HP Pavillion 14-B130SA
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
Hi

I have a Windows 8 HP ultrabook (14-b130sa) and stupidly disabled the graphics adaptor, screen went black and since then I havent been able to see anything. My screen was broke anyway so had to use a monitor, but since then nothing comes up.

I took it apart and removed the CMOS battery for half hour, put it back and it didn't sort the issue out and am now lost for ideas. There is also apparently no jumper pins for it. This was also done iwth the battery and charge lead disconnected.

it powers on fine but when i connect the hdmi the display just goes to sleep, instead of displaying. I dont know what else to try and have no other computer to test with. I was expecting that to resolve it, but it hasn't.
 
Product number is 5CD2500PV9.

Any advice would be appreciated
 
Kind Regards
Pat
