Black screen, can see the startup menu if I shine light on it
Hello all,
I just purchased a used Macbook and all was fine up until a couple days ago. I turned on the laptop everything seemed fine except when I tried to open it, the screen would go dark so I had to close it then open really slowly to keep the screen light on, not fun. Now the screen is dark regardless of what I do and the apple no longer lights up. The laptop still starts up, no funky noises just can't see the screen unless I use a flashlight.
Could it be a backlight, a cable or board, sorry I'm really new to the Mac and of course I have no warranty so I'm looking for help.
I don't know my correct OS info cause I can't see my screen 😟 but apple gave me 2007 Macbook when I entered the model #.
Thank you 🙂
