Shine a light on it, can you barely make out anything on the screen? If so, the backlights are dead, happens a lot, you'll have to get it sent to a shop to replace the LCD backlighting, or you can attempt to replace em yourself.. but I don't recommend that as laptop LCDs are very fragile

Hmm.. so no matter what angle you look at it from, it's completely dark?

If your laptop has a connection for an external monitor, you might try connecting to one and see if it works. Also, I found this link which has suggestions for troubleshooting the dark screen problem: Troubleshooting: My computer displays no video . I opened the site and got no indication of any kind of virus, but be advised you do so at your own risk.
