Keyboard and Power Button are on but Screen is Still Blank

[jsimonson2]

My computer has both the lights on the keyboard and the power button lights on when I open the lid. However, when the lids opens the screen reamins blank with a black screen, until I restart the computer. It's very annoying to have to restart the computer. Sometimes the laptop turns on, after about 1-2 hours without opening the lid the computer does thhe whole blank screen thing. However, if I open the lid before then, the laptop actually works. Using it for school is frustrating because I have to wait for 3 minutes until I can do anything.
