Regarding ; White screen , I flipped my notebook over and removed the power source(s) , power cord and battery. I then removed the three screws in the battery cavity and the two outside corner screws to gain access to the connection for the LCD and found a loose connection. It seems that the wire that connects to the screen was being moved every time I opened and closed my computer. So very glad to find that bulb and inverter board was not bad. Prior to this , I did try external monitor and found that all was okay as far as operation of start-up.

SOURCE: Compaq Presario 1700 PC Notebook Problem gives me a screen windows will not strat because file is corrupted or missing file is \windows\system32\config\system

Is this XP?
Do you have the XP cd or the recovery cd's. This needs to be fixed by performing a Windows repair.
missing or corrupt: \windows\system32\config\system"means that the OS,XP, is missing an essential file to run.
Or it could mean that your hard drive is failing. Is the hard drive noisey?

SOURCE: Screen fades to white, everything freezes, then returns to normal

My first thought is a video inverter.

Install an external monitor and see if the problem persists.

If it doesn't then it is the LCD on the laptop.

Good luck

SOURCE: how to fix compaq presario cq60-215dx black

Hi,
With the laptop turned on, shine a bright light onto the screen. Can you see anything on the screen (like windows log on screen)? If so, your inverter has failed. This can be replaced relatively easily. Please post back with the results of the above.

I have a COMPAQ CQ60-420US NB PC. Last few months some webpages would 'jiggle', I chalked it up to slow servers. However... yesterday the screen went white. I turned on the laptop, the drive and...

I would plug it into external monitor. it if works good on the monitor. could be bad video cable or lcd panel. video cables get pinched in the hinge or lcd get broken due to lack of support around the screen (poor design)

Hello, My laptop turns on and begins to start up but then goes to a black screen instead of the home login screen. What should I do?

If the normal login in screen is still partially visible under a bright light, you may have a faulty backlight. Get your machine checked.
The way to work around it could be to wait until the computer has started up (look at the hard drive light) and then put your machine into standby by closing the lid or pressing the power button (according to your settings). When you start back up again the screen should turn on as normal.

While replacing the LCD screen on a cq60, I removed two plugs from the LAN card. What are they connected to? I lost them.

These plugs are connected to a black and a white (tan) wire. These wires lead through the hinges of the screen assembly and attach to metal clips at the top of the display under the bezel. These are the wireless antenna leads. The card itself will have the words main and aux. on it along with a small triangle that is either black or white, this is color coded to the proper wire at its connection.
