which one went blank, your laptop screen or the monitor..are you sure you have the laptops power cord plugged all the way in? i did a private party a few years back using my old laptop, and its was doing fine when all of a sudden the screen went black, i kinda forgot to plugged in the power cord
and it was running on battery...
