Reset my PC without seeing the screen

Hello,

Is it possible to reset the PC without having the screen on? I had a problem with my laptop and the screen is broken (the pixels), and I was playing on a TV using an HDMI cable, but it no longer displays on the TV. Is there a way to reset it using just the keys?

    Good evening,
    It's doable if your laptop has a video output that allows you to connect to an external screen... but what’s your interest in resetting a laptop without a screen?
    If it's to recover your personal data, it's simpler to take out the hard drive and copy it to another device.
    Best regards

    Good evening,
    Even with an external screen, if the laptop's graphics part is not functioning, there's no chance of displaying anything!!
    And that can happen sometimes.....
    Best regards.

      Hello, I wanted to know if I buy a USB to VGA adapter if it would work to project the laptop screen to the TV since normally it doesn't connect to the graphics card.

    Hello,
    USB to VGA for what reason?
    What about the laptop, what is it actually, we don't know for now!
    If both the VGA on the laptop and the TV are available, you just need to connect them with a cable, right?
    But once again, if the graphics part of the laptop is not working anymore, there will be no display.

      It's an HP notebook laptop and the VGA doesn't connect to the graphics card, so it would allow for displaying the screen on the TV and using USB since I don't have a VGA port on the laptop, so it could potentially work. And on the laptop, there are 2 graphics cards: one from Nvidia and one from Intel.
