My friend Kaleb has a Lenovo laptop. He this morning came to my that the display can't turn on and I told him to take out the PSU and the Battery and to hold the power button to drain all left over electricity in it. He did that and put the pus back in and he tried to boot but the battery light came on mean that it is turned and but nothing came up. Earlier when he booted his laptop he charged it all night and when he booted it it gave advanced options to reset windows but he clicked start windows. He having problems ever since he has done that. Please respond ASAP cause I am trying to help him.
 
Does it work on an external monitor? The LCD panel is probably bad and would need to be replaced.
 
Is it a laptop? if it is, take it apart, and make sure the little cable between the screen and the motherboard is connected right, if that does not work, its beyond my knowledge.
 
If he doesn't even see the POST test when he turns the laptop on, then anything he did to the OS isn't the cause. Assuming he didn't throw the laptop in anger or spill something on it, I would to what Voyager said and try connecting it to an external display.

Do you see any other lights come on? Even if the display is bad, you would see the power LED and HD/Activity light flash showing that it's working. You should hear the hard drive spin up as well if it's not an SSD.

I would avoid taking it apart unless they know what they're doing.
