After compaq splash, the screen is black with blinking cursor.

Hello

I have a CQ45-217TX, I had installed openSUSE and decided to install a different linux OS. During the installation, there was a problem and I had to give up. The power stopped in my house, causing the laptop turn off because I do not keep the battery in it so that at home.

Now, when I start the laptop I can reach the BIOS but all start result just options in the black screen and a cursor. I have run all the tests in the BIOS and all passed. I also checked to see if the hard drive is recognized, which is.

My windows Cd is in Taiwanese that I can not read, but does not start when even (I tried to see if I could intuitively reinstall it)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Solved. Subsequently managed to start with external CD drive.

    Update firefox9. Using tree style tab extension. Everything works fine, except that my screen goes black when in 'tab window', with the exception of the window of the tab and the part of the screen behind him. Once out of the tab section everything comes back fine, but it is rather annoying.

  • at idle, the screen go black and says cospla 1scr does not work

    When the computer is idle for long periods of time, the screen turns black with notice cospla-1SCR microsoft looking for correction does not. This happened for several months now.

    What program is it and can I remove it does not, and microsoft has no answers to fix it.

    I think the message is Lightn ~ 1.SCR. That would be a problem with the screen saver you have.

    Go to control panel of configuration, appearance and personalization or customization in Classic view, and then click Change screen saver and choose something else.

    Hello mpm068,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Since your iSight webcam works up to the time that your Mac goes to sleep, I would like you to start please help desk trying to replicate this problem then to reboot in safe mode:

    1. Choose the Apple menu > shut down.

    2. After your Mac stops, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.

    3. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.

      You must press the SHIFT key as soon as possible once you hear the startup tone, but not before.

    4. Release the SHIFT key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.

    To exit safe mode, restart your Mac, but no press during the startup.

    Take care.

  • Laptop screen stays black with the mouse cursor only after that comes the HP and Windows logo

    Hi all

    No, my laptop model is HP Pavilion dv6 1337tx. My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. So, today, I shut my laptop down by force by pressing the power button because it did not at this time. Then the next time I turned it the wrong problem started. Whenever I'm on the HP logo sometimes and then the Windows logo comes also. But then the screen stays black and the mouse cursor appears. So, what can be the cause of this problem? I also tried to open with 'safe mode' and 'safe mode with command prompt', but they did not help either.

    Note - I tried the method of discharge after taking off the battery and holding down the power button. He could not help. All LEDS are working properly. I have no extra monitor, so I can't check the display elsewhere. Also, I ran the memory test which shows that everything is fine. Please suggest what I can do now as I can not enter the laptop now. What can be the reason?

    Black screen with blinking cursor:

  • At the beginning; After the Windows Logo at the start, the screen goes black and a POWER SAVE MODE comes up. I must stop button. I can run the computer as I am now in Mode safe mode with networking.

    When I turn on the computer of gateway, the machine starts and the initial window logo starts and runs for about five seconds.  Then the screen goes black instead of blue and stays black for about 10 seconds.  A 'Power SAVE MODE' appears.  The machine is dead to all orders.  I have to stop by pressing the off button.  I can turn back and the F10 key to get in Mode safe mode with networking.

    I tried to reinstall Windows XP original but it would erase my files.  I tried to restore the last good configuration also knowledge.  That did not work.

    The change came after a Windsows update.  I have McAfee security and I asked Windows but could not use due ot a conflict. -C' is all this bad start.  Clues?  I use Negear.  No change when I hooked directly either.

    Botton line, I can run in SafeMode with networking; but it is slow and I can't make alll I have to do.  What does not load Windows?

  • After you enable SLI on the Satellite x 200 mode the screen goes black

    Hi all

    my name is Alessio and I encounter the following problem with my Satellite x 200-24e with Vista home 32-bit:

    Recently, I updated the operating system and yesterday I updated the VGA driver with the latest version available on the web site of Toshiba (display-20080904102618), everything worked fine but when I activated mode SLI the screen went black.

    I restarted the laptop and I tried to boot Vista on a regular basis, but I still got black screen.
    Then I started Vista in safe mode and reload the VGA drivers to set the SLI mode since the safe mode did not identify the model VGA.
    Can anyone help me solve this problem and get the SLI mode working again (I was able to set the SLI mode before update the VGA driver)?

    Thank you

    This wonderful s information.
    It of strange that the screen was dark after the SLI has been activated but it looks like it's working now.

    Thanks for your comments

    After the loading of barbie, equestrian club, his game is ok but the screen is black and doesn't let me do anything

    Hello

    1. what operating system is installed on your computer?
    2. is it works much earlier?
    3. don't you make changes before the problem?

    Check if the game is compatible with Windows 7 Compatibility Web site. The game mentioned above is not listed in the compatibility Web site, it may or may not be compatible with Windows 7.

    I suggest that you follow these steps and check if the problem persists.

    Step 1:

    Update of your display drivers and check if the problem persists.

    Step 2:

    Reduce hardware acceleration and check.
     
    a. click the Start button, Control Panel.
    b. now, select appearance and personalization. under display, select adjust screen resolution.
    c. now, select adjust the resolution.
    d. click Advanced settings.
    e. now, click the Troubleshooting tab, and select the change settings button.
    f. in the Security dialog box, click on continue.
    g. move the hardware acceleration slider to the third notch.
    h. click OK.
    i. restart Windows.

    Step 3:

    If the game worked fine in the earlier version of the operating system, I suggest you run the game in compatibility mode.

  • Portege R100: The screen goes black after installing SP2

    Hello
    Currently, I tried to install SP2 for my laptop (Windows XP pro) R100. The end of the installation procedure I restarted the system, as requested. The windows logo appeared, then the screen went black and the only thing I could see was the mouse cursor.

    After several reboots, the situation did not do better. I tried to go on safe mode, but I had the same (only this time the black backround was typical registration of safe mode on the sides). I will perform a system restore without having to install SP2, but the fact that I am on a DSL connection most of the time very important SP2 installation.

    I would appreciate any solution to this problem.
    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    As far as I know sometimes a few utilities and drivers must be updated after installation of the service pack 2 Microsoft.
    On the Toshiba driver page I found a backgrounder update of Microsoft Windows XP SP2 that contains a few s information about the utilities that must be updated.

    However, additional I found a lot of new drivers for R100.
    I think you should also try to update the old drivers as driver utility and the graphics card chipset.
    Eventually, it helps.

    It could be that your video settings have been set to a resolution that your monitor does not support.

    You can start mode (repeatedly tap the F8 key during startup key) safe?  Safe mode requires a video resolution supported by all monitors.  If it works, try to change your video resolution settings
    (Control Panel-> display-> (tab) settings.
