My laptop crashed after playing a game and when rebooting, the keys and fans work but the screen is black, what could cause this?

I've already tested to see if the monitor is not working by connecting to a different one, same black screen.

Got it.
Please press the Windows key + Ctrl + Shift + B. This command actually restarts your graphics driver—which might itself fix the black screen—but also emits a beep.
