Choose notebook, then easynote, then scroll down until you find your laptop model :)
See attached image
Choose VGA for the driver you need

Does it have a connection for an external monitor? If it does, connect a different monitor and see if anything shows up. The fact that you are not hearing any beeps really sounds like either your display is fried or you have a serious motherboard issue. Anyone else have an idea? I hate to tell you this friend but that laptop does not get a high rating for reliability. New?

with HP its usually at boot startup, you can press one of the F keys to start it.

Try updating your video card drivers..
Didn't think Packardbell made computers anymore..

hi,
check if ur input socket is moving , i mean a bit loose. if so then u got problem with ur DC power jack of ur Laptop. u have to get it fixed. if it seems fine then there should be problem with ur power cable of ur adapter. get it checked for short circuit.

cheers :)
