Backlight LCD turns off after a short period of time

The LCD backlight on my Dell Inspiron 8600 turns off about 10 to 15 seconds after the start, or by turning on during mode 'sleep'. Windows is visible if reflected on screen so LCD light is seems to work. I've read the other posts that indicate that this is perhaps a problem with the inverter Board or the lamp LCD. Everything happens when running Dell diagnostics CD.

Does anyone have any ideas if it is the inverter Board or lamp LCD or something else causing this problem?

Thank you

  • WVC80N hangs or stops working after a short period of time

    Hey there,

    I created my WVC80N yesterday.  Went to a couple came back, he was frozen, no new video.  He did this ever nonstop.  I had to reboot the computer to make it work again. Obviously a big problem, but one that I hope there is a fix for or can I do something wrong.

    I use win 7 and tried both the software supplied with the cam and webcam xp5, they both lose the connection with the cam after a short period of time.

    Thanks for any help on this one,

    CR

    @crjb1, have you got it working under Linux?  I tried for about a week without result.  I noticed that Linksys-Cisco offers a GPL had driver/module for the wvc54gc, but not for the wvc80n.  Maybe I would have thought a little before you get all excited and buying this.

    The video quality when connecting to the web server of the camera is fine, but I can't get a stream using zoneminder video or else and the RTSP protocol feed doesn't seem to work at all.

    Vista home basic sreen goes black after a short period after start-up and then later after that stop he returned after starting, and then did the same thing

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • Canon t5i lcd turns off after taking pictures

    I just got my Canon T5i... I noticed that the LCD screen turns off sometimes after taking photos or videos. I don't know why... I did not press the "info" button and it will not turn back even if I press the shutter button to halfway... I know that the camera is still on though because if I press on the screen it will take a picture and this picture is stored on the card (after that I turned off the camera completely and wait a few minutes and turn it back on)...

    When the LCD is turned off, I can't get it on... I will touch the screen and try to press the display button to see photos, but it will start...

    and Yes, I disabled the auto lcd off etc...

    Here is a little video I made sure to show you what I saw. http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=TroZa5xLduM

    Should I have a defective camera?

    I noticed in the video that she has Lieview, take a picture and then the picture does not appear, and there is more no Liveview display.  She then press the Liveview button and nothing happens. There's no other option I can think of that allows you to turn off the LCD screen back when you're in Liveview. That tells me that the device is defective.

  • Screen turns black during a short period of time and after 5 seconds on the Satellite A200-1DN

    Hey there
    I have a little problem with my computer, when I start a game, more games, age of empires 3, nfs most wanted, grand theft auto: vice city etc, the screen turns black during the game and then corrects itself after a few seconds, it becomes boring xtremely, especially when you are in the middle of something.
    After that the game closed in the lower right of the screen in the taskbar, a pop up appears saying my display driver has stopped responding, resulting in at least 5 different file names that have stopped responding.

    I have a Toshiba TFT screen with direct x 10(which might be the problem with the older games,i think!).
    Any help would be appreciated.
    My computer configuration is the graphics card with 1.5 GB of RAM, vista and intel 950 processor intel dual core.
    THX.

    Have you tried to play a game designed to run under Vista OS or you have noticed that play WXP games on your laptop preinstalled Vista. If possible, try to get the Vista game and test it again.

  • Satellite A100 keeps freezing after a short period

    Hi, I wonder if anyone can help.

    I have a Satellite A100 laptop. The laptop starts without any problem. However, after a short period of time the system crashes and I have to reboot the machine.

    I am running Windows XP Home Edition. I tried to reinstall a new copy of windows XP Edition family. However, the laptop continues to freeze when I try to do something.

    Although the real time, it takes before it freezes changes each time.

    I have two 512 MB RAM chips, and I thought it was a fault memory. So I took each chip out, leaving the other chip in. It makes no difference, the machine hangs with either chip.

    Help, please. I would like to hear from anyone who might suggest what's not here.

    Thanks in advance

    Maybe the temperature inside the laptop could be the reason of this gel.
    I had once similar there is question. My frizzy 6 specifications because the temperature affected the memory modules.
    So I cleaned the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air and I replaced the thermal grease which is a space between the cooling module and CPU. This helped...

    You can try to clean the cooling also fans. But be careful and if you have no experience, then a mobile technician should help you.

    Good luck

  • Monitor may not turn off after setting the screen turns off after a period of inactivity

    Original title: control screen does not turn off

    My cell phone 6 year old runs today to Win XP Pro and IE7 and Firefox. My screen has been set to turn off after 15 minutes, but these days he keeps any. It stays ON all day.

    Attempted to solve by setting to turn off in 10 minutes, but it makes no difference, what could be the problem?

    TIA

    First of all, you don't want to do the hardware updates through the Microsoft Update Website.

    Secondly, there are a couple ways you can do this:

    1. go in the Device Manager (start > Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > Device Manager).    tedious, but this way you are sure.

    Double-click each item, having developed each sign, select the driver tab and choose Update driver, let windows search automatically, make sure that you are connected to the internet.  Do this for each item that you want to search for updated drivers.

    2. go in the manufacturer's website. For example, I use a Dell Dimension and move the driver Dell downloads Web site.

    If you mean hardware upgrade from Microsoft (not Windows which is software) you would search Microsoft.com site for driver downloads.

    Hope this helps, after back with your results, please.

  • 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?

    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.

  • Portege R600-10 q keeps freezing after a short period of use

    Hi I have a Portege R600-10, q,

    It keeps freezing after a short period of use - although if I leave it for a few minutes, sometimes it can be useful.
    If it is turned on for long enough, it will display a blank screen and the fans will turn on very hard.

    I cleaned ports ventilation and re-glued the CPU, and it did not make a difference.

    I ran HDD and memory (mhdd/memtest) diagnostics, and they have all done.

    I reinstalled Windows (from the OEM disc) and I still see the same question.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Have you noticed that when running special software or apps?

    I can tell you that a memtest does not always provide a good result
    Even if the memtest said there is no problem with memory, RAM modules could malfunction

    Otherwise, it may be a motherboard problem, but this is just speculation
