Dark screen
My Thinkpad X 201 has been slain with a Dim screen all day - I think that since I have connected to its docking station to connect my external monitor. Problem persists when I remove but
When I go into the power settings to adjust brightness, that nothing is happening despite the displacement slider and keys change of brightness on the keyboard do nothing either - does not even show the brightness on screen display
The screen is not dark just very dark (near the lower brightness I guess)
Does anyone else have this problem?
If you are in a completely dark room, the screen emits no light?
Try changing the brightness using the keys while in the configuration screen of the BIOS (F1 big ThinkPad logo valve).

HP Pavilion 15 n043ee - dark screen
The screen of my hp pavilion 15 043ee N laptop is extremely low. I am unable to see anything on the screen, unless I have shine a flashlight on him, and even then, I can barely see. When I connect it to an external monitor, it works very well. I restarted and press f8 to access the bios screen and is also dim there as well. My laptop is only a few months old, and it's very disappointing. Please advise me on how to solve this problem. Thank you
Hi iverson999,
Welcome to the HP community! I saw your post about the dark screen on your new building. Good call by connecting it to an external monitor. From what you described, it seems that the converter to display may not work. Since it is a hardware problem and a few months, I would recommend that contact you HP. You can reach HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or Start here if you live outside of North America.

Satellite Pro 4600 dark screen
Hello
I use an old satellite pro 4600. If I try to use them in the operation of the line, the screen is always black. Even if I press the sleep button, it becomes only completely briefly (1-2 seconds) sound, then immediately again darkly. If I use them on akku, it works. Will be - it only occasionally after dark, can however still vivid be squeezed. I also feel he crosses with online operation more power than akku. Is this a problem of attitude or the laptop needs to be repaired? Thank you very much for your answers!
I had to same problem with my laptop A100... It is very annoying. Can someone give some answers please?

Dark screen / low intermittent on my Pro Sat 1110
Hello
I have a portable satellite pro 1110 and the screen go dark. He only passed from time to time but now it happens almost all the time. I see about the images on the screen, but it's so dark I can't read anything. The last time it went dark it flickered several times before that happened really dim. I tried to adjust the brightness using the fn key, but that has no effect. I took it to a pc repair center and they suggested it might be one of the 2 probs:
-faulty inverter, but they never met an intermittent converter prob so that they cannot be 100% sure
-faulty screenI don't want to go forward with either that they are unsure if they will solve the problem. Anyone could do more about this light?
See you soon

Hello
I agree with the guys from repair center; There must be a faulty inverter of FL.
Sorry, there is nothing to do. You should contact Toshiba service in your country to replace this part. -
Hello
I hope someone can help me with a problem with the screen. My 1800-s100 wouldn't hibernation last night and when I restarted it the screen remained black. It is not completely black. I see running windows and office, but the screens are very dark, as if the contrast was set to the extreme. Someone has an idea what it is? Since it is about 4 years old what age matter? Any help is appreciated.
Hello
You have this problem just after hibernation mode this happens a lot of time if you start the laptop? Is it possible to change the brightness? Try to change it using FN + F6, F7 key combination.
If there is no possibility to change the brightness and the display remains dark all the time, it is possible that the FL inverter must be changed.

Satellite 1800-911 too dark screen brightness
I have a Satellite 1800-911 that works correctly, except that the screen is too dark, you can barely see.
I tried 3 screens and 3 inverters that work correctly in a 1800-354, without result. I also changed the cable from the motherboard to the screen without success.There seems to be no control that affect brightness: I tried the power saver routines: no difference.
When I connect to an external monitor, the image is perfect.
The laptop is a new installation of Windows ME linking the restore CD.Hello
make combinations of already tried the "FN" keys on your keyboard to make you brighter screen? If not already so I suggest you perhaps it helps.
If not, I guess you have a problem on the motherboard.Welcome them

Hello world
I have a problem with my screen. Suddenly it went dark. The LCD is ok and an external monitor works just as well. I don't know that it is not too expensive to repair.
Someone an idea how much I have to invest in a service for it?
Thnx for a response.

> The LCD screen is ok and an external monitor works just as well. I don't know that it is not too expensive to repair.
The cost depends on the defective part
It seems that this issue is not related to the question of the graphics card because the external monitor is ok.Why are you sure that the LCD is ok?
You see something on the laptop s?If so the problem may be related to FL inverter. This part is not expensive but it of difficult to replace and I think the best would be to contact a local ASP.
The authorized service partner could provide that all need information on costs and how to manage it -
Satellite P10-304: very dark screen with negative colors
I have a SP10-304.
One day I swithched turn it on and the LCD display seems negative like a photographic negative.
It is very dark, but the colors are there just upside? I connected to an external monitor to the rear exit and it worked well.The backlight of the screen seems to be bright enough so I guess that it may need a replacement LCD screen.
If anyone can help...
Concerning
PaulHello
If you are a lucky man, you won't need to replace the LCD view screen but only the inverter FL. The screen is more expensive laptop parts and it would be very unfortunate if the LCD would malfunction.
To me, it sounds like a fault of FL-inverter and this part is not very expensive.
I guess to contact the technician to change this part if you have no experience. -
Very dark screen of the Satellite L300-1FJ
Hello
I have a problem with LCD display on my Satellite L300-1FJ.
It is very dark. At startup, I hardly see what is on the screen.I tried to increase the brightness, but it doesn't seem to work.
Hello
You mean you cannot increase the screen brightness by pressing FN + F7?
Well, I think that the FL inverter is faulty.
If the FL inverter starts to malfunction so everything on the screen will appear like behind a thick fog.
In most cases, the FL inverter needs to be replaced.So contact the ASP technician in your country and ask for help!
Good bye

S 3000-S353: dark screen
Hi, I wonder if someone can help me.
For a few months now, the screen darkens, as soon as I turn on the computer. Dark as in as no display, but if I squint really, really hard I can still see everything in the background.
It is used to occur intermittently, as it would happen and if I restarted for about two or three times it goes back to normal without problem.
But the last two days, it darkens and no matter how many times I reboot it will not brighten up.
I think this isn't the energy saver, and I can not yet use the FN combination.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance
Hello
I think that you have a physical problem with your computer. my suggestion is to contact a service partner and they give you an estimate on how much it will cost to fix.

Vertical lines and darker screen on Satellite P30-109
Hello
I have a Satellite P30-109 running on Windows XP... But my screen is slowly becoming bad. It's getting vertical lines from the top of the screen down. In addition, the colors are much darker than before.
But when I plug in an external display, there is no problem. So I do not think that the video card problem? He spent the period of warranty.
TNX
Haris
You are right; If the same question doesn't appear on the external monitor then it s certainly not a GPU problem!
I think it might be a problem with the LCD itself or with the small role as a FL inverter.
I think you should communicate with ASP in your county for a check.Maybe if you're a lucky man, only the small part malfunctions and the replacement wouldn t be expensive.
Good luck

Motorcycle display (keep dark screen) does not
Hi, I see a display bike option, IE KEEP SCREEN DARK from xxx to xxx
I put the time, feeling that it will take my Off motodisplay during those moments even if I give a jolt to my phone
So which aims to do, its does not work for me...
and I feel very boring with Bright Light when my phone moves when I move on bed, at least try the Penumbra or make the option KEEP SCREEN DARK put to work
I think he keeps just dark if you receive a notification when the specified period. Proximity/motion wake up it.
