Alternative to a POST failure, the screen backlight may have failed.  If you look very closely, very carefully at the screen can you see the screen contents?  If so, the backlight or its power supply has failed.  Most backlights are not expensive and not too hard to replace.

Another solution to a failed backlight is to use an external display.  Of course, you lose the portability of the laptop.....
