Display Monitor not working

[jammer0n]

The connected laptop display suddenly stopped working. I can connect to an external monitor and everything works. The LCD screen flickers a lot, and goes completely black. I have to restart it a few times to be able to some portion of the screen, but slowly it fades to black.

When the laptop display fails like this, it can be a screen issue or a video chip issue or both.  The fact that an external monitor works OK rules out the video chip issue -- so your screen is failing and would need to be replaced.
