@MrOGZ My advice as former HP user myself - just through out this HP shit in the trash can, it's not worth of repairing. I tried, and it was not worth it, especially when its older then 3-4 years. And dont buy HP ever again (if it's not some gaming high price model) - the quality of their low cost or medium segment notebooks just dropped to the bottom over last 10 years.
(But I can assume that the display cable snapped bcs of opening and closing the top, it's not looking like video card is broken to me)
And thx for the translation.
