  "textContent": "Out of the blue, my older Toshiba Laptop that I rarely use lost it's video. Black screen even during the boot stage.\nI even tried the HD output (which I've had never used IIRC). The only difference is the Boot screen did come up (if you can call it that) as a green 4x3 screen full of noise as in a very poor signal, then it went black. the HDMI TV sees a connection, but nothing.\n\nI removed the SSD & the 2 memory chips and re-seated them, but no difference (which didn't surprise me).\nI disconnected the power feed (the battery was not connected) for a couple of minutes and reconnected it, but no change.\n\nCan I assume the video chipset is toast?? FWIW, It's running W7 Pro x64 if that matters. I rarely use it, probably it's been 3-4 months last time it was used with no issue.\n\nModel is Satellite L775D S-7226",
