what causes a black screen on a Dell Inspiron 5160
Inspiron 5160
I have a Dell Inspiron 5160 that I sold to a customer it was running before we sent it out they got it but says it don't work I tried two video cards but same thing
It boots and runs but shows no video internal or external screen
what would cause that do you think it is the motherboard? or do you think it would be the wrong video card as I see it takes two types a ATI or Ge Force type maybe they put a bad one in?(won't say either way)
Thank you
Todd

Given that the system is worth less than $50 it's not worth a board replacement.

I understand it was sold working but the customer says it was not when he got it I think they switch the boards so now selling for parts
Thank you
