    Are you able to boot to safe mode ? ?

    If so remove the offending driver and re-boot...

      Because if you try to boot to safemode you may be suprised to see that you can see something...
      Have you at least tried ? ?

        When you turn the computer on do you see any image at all on the screen? Like the computer manufacturer's logo?

        Have you tried plugging in an external monitor?
