Please help. My HP Spectre x360 Laptop - 15-eb0043dx screen is blank. Plugged it into an external monitor and everything shows up on there. When I look in settings, my laptop is not detecting it's own monitor, it's like the laptop screen doesn't even exist. Easy fix? Ugh. It hasn't even been 3 years since I first took it out of the box. I barely use it, maybe 5 times a year and now this. No drops or any other accidents. I am so extremely disappointed and frustrated.
Any suggestions? Please!
Thank you!

Hi @Skmbar,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
I understand that you are facing issues with a blank screen.
Perform a hard reset

- For detailed instructions on resetting your computer, see HP PCs - How to Power Reset Your Computer.
- Turn off the computer.
- Disconnect the AC adapter.
- Remove any discs from the disc drive.
- Remove memory cards from the card reader slot.
- Disconnect all nonessential peripheral devices, such as printers, scanners, external hard drives, and USB flash drives.
- With the AC adapter unplugged, press and hold the power button for approximately 15 seconds.
- Reconnect the AC adapter, and then turn on the computer.
- NOTE: If an error message is displayed, see Troubleshooting Error Messages on a Black Screen During Startup or Boot.
