• HP Envy 17 built-in screen went black after system updates.

  Hello!

  Earlier today, after updates monthly to Win 7 Home Prem (64 bit, Engl.)  I had the problem with the display of colors with my HP Envy 17. It turns out that caused Windows Silverlight (?) to indicate only a few 256 colors (?). So I plugged another screen (Samsung 22 inch SyncMaster) as external monitor to the computer.  This worked OK. So, I removed the updates of windows outside one by one, starting system after each file. After the removal of Silverlight, the built-in screen returned to original resolution and colors (1910 * 1080, 60 Hz, 32-bit). Then I reinstalled all the other updates and started the system. So far, I was happy. The original problem has been resolved.

  Then, I checked the status of HP Support Assistant. He suggested the update of the program itself and some 5 other updates. I've updated the HP Support Assistant first.  That went well, I guess. After the system start, I checked the other updates the new version of HP Support Assistant suggested. This includes for example. update the BIOS and 4 other updates. After download and installation of these, system startup has produced, triggered by the update. OK to start the system, and Windows started a little. But then the screen integrated (HP laptop) do not continue to see the picture more, external only display gave the image. I used the double at this stage display mode. -Only when you start Windows in safe mode, the screen seems to work, but with a limited resolution and properties.

  I tried to change display modes (dual Extended display, disconnect, projector only), but the screen does not appear. Or, if we turn off the lights (black room), one can imagine to be able to see a light screen Veery also (built-in display) - so some photos also forms in this case (the built-in screen of HP Envy 17). Remove the external display and the system startup without it does not help.

  Please help me and teach how to bring back the computer screen in life!

  Hello.

  Just letting you know that the screen of my HP Envy 17 2050ea now works fine! What helped was a call to the local HP support; Today, I managed to pass through. He suggested to delete the display driver that I did in Safe Mode, as the built-in screen still worked. I've done the following:

  * I started the system using Windows Mode safe mode with networking (press F8 to get there after startup)

  * The I went to the Device Manager (you can use the start search to find)

  * There, I chose the graphics cards. With the right button of your mouse, I have selected to uninstall the display Radeon (TM) driver. In my case it was Radeon (TM) HD 6850 M.

  * After the driver has been uninstalled, I started the system. System booted normally (complete Windows).

  * Now the display settings were a little strange, but the screen has worked

  * After a minute or two, automatic update of the display driver has occurred. System infomed me to this topic. Then I rebooted, to allow the driver to use.

  * After reboot my screen was back to normal, as it was before the problem.

  Summary: The problem has been resolved through resettlement of the display driver. Fortunately, heavy recovery or reinstallation of the entire system was not necessary.

• After you download updates from windows on 13/03/13, I get an error scanner that reports a problem of communication. I still can't print. Printer is HP Officejet 4680 connected via a network c

  I get an error code 4 [(2,7,800,40007)] after installing updates from 13/03/13.  I restored the system (Windows 7) to a restore before 12 o'clock point and all is well.

  Thank you

  I added the updates one at a time and then restarted each time.  Between each update, I also tested the scanning interface.  At the time where all updates have been added to the scan function still worked.  My guess is that the order of installation, or (more likely) the obligation to reboot between updates made the difference.  I still have my wife updated so will update this when I do the update.  Either way, I remember when I went from XP to Win7 in 2010 I had the same error, but that has been resolved by the HP driver updates.

• IdeaPad S500 Touch - screen goes black after driver update

  I have a Lenovo IdeaPad S500 Touch. It is running the latest update of Windows 8.1. He proposed an update of the video driver from Lenovo. After downloading and installing the update, the screen went black. When the computer reboots, the Lenovo logo appears on the screen, and it goes black again. No matter what I try, that's all.

  Does anyone have a suggestion?

  Thank you

  Hi Scoutmaster316,

  Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!

  You will need to restart the system in safe mode.

  There is the only option to boot your situation is down to the system startup

  When you turn on the system, Lenovo Logo appears then black screen maybe wait a minute hold it the power button down until the accident it you must reapeat this 4-5 times until it starts to a page like this

  

  Once you have got to follow these choices that

  Troubleshooting / Advanced Option / start parameters

  Then you should rerach options with, select Safe mode which.

