Problem with laptop screen functionality
Hey there. I'm trying to figure out what's going on with your laptop screens. You mentioned issues with your X550VX display not working, even when using a different laptop. I noticed you tried connecting the X550VX display to another X550 series machine and still faced problems. Then you bought a new display on eBay and it worked fine. Now you're still having trouble with your original X550VX and the X550 models. I'm not sure what might be causing this, but I want to understand better.
For background:
Question - Asus laptop display not working
Hey hey. So its a pretty long story, and now I am trying to get my Asus laptop fixed, in fact 2 Asus laptops. So at first, my Asus X550VX wasnt showing anything on the display. I have attached the laptop to the desktop monitor and was working fine, but there was no image on the laptops display...

According to the previous discussion, it's hard to tell what works or doesn't work when dealing with multiple devices. I recommend marking each one clearly, like Laptop 1, to make it easier for everyone to understand.
I totally get that
So ASUS X550VX will be laptop 1. It is the one that I was first trying to fix. I powered it on and the screen didnt work.
Then ASUS X550 will be laptop 2. It is the second laptop I have, where I attached the display cable from the laptop 1 but forgot the camera cable in the laptop 1. I powered it on and saw sparks on laptop 1 camera and immidietly turned it off.
Then I have another ASUS, which works perfectly fine, so a laptop 3. If I plug in display from laptop 1 to laptop 3 it doesnt work. If I plug in display from laptop 2 to laptop 3 it works. If I plug in the new display that I bought to laptop 3 it doesnt work. All though display from laptop 2 works when plugged in to this laptop 3, it doesnt work when I plug it into laptop 2.
So what I have now are 3 laptops and 4 screens (but I wont be playing around with laptop 3 screen), so lets say 3 screens. Neither of the 3 screens work on laptop 1 or 2. 2 screens work ok laptop 3.
I hope that makes more sense now.
