When I try to start up my Dell Vostro 1088 it just shows a blank screen. The hard drive and the CD drive works. I can hear some sound. But I cannot even see the Dell startup splash screen. How can I fix this?
Edit
I don't know what happened but when I started it today it worked.
Best Answer
Do you have an external monitor you can plug into? that would point to a display/video issue
Does it beep? If so, what's the beep pattern?
Are any lights coming on?
Was it doing anything unusual before this started?
