After I log in to Vista my screen turns off

I tried everything and when I connect my vista my screen goes black and just the cursor shows.  I don't know what happened, but nothing is on my desk at all.  Any ideas?

Jason1973,
When you log in in safe mode, the problem persists it or does it go away?

If it fails so that it starts properly in safe mode, and your system restore point does not go far enough to solve this problem, then a reinstallation may be the most effective way. However please provide us more information about what you are experiencing, being the only thing I know now the description provided by the original poster.

Note: If you decide to reinstall, make sure you back up all the important data before you continue. Please see: methods for backing up your files . Rami

  • Inspiron 9300 screen turns off after the Windows Logo screen

    Inspiron 9300 my wife became severely infected.  I thought I had some weird things start popping up of the problem decided to wipe the hard drive and start over.  Unfortunately, I don't have to restore disks when I bought the computer.  I install windows xp pro service pack 2 full retail version.

    Installation was not a problem until I installed the driver ATI Mobility x 300.  I followed directions for installation from the website, do the installation of xp followed of the dell system software update followed of chipset followed video driver.  After that whenever I put on, the screen turns off after the Windows Logo.  The computer is still running and if I plug an external monitor everythng is fine.

    I tried all the troubleshooting tips I've seen in this forum.  I did a full install twice. made of safety boots (all right), started in VGA mode (works fine), I ran diagnostics from fn on startup, including express, extended and video tests and they pass all the controls.  I'm sure it's a software problem, but have been unable to solve.  I've updated the ATI bios although when I run it says already installed and done one installs x 300 driver on 6 ttimes own.

    I know it must be something simple that I'm missing. My system is the Inspiron 9300 with 2 GB of ram and the mobility x 300 card.  Any help would be appreciated.


  • Gigaframe L81 - after 2-3 seconds, the LCD screen turns off

    Hello!

    I think, I missconfigurated my camera... I put the automatic light (auto light) options, then the LCD is turned off. OK, its light of day here, but how can she Cook?

    And - perhaps because of the thing said? -its LCD screen turns off every time, when I push the power on button. I'm tired of using the reset switch, but she has - at least, in the LCD - no effect.

    Device is reset, then lights up the screen, I see him starting, I can touch control "buttons" on the right side (I can see the blue lights), but after only 2-3 seconds, the LCD display turns off again.

    Although I can do anything on my camera - attach PC files, copy or dele (ordered from Windows) etc. I just don't see anything in the LCD screen.

    What's wrong?

    If it still does not work after resetting it, then it may be a hardware problem.

    I think that you will need for repair/replacement.

  • LCD screen turns off after a few minutes

    My screen turns off after a few minutes, even if the parameters to be able to say that he should turn off after 60 minutes of no activity.  Before this date should activate the screensaver after 10 minutes of no activity.  But in my case the active screensaver ever and my right monitor fades to black.  What can I do to fix this?  Is there a registry setting that has changed I don't know?

    -penciline

    I checked power options, the first thing, and then I checked the (NVIDIA) graphics card Control Panel to see if there is a setting for it.  The figures that I had in my previous post came from my power options, but I don't know how standard power who do not have the numbers that it would affect the schedule/performance options.  I went to advanced settings.  But I also rebooted my computer which solved the problem, in my opinion.  I'll have to sit and wait to be sure, but I'll get back to you on that once I have test.

  • Latitude D610 screen turns off after the Windows XP loading screen

    I'm having a problem with my Latitude D610 where after the Windows XP loading screen, the screen turns off completely. No BSOD, no login screen, just a white screen. This started happening at least a year, however, I bought a new computer if it is passed to the hatch. I tried the system restore when it appeared first without success. The computer starts in Mode safe. Any suggestions?

    If it starts in mode without failure, then its almost certainly a driver and with the blank screen problem, I suspect a display driver.

  • Satellite A210 - 17L - screen turns off

    Hello people,

    I have a similar problem to [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=61255&tstart=15], screen turns off by itself randomly, but backlight remains lit and laptop always seems to work (judging by fan). This started after upgrading Vista to Windows 7 (new installation), there was no problem before. I tried to update the display driver, first ATI Catalyst, then Toshiba official one, the customer pays less often, but still doesn't work, it's nice embarrassing ;) It occurs regardless if the laptop is used or just slowed down and is not caused by overheating or saving energy, also cell is generally connected with mounted battery.

    I have the last opportunity to go and update the BIOS, but I'm in fear of bricking the thing, so he would try as a last resort.

    Any idea guys?

    Thank you

    Hello

    There is an easy way to solve this problem: connect an external monitor and check what happens. If everything is ok on the external monitor installation (Windows) and internal monitor are ok, the problem must be internal monitor itself.

