My computer's model is dell inspiron n5010 and every time i use it for an average of 10 min or so the screen turns white but everything in the background is still working and if I restart him the screen stays white or grey and only after some time that he is off he loads with the normal screen. While the screen is white I am still able to connect him to the tv and get a video signal.
I opened him to check of any cables were loose but none of them were and then plugged out the video cable and reconnected it and it didn't help. I also tried to blow air on the connections to clean them from a compressor and it still didn't help.
And where is the cable to the speakers because I think I accidentally disconnected it while disassembling the computer.
 
So if you get a signal to your tv or monitor without issues that is a plus because that means your vga works fine,so if i were you i would find the laptops monitor adapter and I would check if it is not loose or if it has dust,if this does not fix the issue I would start thinking changing the monitor
 
Its that i am not sure that its the monitors fault in 100% as the cable may be damaged by heat.
Saying that the monitor isn't working means that the computer is dead as I am not willing to put any more money on fixing it.
If there is a different way I would take it , otherwise I prefer do disassemble him and sell his party to buy a new one.
