My Aspire 5600U has gradually been going black.

It has gotten to the point where it will only blink on startup and stay black.  Could it be my bios?, video card? etc. Any help would be appreciated.

    if you have an external monitor or TV, i would try to connect and check if any image is visible.

    if it works, probably is your AIO backlight or inverter that is having some issue, only a service center can repair it.

    I'm not an Acer employee.

    They thought that it was my motherboard but discovered it was my harddrive gone bad.
