Hello,

 

eMachines E520:

Have you tried to connect your laptop to an external monitor or LCD TV in using VGA connector?

Note: [Fn]+[F5] --> Switches display output between the display screen, external monitor (if connected) and both.

Hello,

 

To check the LCD connector:

1- Unplug the power supply

2- Remove the battery

3- Unscrew the 3 screw inside the battery compartment

4- Remove the switch cover between the screen and the keyboard

5- Check the LCD connector ( white rectangular connector)
