He needs a new display peice, or the light is broken. Just take it to a computer technician.

That could be a number of things. If the laptop is still under warranty, you should check the laptop company website for info about repairs. Also, keeping computers on all the time makes them last longer. Things wear out mostly when you turn it on and off. 
but if you dont let it cool down or anything like that, isnt that bad for the computer?? *~ ~* 
If the computer is properly cooled, heat isn't a problem. Was this laptop getting very hot?

im not sure, i wasnt there when it happened but ive seen his laptop get pretty hot before and hes dismissed it like its nothing. is there person above who said its something with the display or lighting correct?? *~ ~* 
Could be. If the laptop has a regular monitor port, you could try plugging the laptop into a regular monitor to see if that works. If it doesn't, then it's probably not the display. It could be a problem with the bios or video card, or some other problem like bad memory, a motherboard problem, or if the laptop got really hot, a burnt out processor. LCD screens do have a little fluorescent light bulb in them, but I've never seen one burn out suddenly--it's usually a gradual darkening/yellowing over time.
