You should have a tv output. Try connecting it to see if you get a display there. I have had this problem with my 9200se. I am using the DVI output for our HDTV. After trying to configure the hardware settings. i.e. disable the sound card I often lose my display. However it will still be on the tv. Or if I unplug the DVI cable and restart the computer I can get my display back. Not sure if this will work for you but it can't hurt and I'd be interested to know if I'm not the only one having had this happen. Good luck.
