Broken Screen can not view a single thing on laptop itself

I understand you got a crack screen on your laptop. Are you getting the login sound when you turn on the laptop. Are you able to boot into windows.

Kindly check the link given below:

Try to contact a local tech and change the broken display on the laptop.

Apart from connecting TV, you can also connect a external monitor to your laptop as long as you are able to boot into windows...

You can always connect the monitor to laptop using vga, dvi, hdmi cable and through the help of docking station if you have multiple monitors.

Please take a picture of the ports of laptop on your smartphone, take it to a nearby store and purchase the right docking station.

You can purchase a switch splitter. It will be helpful if you have only one hdmi port on your computer and you need to use two hdmi ports.

Kindly go through the details from link
