I have a Gateway laptop 450 which is no longer under warranty and recently the LCD has just gone dark. I have connected it to a monitor and received no problems with the display there, and I can see the screen faintly on the LCD.
I have tried the brightness and contrast buttons on the keyboard, but got nothing from that.

I have already opened the laptop, but honestly have no idea in what direction I should be looking.
Is this a hopeless case?

Any help would be awesome!!
