Got this off of Craigslist for $50... Can it be fixed or did I get screwed over!?
Chances are the lamp was reinstalled and didn't get put in the right position. There could also be a problem with the concentrator/heat shield lens or light pipe (if it has one). Sounds like either someone replaced the lamp and didn't get it back together or the unit has been dropped.
SOURCE: LCD projector not displaying image of the laptop
On that Dell, you have to tell the laptop to display the image on an external unit--look on either F4 or F8--you will find a small TV screen symbol. You have to press and hold "alt" and press the key. The options are, 1-show image on just the laptop, 2-show the image on the laptop *and* something else, (like a projector), or 3-show an image on JUST an external display. NOTE: Sometimes, you have to turn on the projector FIRST, then immediately turn on the laptop so they boot together--just one of those strange things...(remember, **for example** first press of "alt" F4 will get you laptop and projector, second press of "alt F4 will get you JUST the projector, third press of the keys will bring you back to just the laptop)---Rick

I have the exact same issue with my projector and was wondering if anybody has an idea what the problem/solution could be? Have checked all internal connections, wiring, etc. but nothing is physically wrong with it. Powers on and off with no issues; bulb is working but no light out of the lens. Please help!
