[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1109320, member: 46727"] Try this test first and post back: Hook your MacBook up to an external display and see if it will work that way. If necessary, use "back to my Mac" to setup the external display thru System Preferences, Displays. If you don't have a spare monitor around or can borrow one, you can use a LCD TV as long as it has either a VGA or DVI input. That test should tell us for sure if the display has died or not. And, it may not be the LCD panel itself that's dead. It could be a power cable. The external test will also tell us if the GPU is OK. [/QUOTE]
