Do you get any sign of power at all ? Unplug the main power, for safety; check all the cables in / on the PC, then plug the main power back in. See what Happens.
If this is a Laptop, it is distinctly possible, that the Screen has died. If this is a desktop, with Separate monitor, check the signal to a separate monitor, or check the signs of power, if there is no power, or no sign of power, then the first place to start is the power supply, either on the PC, or on the Monitor

The display is dark... but are there any fan noises, lights on the front, disk activity, etc?
If there are, and it's a desktop, try another monitor... or try your monitor on another machine.
Likewise your video card, if it's not built-in.
If there's no activity at all, check the obvious... fuses, try another power cord, etc., make sure the "on" button on the front panel is connected and working.
Try changing the internal battery - usually a "button" battery in a clip on the motherboard
Have the supply unit checked - this is not something to do at home, unless you know what you're doing - if it's a laptop, check that it's getting a charge from it's power adaptor
Finally, take it to a competent repair shop and ask for a professional opinion - but be ready to spend money

I would say go plug it in first, but I hope your not that much of an airhead,
when you turn it on -
1) do you hear any noise whatsoever from the machine ?
2) does the monitor make any noises like its trying to power on ?
3) has anyone moved the computer tower from where it has been sitting ?
4) any chance of a dog or cat getting behind tower and messing things up ?
5) are you plugged into a power strip that has an on and off switch ?
6) try plugging a lamp or something else in to outlet to make sure it has power.
7) If the computer makes its noise like normal when it boots up, and nothing on monitor, check power to monitor and check the connection on back of computer make sure its plugged in tight.
8) Has anyone else been messing with the computer,, if so I would smack'em a few times till they tell you what they did to it,
if not,, then call a friend that knows about 'puters to come look at it,
otherwise call a shop,

Does the power light come on,on the monitor? After the monitor is on for a minute,run the back of your hand across this screen. Does it feel stat-icy? If yes, look to your video card for the problem,,;-)=

Check You cables first. If they are fine then if the monitor has a light on it see if the light goes on.If it doesn't then you cord or the monitor is bad. But if you still have trouble take it to a repair shop.

Check your cables. Make sure the power cable is in properly and that the monitor is also correctly connected to your computer.

1. Send it to the computer repair shop.
2. Buy a new computer.
