Acer Aspire V5 - screen keeps going black - and the PC is not asleep
Hello Acer community
I experienced a few problems recently with my Acer Aspire V5, I made a return to factory settings (full erase).
I came home today and maintaining the current black screen, even if the computer is not asleep. I move the mouse and I see the office, but then after less than a second, it goes black again.
There is no applied screensaver. It's probably user error, but someone else knows this before and if so, how can I fix without having to go to the repair shop.
Thanks in advance
Just in case someone else has the same problem, a few reboots and an update seem to have solved the problem.

Portege M400 is frozen, screen goes black and the fan speed increases when moved
Can someone help me please?
I recently received the Portege M400 from a friend 4 days ago and reformatted for Windows XP Tablet Edition.
Everything's fine until I wanted to move the laptop to my coffee table, but as soon as I move the laptop it freezes, the screen goes black and the fan speed increases dramatically.
So far I have had no success in the resolution of this problem and I really appreciated, is that someone could help me!Have you installed the OS using a Toshiba recovery media or you have installed the version of the OS?

original title: Auto Adjust
Hello.
Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.
I tried restoring the system that works and that gets our screen back to normal but every day that this Auto setting is coming and we can't seem to stop it.
Any help would be appreciated... Thank you
Try this:
Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.
Then:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution
Change the screen resolution
Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.
See you soon.

Hello
You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
by tapping F8 as you start several times.First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
field efforts.Here's a video of one of them.

Blu Ray goes black and the sound stops periodically
Hello. My Blu - Ray player is a BDP-S3100. When on the home screen, streaming Netflix and Pandora, listen to music and even watch movies, my screen will turn black and the noise will go away maybe 5 seconds before returning. It does this constantly. He started doing this recently, in the last few weeks. It is said there is an update of the network, but also, my Blu - Ray does not connect to my internet. It is said that there is no password on my internet, when there is. It tries to connect and fails each time. It seems that everytime I turn on my Blu - Ray it was disconnected from the internet. I don't have any idea what is happening with the Blu - Ray.

Re: Satellite L500-19 X - screen keeps going black
Hello
I have a Toshiba Satellite L500 - 19 X and continues to go to the black screen.
When you start the computer it flashes briefly until start / Boot screen properly before going black right now. Sometimes, the image is displayed correctly for 3 or 4 minutes before also black.
If you hold down / tilt the screen under a strong light you can see a preview of the ghost of what should be displayed and if you connect an external monitor to the external monitor works fine and you can see a black ghost of what is on the external monitor on the laptop screen.
I tried to reinstall the drivers, but it had no effect.
Do you think I should replace the screen inverter Board or just reconnect the connectors screen?
Thank you very much for your advice.

Hello
First to solve this problem, you must disassemble the laptop.
I put t know exactly the procedure step by step for the L500 series but this procedure isn't very easy disassembly and you could damage other parts.Back to the question.
It seems that the graphics card is OK and the problem is with lighting.
Satellite L500 was equipped with a FL inverter Board and LCD joint (no backlight).
The FL inverter controls the level of backlight screen s and I think that in your case, this part is defective.
To resolve this problem, he needed to remove and replace the s FL inverter. -
Gateway vista laptop screen keeps going black several times!
I need Urgent help please. I have Windows Vista Home Premium x 64 Service Pack 2 on a Gateway laptop with model number MD2614u. Whenever my charger is plugged into my laptop, and I'm trying to use my laptop, the screen goes very dark (you can always sort of see it, but its really dark able to work with the laptop). This happens immediately after that I open the lid of my laptop. In order to get rid of the darkness, I close the lid of the portable computer, reopen and instantly the screen goes black again. When I don't have my charger plugged in, this problem will not happen. I also tried the system restore, that does not solve the problem. I appreciate help guys, I really need my laptop works again. For any other information on the laptop required, please ask. Thank you! :)

Aspire S7-391 pointer has disappeared and the trackpad is not working
Hi all
I've updated my Aspire S7-391 to 8.1 Windows and now the trackpad is not working, nor the pointer is displayed on the screen. Can I use a USB mouse without problem, and the touch screen works very well. However, even after you have installed the latest driver to trackpad MOMENTUM and by adjusting the settings, the pointer refuses to appear on the screen. Suggestions for corrections are most appreciated.
Thank you!
Hello..
You can press and hold down the Fn key and press the T key to check if the touchpad works.
If you have no answer, please uninstall the driver from Device Manager and restore the Acer recovery management pilot.

I recently hooked another monitor to my laptop, that was when the problem occurred, but even after restarting Firefox * and * my computer, it did not always work. By collapse, I mean when you press F11, the open tabs and the address bar appear smaller, and then they slide up until what you don't see it (unless you mouse over). Please help me solve this =)
Thank you!
You can right click on the tab bar or the Navigation bar mode full screen (F11) and make sure that "Hide toolbar" is enabled.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

Screen keeps going black on Satellite C series
This is my second toshiba, first of all it has been with me for years.
I have a new a satellite now c series but every now and again the screen goes all black.
I found the only way to recover from this is to turn off and wait 60 seconds before returning.I can't find anything in common between the situations when this happens.
I googled the problem and there seems to be a problem connecting to the screen on some models.
Is it my problem or is it something else?Could you provide some essential information first?
It would be useful to know what model of laptop and what system you have exactly.Have you checked the laptop for external monitor?
If this isn't it. It would be interesting to know if something would be visible on 2nd screen while the internal screen is black. -
