Computer laptop LCD screen showing nothing.

I stop the laptop yesterday evening. Tempted to put on in the morning but the LCD display lights don't. Windows boots to the top, the fan runs, the DVD player shows an activity, I can hear the windows startup sound, but not display on screen.

On the search through the forums, I came across a few tests to isolate the problem.

I tried:

1. the BIST(Built in self test) LCD: Passes. All colors are displayed without distortion of any kind. Crystal clear display.

2. connect the laptop to an external display: pass. I have connected to a VGA monitor. The screen lights up. I'm typing this message by using the form external infact.

As these two tests have been passed by the laptop. I don't know what the problem is. Is it the cable or something else? Please Guide.

Thanks in advance.

Vanjul.

Hello

Thanks for the quick response. One thing I would like to add that I found the display was not Virgin but VERY dim as it was almost invisible.

I checked with a local technician. He changed the display cable, but the laptop screen has always had a very dark view.

The culprit remaining was the motherboard. I did check and found that some officials of the transistor brightness control has gone wrong. He replaces it and Voila!

The screen is back to normal. Thanks for the help of sir. Very much appreciated.

Vanjul.

  • Is this ok to turn off V-sync on your laptop / LCD screen

    Is this ok to turn off V-sync on your laptop / LCD screen? I know they have a refresh rate of 60 Hz but it will happen if I turn off the V-Sync? good or bad? I know that nVIDIA recommends turning off V-sync to solve problems of stuttering with their current drivers until the next version of driver that is supposed to be in June, so that's why I want to have an answer of expertise regarding the V-sync on your laptop / LCD screen, how it)

    Hello berryracer,

    The V-sync is the vertical sync.

    I can't recommend V-Sync by in the game if possible, there not much difference from native or forced, other than forced takes slightly more resources.

    In addition, on the Triple Buffering. The triple-buff forced Control Panel works on application based on OpenGL.

    If a game has an anti aliasing, anisotropic filtering or any other option in the game its always best to use the set option instead of forcing by the graphics card Control Panel.

    Usually turning off V-sync increases the FPS, you can check it out.

  • Computer laptop white screen

    I have a computer laptop 'HP ENVY TouchSmart Sleekbook 4-1115dx", which is about two weeks after the warranty, and the screen is empty.  I currently have an old crt monitor hooked up to it and everything works fine with the machine - just can't see the screen.  Will I need to replace the whole screen, or can I just replace the Ribbon/string to the display through the hinges to the main unit?  Any suggestions with where can I buy parts for this would be very useful as well.

    Thanks for your reply.  I found that the 3 m tape was broke the cable of the LCD when you take the cover at the back of the laptop screen.  I unplugged then re plugged the cable Ribbon and respected band of restraint and large all worked.

  • technical question about the laptop LCD screen

    Hello

    I see in youtube change that a laptop screen is quiet easy.

    1 but is it dangerous to change the lamp or the laptop LCD converter when it is damaged?

    2. I know when the screen goes black and you can barely see an image in bright light you lost the lamp or the inverter, but how you can know if it is the inverter or the lamp?  because the inverter converts direct current to an electrical outlet which needs the lamp.

  • HP laptop, 2000 - 369WM: computer laptop not screen not work/laptop won't start not

    This laptop was headed for a few years, I'm not sure how much because it is not mine. My phone has been stalled next to the laptop and fell on it and the screen when it is dark. I tried to reboot it but the screen does not always work, it continued for nearly a day. Finally when I tried to restart, the laptop would begin to start but stop for two or three seconds in a power upward. Tried a hard reset, but it did nothing. After the hard reset the computer started, but froze on the Windows splash screen. Subsequently, he left always start after two or three seconds. Is stayed away from him for a week or so trying to figure out what was wrong with TI/where I could get help. Came back to it today to try and it works again, but this time he stopped on the dark screen and now it is a black screen with lines green all around him and a few blue lines. Do I have to take the phone to a technician nearby or is all hope lost for her?

    Hello

    As far as I know, that laptops come with a different hardware configuration. The same series of laptop computer can be delivered with the screen XGA and SXGA screen +.

    I think that you can replace your TFT screen to the other, but the display size should be the same.
    I guess the Tecra M2 needs a 14.1 screen.

    But why do you want to replace the laptop screen? First of all, you should know that the replacement of the screen isn't easy and it should be done by a technician or a person who has a good laptop experience. In addition, the new view is not cheap. You have to spend about $ 350 for a new game and I think that it s not worth.

  • HP 635 computer laptop blue screen at startup.

    I have important files on this laptop and while playing music this phone randomly cuts. I turned it back on and now ot support windows 7 in a few seconds and finally crashes with a blue screen.

    Then, I rebooted it and tried safe mode only to have nothing works. I tried to use ubuntu which usually works to remove the files that I need except the disk was not yet recognized until I chose to uninstall and do otherwise. I tried the recovery of windows 7 and it remains to do for some time and fails. I stuck inside another computer and for some reason any, it wouldn't start up, unless I plugged it in after that he began to start. This drive has never recognized. I finally tried new installation windows 7 as a last resort, but he then told me that it can not install the disk.

    I run hp diagnostics and I get 'Hard drive failure 1.' Is it possible possible to recover my files and get a new HDD without having to pay a ton of money to get everything back?

    HI Jeffreylbrown94:

    Thank you for your message.  I'm happy to help!

    I understand that you are getting the error 'Hard drive 1 fault.'.  This refers to a defect on the hard drive. I'll send "Troubleshooting Error Messages on a blue screen may occur during startup or Boot"  click here. You could try a Google search for some free or cheap data recovery software to recover your files.

  • Computer laptop cracked screen sent for warranty repairs!

    I recently had my laptop that is only two months old (Qomisio X 10 500 t) sent back to Toshiba for repair of the fingerprint reader. When the left laptop was in perfect condition and not a top scratch. having paid £1,500 for it I was very careful to keep safe. Toshiba sent mail UPS to perceive and delieverd to Toshiba, it was the next day. When I contacted Toshiba to confirm that it had arrived safely, they said that it had happened, and the repair team had begun to look at this day. 4 to 5 days later, I checked the status of service online, and he said required information. So I rang the customer service and they said that there was nothing on the notes and all well aseemed. 2 days after (today) I get a phone call saying that they found no problem with the hardware with the fingerprint reader, but they found a problem with the screen. After hold that they say that they have noticed a crack in the screen and have a prize of £500 for me to get it fixed. OMG! I told them that there are no cracks/scratches or anhthing when he left via UPS (their courior). I was asked if I had checked that UPS box and pacakaged it safely in front of me. They then say that they will contact me in 48 hours but the team repair always photograph the machines when they come in and say now it was cracked since the beginning. They sent me an email of the photo and there is massive cracks curved towards the bottom of the right side of the screen! Even then, they had the nerve to ask if I'd like to send them the quote so I said no cos I wouldn't pay for the repair of it.

    So what's with that position? Are they not corrected the original sin is the courior sent by Toshiba or Toshiba repairs broke the screen. I have no evidence that it wasn't like that before. I don't understand why Toshiba didn't ring the day they received, if there was a crack whethey opened the package? They would surely do this before even touching anything else. I think that the repair team broke and said it was like this before

    What should I do? I can't afford to pay for the repairs and even if I could I don't see why I should!

    Any input would be great.

    Thank you
