Chili Dawg connect an external monitor and see if that displays properly . If so you know it is your display. Of course you can also try to see if your backlight has failed. In a darkened room and your computer up and running (started) shine a flashlight at an angle against the screen. See if you can make out shapes or silhouettes. If so, you know it is your backlights. This is a LED backlit display so potentially you could replace the backlight strips or replace which would be an easier repair. Let us know what you find out.

What have you tried? For a start, does the fan start up or the hard disk light flash? Looking hard at the screen, is there a just-discenable image? If so, it'll be the backlight that's gone. On a device of that age it'll probably be a compact flourescent tube which may have failed. You might be able to get a replacement. Looking carefully at thescreen as you turn it on, is there any sign of life from the backlight?
