Sorry for stating the obvious, but sadly I have over looked this myself.
Most laptops have switches/ key combo that will enable and disable video outputs, ie. internal lcd and external video port. The most common is that there are 3 settings: internal only, external only and both outputs.
Take 2 minutes to try all settings before ordering or replacing parts.
