That's a hard question to answer without being there to test it. It's either the backlights or inverter, both give same signs of going bad. I mean you have to test the inverter with another screen connected to the inverter. It's best to just replace the whole kit unless you have the tools to test it.
laptop black screen, external monitor fine
my gateway mx8741 the screen decieded to black out now
it will show for a couple seconds then go black it does this when i turn it on or come out of like a power saver mode
i can maybe see things very dimly on screen but hardly(still black)
i put an external monitor on it and it works fine this way
is there a way to fix this, i am good at fixing laptops just havent run into this before

Ebay is a hit or miss. I will not recommend using eBay to buy quality parts. If you buy another screen to test and the inverter turns up bad your left with a dead PC and a screen. If you buy an inverter and the backlights turn up bad your left with a dead PC and an inverter. Not sure what you mean by buying another cheap PC price wise. It's better to buy a quality PC at a reasonable price that can last a lifetime. Best possible solution is to buy another kit assuming you are on a tight budget. On the other hand, even I would go to Masterchief to ask advice on a new PC, I recommend it.
