Solved: Laptop Screen wont turn on

sorry if this isn't in the right section seeing as how i don't really know if its a software or hardware problem but my aunt brought me her laptop and tells me to fix it. i turn it on and the lights on the keyboard come one and everything but the screen just stays completely black (it doesn't turn on) i tried plugging in only the charger to see if it was the battery but no, the screen just wont turn on so i cant even get into the bios or look at the POST. i don't THINK i hear anything spinning or anything, either that or it could just be really quiet. anyways i was wondering if theirs anything you could do to help? btw its an hp pavilion dv6000.

And as always your help is greatly appreciated.