  If the driver is the problem, you should be able to start here,

  Open the Device Manager and rollback video driver

• BlackBerry Z30 don't switch call to the speaker using the navigation. Screen went black accept after phone call.

  I have this problem no need of me.

  While driving and use any software of navigation, such as:

  1. built in maps

  2 Waze

  3 NavFree

  If someone calls me, I can take the call. But immediately, the screen went black.

  I can't switch the call to the speakerphone. After random seconds, to switch screen might look for a second glance, and then the entire screen turned black.

  Although it is black screen, I can't do anything, including trying to drag up to close current app/call.

  Maybe it's something to do with the Navigation periodly software disables screen timeout?

  Hello, Yes,.

  Is this the same problem as described here:

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/BlackBerry-Z30/Z30-keeping-the-dial-pad-quot-lit-quot-when-in...

  Discussion on how the screen turns black during a regular call, it is impossible, for example, to listen to a call and to have the keypad remains lit, so you can press the right numbers while dealing with an automated reception, was doing phone banking, or using any other system that relies on automated messages.

  The problem came down to how some people take their phone (especially when trying to listen to the guests and press the right button at the same time).  The solution has been to hold the phone differently.  So my question would be whether the phone is blacking out because of the very special combination of things happening in your scenario, or is it blacking out because you're online and proximity sensor of the phone thinks you're holding it to your ear (and think that when you do this, you want to have blackened keypad).

• 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.

• I tried the clean boot and now the hard drive works simply and screen went black. The mouse still moves around the screen without any outher work keys? That is what it is?

  I tried the clean boot and now the hard drive works simply and screen went black. The mouse still moves around the screen without any outher work keys? That is what it is?

  Hello

  You will need to reverse the clean boot, as it is either incidental compared to
  the real cause of the problem. What, where you try to fix initially using the cleanboot?

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If so you can try the configuration - control panel
  The Device Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click the driver UPDATE - then
  Right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is
  CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
  by tapping F8 as you start several times.

  First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
  Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
  Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
  field efforts.

• BlackBerry Smartphones Storm1 screen turns black after sheathed

  I have Storm1 with v5.0.0.328 OS, with 3 "third party" installed applications. (Visual Voicemail, VZ Navigator and VZw tones) I do not have, or do anything else is running in the background. My problem is occasinally, after I unholster my Storm1, the screen is black. I press the buttons at the bottom of the screen, even the release button, nothing happens. I have to do a battery pull to Storm1 works again. Normally when I unholster Storm1, the wallpaper is displayed with a message, the screen is unlocked, press on unlock button to unlock. What's this problem of "memory leak" or something else?

  Thanks for the help. I did the upgrade to v5.0.0.419 on my Storm1. My computer is Windows Vista, so I had fun a little hard to find certain files (c:\program files\). He did not exactly "vender.xml", but I managed to make it work. I did the backup and restore when the software prompt RIM came out. Only problem, all my MMS saved disappeared, but a single message from Verizon is still there. I consider that it is minor, because I saved a few media media card. I can can still send and receive e-mails, sms. MMS. I do not know if this OS update will solve the occasianally Storm screen goes black, after unholstering. But I mark this resolved for now.  Thank you.

• Change the resolution of the screen and the screen went black

  Then I tried to change the resolution of the screen and the screen went black.  I tried to restart, plug in my HDMI port on my TV... Nothing.  So I went with a system refresh (yes I'm sure it was a refresh and not a restore).

  The fact that there is no integrated procedure to detect the moment where that happens and return to the old resolution is annoying enough...  But now after that choose the system update and it would be only to reset the settings to default back and keep all the files (as he said it would be), I am extremely frustrated to know that it has deleted ALL my programs.  Program E-v-e-r-y.  This means that Chrome, Firefox, jGrasp, AutoCAD, all my programs Microsoft Office, all my Adobe stuff, my Visual Studio and so much more that I'm not naming.

  I REALLY hope there is a place where they were stored so I don't have to reinstall everything manually.  If not, then wow, Microsoft... We finished.

  Unfortunately a refresh as he said, only maintains personal records (program data), the data can be located in the "in the"Windows"folder windows.old folder normally C /: Drive, all modern apps should be kept."

  All programs of office/legacy (Chrome, Firefox, jGrasp, etc.) need to be relocated from their original sources

  Keep all of your programs, personal files (data), settings, the best option is to create a "Disk Image" - see link below for info.
