I have a dell 250N smartsep laptop. The monitor has gone extremely dim. Not completely dark, but very dim, almost like trying to look through a heavily tinted window. The computer works as normal otherwise.
I intend to hook up to an external monitor to determine if it's a monitor or graphics card problem.
Assuming it's the monitor, is there a way to determine if the problem is with the lcd display itself, or the backlight? And if it is that is there usually something that can be done without changing the entire monitor?
All suggestions are welcome, my warranty is up so I'm fully prepared to take apart the monitor myself.
Thanks
