    My new dell XPS 16 is 2 weeks old. Today opened it up and no display. Truned it off and back on still no display. I can log in via facial login on the cam just fine. So i know its getting into Windows 7.

    Anyone seen this? Before I call Dell in the morning?

    that didn't work. Dell is sending out a Tech to replace the LED lcd.

    Guess it went out. works fine with display port, vga, or hdmi. I tested them all. display just appears to not get any power.
