You could start by looking thru this site, although a lot I read suggests having
a specialized professional do the job for the most part.

Toshiba has had issues with this model regarding a dark screen. They talk
about replacing the backlight, but I have also seen this model's replacement
parts ranging from just the backlight to, the entire insides, then to
replacing the whole lcd screen with a new one. The last one is the most
expensive, obviously. Replacing internal screen parts looks difficult. I
might be afraid to take it apart, fearing I may damage something inside or
out. Is there a site that shows how to do it step by step. I found one
before, but they were taking apart a Sony lcd screen.

Have a look at Toshibas site to see if they have any known
issues/resolutions.

I am trying to recover an old Toshiba Tecron 8100 for a friend of mine.
However, the LCD monitor is dark, i.e., no display, colors, or backgrounds.
Just dark. I can hear the computer booting up and running, there's no
screen
to work with. I have been researching issues with this model laptop, and
they do have a history of display problems. More specifically, the
backlights burn out for whatever reason. I know this model is an old one,
but I wanted to know where I could learn more or if I am able to recover
it,
should I start with the backlight and its replacement. The other errors
and
issues need to be resolved, but I can't see the interface to begin
troubleshooting. Does anyone know of a similar problem and where they
began
to resolve their similar issue?
