdd.

Tried HDD in another laptop so I know it's not that.
