I was reading and suddenly the screen just went black. i have tried powering it up again nothing seems to work. It sounds as if it is running (fan going, plus the light is on in the power button). Most of the suggestions on the site say to hook it up to an external monitor, but I don't have one. Anything else to try short of calling the company?

The backlight is broken. These are small flourescent tube lights about the width of a pencil lead. You dropped the laptop and the bulb broke. It will have to be replaced. The driver has nothing to do with your problem, reinstalling it will not get your picture back.

I don't see a listing in the manual for 5 beeps as you describe

Try taking out the hard disk, plug in power and see if you have a display on your screen or external monitor. if same thing happen, try taking out the memory card. If you hear a beep sound it's a faulty mem. card, if no beep sound appears I suspected it's a motherboard faulty.

The next tim eit is turned on, try shiniing a bright flashlight directly on the screen.
If you can see anything there then the backlight has burned out on the screen, and will need to be replaced.
If you cant see anything, try hooking up an external monitor to the laptop, if you have a desktop the monitor for it will work for the test..
If the external monitor you hook up will work, then you will have to replace the screen..
( or at a minimum the inverter board, or check that the cables are tight that go to the screen)

if your sure the screen is not the problem then unfortunatly your looking at a motherboard issue and this proves sort of costly sometimes i know its a real pain but you can have someone repair it for you or simply buy another motherboard and have it installed im sorry but that is all you can do at this point! i hope this helps!
