hey donk, it appears to be a back light issue, it will boot up i can hear it
booking, once it is booted, i can take a flash light and shine it on the back
of the led, and see the windows desk top, all the leds light up like they
should. and yes i can enter the bios.

Do you see led's on the keyboard lit up? Do you hear sounds as if the laptop
is booting - but you can't see anything on the screen?
When you say you tried 2 different "screens" I'm assuming you mean
external monitors? When you try an external monitor be sure to
press Fn + F4 to switch the display to the external monitor.
Can you see anything on your screen at all when you boot? Try
quickly tapping F10 right after you press the power button to see if
you can enter BIOS setup.
If the screen is totally black during boot, and an external monitor
doesn't work, but you hear the pc booting up... there's not much you
can do. It is probably a failed video chip on the motherboard.
