    The screen on my sister’s died after four years use. I took it to my local pc repair shop to check it out. The pc is fine and working via external display but the screen itself is broken. They removed it with difficulty as it was heat welded in. They accidentally broke a ‘u’ shaped bracket on the screen meaning it needs a total replacement now anyway. They searched for a replacement part but the numbers written internally on the screen are completely unknown. So if anyone has an old broken one in UK do let me know!

    No. All I I get is this screen immediately after pressing the power button. I use Macs so don’t really know what I’m doing. I don’t know what combination of keys to press on start-up for the OS to repair itself. I suspect it happens to soon to progress into the boot sequence. I wonder if the graphics chip could be dead? How to diagnose the problem? Thank you for helping.

    This is my sister’s machine – she’s had it two or three years from new. Worked fine and I upgraded it to Windows 11 I think some months ago. Yesterday she closed Firefox and the screen flashed with some brief window then seemed to close itself down. On booting it up all I can get is a blank screen almost immediately after powering up – see attached. The screen is closer to white not blue. I’ve tried many combinations of keys while booting but always getting this blank display. i suspect it’s not booting into the OS. I use Macs myself so I’m flying blind. I remember a nightmare a year or so ago when it tried to upgrade the OS and there wasn’t enough memory on the SSD. Had to boot from a USB with Windows on and delete stuff. Can any-one help?
