juukes Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 hi guys. i have a problem with my m14x when i turn on the laptop. the screen will light up. and i can see the boot up sequence. but the screen will have a greenish hue. then by the time i get to windows the screen will be completely dark. at first i thought the screen was off. but after shining light into it. you can see that the screen is still functioning and displaying windows... its just the backlight wont stay on.. if i use an external monitor, the external monitor will work completely fine. i've also made sure that my screen dimmer is at the brightest setting. this did not do anything for me. anyone have any ideas?

svl7 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Probably a bad inverter or so, if you're still covered by warranty call Dell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juukes Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 i figured the same thing. as one of my older laptops had a broken inverter before. and so i've replaced it.. but still the same thing... im starting to wonder could this be a video card problem??i forgot to add that this problem started happening right after i decided to reformat the laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
