After upgrade the memory i got half of the screen darker on my HP All-in-One 27-dp0004la..
I Think it has to be with the backlight, but not sure if it is the screen itself, the backlight cable or the motherboard that where the backlight cable came from.
Can you please help and advice how to find the real problem en fixed?
Thank you

Hi @Juandoval,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand your computer powers on but only shows a partial display on the monitor, is that correct? I will be happy to help you.
If you haven’t tried already, start with a hard reset.
1. Remove all cables from the computer, including the power cord
2. Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds
3. Once done, only insert the mouse, keyboard, and power cable
4. Try and turn the computer on to see what happens.
If the same screen appears, let me know, we can try a few steps.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
