Unfortunately, for a laptop $400 would would be reasonable. If it works with the monitor plugged in I don't think it is the video card though.

It can't be a driver/windows issue. My next thing to try would be to reset all the BIOS settings to default in the BIOS setup (just a quick thing to try, although I don't think its likely this will work).