    If it s the monitor itself it s inverter FL, LCD cable or LCD itself. That s is not easy to say on this virtual path for your laptop needs to be checked to an authorized service provider. Guys can make an accurate diagnosis.

  • Expansion of the files is at 27% and then my screen turns off? : s

    Hi all, I read the other thread on this subject on the website, but as usual the problem I have is simply a little more boring, I would like to re-Morphix vista compeltely but in order to do so I obviously need to go through this process. As the title says, when he reached 27% on the expansion of the files after the first reboot, it goes no further, then after awhile my screen turns off. IM typing this text from my laptop at the moment in the hope that all of a sudden my screen will restart and it will continue, but I doubt it very much.

    I understand more information may be needed to help me then please just ask. Thank you.

    P.s. This problem during one accurs installation from the cd rather than boot. When I try to boot from the drive and runing installing it, my screen turns off agan normally just after entering the cdkey for vista.

    I have no idea why this is happening, but if I have the sort I would be very very happy :)

    EDIT: A little later and the screen is back on, sound saying "Please wait a moment while windows prepares to start for the first time" then after that, there are a lot of points and moe points keep coming (etc.) I hope it's a good thing: S

    2 How much RAM you have in your computer?

    If you are unable to boot to the desktop, then unplug all external devices and try to install windows again.

    If the installation fails again, then start in the system recovery options, and run the Windows memory diagnostic tool.

  • Access code is lost as soon as the screen turns off

    When I turn my wrist after that my Apple Watch screen exploded, I need to enter the access code. I turn on the wrist, the screen turns off, I turn back, screen lights up, I need to re-enter the password. And so on and so forth. The watch does not maintain the code.

    I am white white, is not dense hairs on my wrist, no tattoos and I wear the watch very well on my skin.

    The funny thing is: it is a replacement watch, I got today. The other had the same problem, but this is probably because the bottom of the watch with the sensors fell, must have damaged the sensor cable. But this one is brand new.

    Hello

    Make sure the wrist detection is enabled:

    Hi Julie,.

    It sounds as if something is harming your graphics driver causing the display to turn off. If the problem occurs only when you use certain applications or only started after installing a new application you may need to restore your system to a restore point before new applications have been installed. As a test, you can try to start your system in safe mode and see if the problem persists.

    I also recommend that you re-install your graphics drivers to see if it improves the problem.

    Other possibilities are that your graphics chip is a failure or overheating causing this problem in which case you have to return your laptop to a Service approved for the additional diagnostic agent.

    My last thought is that you may have a problem with the inverter FL (the component that provides the lighting of your LCD screen). Check, when the screen turns off, if you can still see a residual image on the screen. If yes then the FL inverter is definitely at fault.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite 1800 - 752S - the screen turns off

    Hello world.
    I have a satellite 1800 - 752S.
    Since an ew months ithas a weird problem: the screen turns off. If I press and release the button the lid on what it is, but after that turns off again quickly. OT goes off sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few minutes, or even hours. Sometimes it provides be when I run out of battery and bothers me on AC, sometimes against. It works fine, after I turn sleep or hibernation several times, and after a reboot, it bothers me. I've updated his BIOS for the lates on this site, which would not help. I guess it's a hardware problem, because it's the same problem under Linux, and I tried to install different versions of drivers and windows (not only the one of the recovery CD). Anyone have the same problem before. Any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you very much
    Roman

    Hello

    I think you're right, it's a hardware problem. But to be sure, try connecting an external monitor. If it works without problem while laptops, screen turns off, then it must be a hardware failure.

    I guess it's a problem with the FL inverter. You have to give your machine a service partner Toshiba for repair.

  • T420 screen turns off and turn it back on when the AC adapter / CC is attached or removed

    You are working on your machine, staring at the screen and the power failure... Yes - something quite common in these parts of the world... but no worries, the screen darkens slightly according to the diet plan and you hardly notice. Then, when the backup generator kicks in and the power is activated again, the brightness of the screen is back to your usual setting. Meanwhile, it is not a gene. Right?

    Well, that's what should happen... except that most of the time it doesn't work! Most of the time, the screen turns off and then turns on remove the main power and reinstall it. Note that this never happened once with T61 or T41p.

    Initially, I assumed it was because I had an external monitor attached... maybe it was to reconfigure something there? But then, it happens even without the external monitor. Then, I tried looking for the video driver updates... maybe this bug had been fixed to the... no luck there.

    So, finally, after having known this more often now, I thought I would get feedback from you all. Any advice?

    Check the Intel Media profile with the power settings. If a battery is "Maximum economy" mode then it should be in Exchange for 50 Hz to 60 Hz... Change it to balance or maximum Performance and see if its ever-changing from 50 Hz to 60 Hz...

    If all else fails, try updating the video driver, it might be a bug in the previous version of the driver.
