Do you have a "dead" laptop lying somewhere about the house gathering dust?
When you turn it on the LEDs light up but there's no display. You took it to a computer repair shop to get it checked out by a professional. Their diagnosis is that the motherboard needs replacing, which they will do for $300.
What do you do when this happens? Well, before you buy a replacement motherboard, a new laptop, or pay these guys to fix it for you, there is a solution. Even if you are not computer or mechanically inclined, there is something you can try yourself - and what do you have to lose? As things stand, your laptop is a write-off.
The solution is "Fix Your Laptop Yourself". This is a short but detailed 20-page guide containing simple step-by-step instructions with photos in PDF format. The instructions are clear, concise and easy to follow. You require no special tools or technical expertise.
So how can you know whether or not the technique will work on your system?
Simple really: If when you press the ON button you hear the laptop start up, all LEDs light up but there is no video on the laptop screen or external monitor, then this technique is very likely to work for you. The laptop screen should either remain completely black, or you may see horizontal lines, color flashes, or image distortion. The cooling fan may spin as normal, intermittently, or not at all.
You don't have to be a computer genius to do this: I had never opened up a laptop before either. Anyone who can use a screwdriver and follow instructions carefully can do it. And there are 2 fixes you can apply, both of which work on the same principle. The first of these fixes doesn't even require you to dismantle the laptop.
You do not need any special tools. You can apply the fix using a few standard items that you already have lying around the house. There are 2 techniques, explained in detail: The first of these requires NO tools, other than a screwdriver.
You can find more detailed information on our website, together with technical specifications and typical symptoms.
