R3-131T - black screen and isn't displaying on the built-in monitor.

Hello,

R3-131T, isn't displaying on the built-in monitor. Was displaying fine on an HDMI monitor, and I noticed the touch screen was responsive (the "tail" was showing up on the HDMI monitor, the screen moved around in response to the touch movement).

Using the battery reset pin hole on the back (holding down with paper clip for 30s) didn't resolve the issue.

Unfortunately, in trying to resolve this myself, I tried removing the VGA driver, but this didn't resolve the issue either, and now nothing on the HDMI output.

Have I bricked the computer, is there anything I can do at this point to recover?

Hello,
R3-131T, isn't displaying on the built-in monitor, nothing not even a flicker or bios screens during start up. Was displaying fine on an HDMI monitor (clone mode), and I noticed the touch screen (built-in monitor) was responsive (when I moved a finger on the black built in monitor, the "tail" showed up on the HDMI monitor and the display on the HDMI monitor moved around as expected).

Using the battery reset pin hole on the back (holding down with paper clip for 30s) didn't resolve the issue.

Unfortunately, in trying to resolve this myself, I tried removing the VGA driver, but this didn't resolve the issue either, and now nothing on the HDMI output.

I don't know of any event that caused the issue, but the computer is otherwise in good shape.
