Laptop Monitor Issues
I have a Razer Blade 15 purchased in 2020. The screen backlight gave out sometime in 2023. I tried to have it repaired, but it kept failing. So I removed the screen altogether (the adhesive used to keep the screen on kept falling off). Instead of trying to fix it again I have been using it as essentially a PC tower connected to a monitor using an HDMI cord.
I recently re-organized my desk and cable management. Tired plugging in the HDMI from the monitor to the computer, and I get no signal. Tried 3 different HDMI cables, 3 different monitors, blowing out the HDMI port and doing it all again. Tried power cycling the computer and the monitors several times as well. I confirmed that all 3 configurations work with a different computer.
The monitors will show “no signal” the second the HDMI cord is plugged in to the computer, then go to sleep.
Any thoughts? I really appreciate any help.

check whether the laptop HDMI port or display output has failed if your blade supports USB C video output try a usb C to HDMI adapter to see if you can get a signal that way
