Inspiron M5030 Black Screen on Boot

As the topic says, when I boot my dell Inspiron M5030, I just get a black screen, no beeping and yes I've connected the external out to a monitor with no success. It was working fine a few days ago, I shut it down and went to bed, got up the next day and this started. The power light comes on, the HDD light lights up and blinks so I know that something is either being written to or read from the HDD, but I don't get the POST screen that says DELL or anything... Just a blank screen. I would say it's the back light but the screen has a white hue to it and to my knowledge that is the back light on the screen.

I've checked the RAM, HDD, etc. to make sure it was seated correctly still.
I removed the battery from the MOBO in hopes to reset the CMOS to maybe get some kind of screen but it resulted in the "System Time Off" beeps (5 beeps) but they stopped after a reboot.
