    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    It is all back in one piece. It was magically able to be connected to an external monitor, but there is still nothing coming up on the laptops screen. Everything is still on it and every other part runs fine. Last time I got the external monitor up it stopped connecting after I shut it down. But...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    Well a new back cover was ordered( so the hinges can actually be screwed in at all places) and the hinges where straighted out and loosened because they where extremely tight. The cover should hopefully arrive this week or the next and then the laptop can actually be put back together properly...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    Fans still blowing hot air and spinning. I retried the ram thing as well. Even that battery trick. Tomorrow I will be handing it off to a relative where they will try and take a crack at it. If that fails I will pay someone to fix it if its a price I can afford. I will update if it gets fixed or...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    The graphics card is built in so i can't switch it out. Its definitely, not the ram, as it would just shut off if the ram was defective.

    Not a good one. Replacing the lcd screen did nothing. Nor did the new touch cable. :notworthy::(

    I found it on amazon, so I think i can return it without a restocking fee if it doesn't work. That is if mine is a 40 pin.

    Thats alright, I wouldn't even bother ordering the screen until its closer to the date my hinges arrive. Which won't be until August 1-15.

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    Yup, here an update, was super busy the last few days, sorry. If the cost ends up being more than 100$ I would just move on and consider buying a new laptop in the future. But if its less than that I will go for it. Ive found lcd screens for the non touch version, but i don't know if they would...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    I never had the screen working, I was only able to connect it to an external monitor. I can't even find a replacement touch cable for sale. Once my new hinges come in by next month and i can actually put the laptop back together in one piece I'm either gonna get a relative to help me out or...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    So while trying to see if I can get the screen to come back on, I tried using my original LCD cable along with the new one, I'm not currently getting a signal to my screen or an external monitor with either anymore, (though I only got the external monitor to show up the other day with the new...

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    Oh don't worry all the stuff on my laptop is just a copy of the stuff on my desktop, which is also on an external hard drive. I got backups for days. :LOL: I'll play around with it some more tomorrow. I'm not home now.

    Solved Toshiba Satellite C55Dt connect to external monitor with a broken screen?

    I thought it was the hinge and the wire origonally, but when i took the hinges out and used a new wire nothing happened. So the hinges are not in right now and the screen isn't snapped into the back and front cover, should the screen still come on? Or should it only turn on when it's all in one...
