• Satellite L750 - BIOS check error and now the screen is blank

  Good yesterday my laptop was working fine and was recommended to an update of the BIOS so I downloaded and tried while he was hooked up to update the BIOS, at half way through she says check error and nothing else, I therefore closed the BIOS window thing and close the cover I did not stop the computer.

  Today, I opened the lid and just fan continues to operate and the CPU light flashing but nothing else. What should I do? I tried the F12 and F2 method, nothing happens the screen does not come on, I will try to use an external monitor later in the day, but I don't think that is the problem.

  Thanks in advance even if I'm not all green if it's a BIOS problem. The laptop is less than 6 months old.

  Hey,.

  > I'll try to use an external monitor later today, but I don't think that's the problem.
  I put also don't think the monitor is the problem if it happened since the BIOS update.

  > if this is a BIOS problem
  With other words, turned something went wrong during the update of the BIOS and now it s a BIOS problem. Updating the BIOS is always a little risky If you do the update only if it of really necessary. Don t update the BIOS if you see there is a new version, but everything is ok. Never touch a running system ;)

  In any case, now you need an ASP to get rid of this aid. Guys have to reflash the ROM module professional tools:

  It makes no difference if the noebook is 6 months or 6 years ;)

  My MacBook froze during the installation of the update at El Capitan and now I am unable to connect to any except the screen of the guest user. There was a message of panic, and somewhere in there, he said no set of OS. I tried to start without danger, it does not work either.

  This general situation may be similar to what is mentioned in this sequel to thread of the CSA

  and if the remedy is to use instructions; detailed and I hope they are correct...

  Re: Restart fails after installation of El Capitan help!

  Or you can try and see on the repair of the system and then if your disk utility can

  See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to

  the Mac system, to see if this solves the problem. There may be more than one cause.

  You could try and boot into OS X Recovery, utilities out there, and other options are available.

  • OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

  This example uses a special partition on the hard drive of recovery which is not in the

  same disc that the Mac OS X section; However if your hard drive is missing, these other

  items may also be at risk. You must have and maintain backups of your duplicate content

  on the external storage drives closed; In addition, a Time Machine backup helps to restore.

  • Tips for OS X - using HD recovery:

  {Using the utility disc and other tools can be done from the boot OS X Recovery volume

  Beware of the fact these tools can also delete or reformat your content; wiping.}

  Don't know what to say; you could see visiting an Apple store with genius if

  There is an official store. Usually for best time planning you would contact them for an appointment.

  • Make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store Genius Bar
  • Find an Apple authorized service provider
  • https://locate.Apple.com/country - Apple - find places - selector of country (if outside the U.S.)

  Or if there is no official retail Apple Store with genius, the following suggestion would be to contact

  a service provider authorized Apple, an independent specialist who is qualified in the repair of Apple.

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!

  How can I go back to single screen?

  Hi Bilipino,

  You have more than one display card? Try to connect your monitor to the another card and see if you can get the display.

• My Air iPad screen has locked and now the screen is black can not disable either help

  HHelp my iPad locked up Air, tried to turn it off but nothing happened and now the screen is black, what should I do?

  Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

  • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
  • Press and hold the Home button
  • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

  Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

  If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

  Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

  As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo of iTunes on the screen of your device. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your device needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

• Random buttons and now the screen is tense! Help!

  Help, please!  One of my friends thought he was being funny keys at random, multiple at once, when I told him not to do so.  He pushed the buttons especially on the right side and part of the middle.  I don't know if it was a specific button or a little push at the same time that caused my screen to go wide.  Now, the screen looks stretched.  There is nothing in the settings, I found that it will change back and I don't know exactly what buttons were pushed to get there.  I really need help.  I'm horrible with computers and nothing on the web has been able to help me, YET!  I hope that someone out there knows the answer or is willing to help me understand.

  Right-click on the desktop and choose screen resolution. Choose it
  the default for your screen, as resolution its documentation says you.

  And don't let ever your 'friend' near your computer again.

• Qosmio X 770 turns on but the screen remains blank

  So my Qosmio X 770 turns on but the screen remains blank, it was randomly turning every so often, but now it is just blank.

  The hd works fine again, I tried to plug it into a TV to see if it works, but no signal is found. I was informed by a friend that it could be a problem with the graphics card, I wonder if it can simply be exchanged if I buy a new one or if he joined, and I have to replace the whole motherboard?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Even if the HARD drive is faulty, the laptop should be able to IT and you should see the home Toshiba on the internal display screen.
  If its definitely NOT drive HARD problem.

  You said that you have connected the laptop to the TV. You see the start of Toshiba on the external monitor (TV) screen? Are you able to access the BIOS by pressing F2?

  If this is not the case, there is certainly a hardware problem.
  It could be a fault of memory modules, graphics card or the same motherboard malfunction could be possible.

  GPU problems or the motherboard, the whole motherboard must be replaced and that's expensive fix because mobo belongs more expensive laptop.

• The screen is blank!

  I bought and 8 GB Clip a few weeks earlier.  I updated the new firmware the day I bought it.  Last week the player would skip/pause from time to time... while playing songs.  Then 2 days ago... He seemed to be running slow while navigating through the artists. I could hold and scroll... He would go to 10... then put pause... and then continue.  Now, the screen will not come.  The blue circle lights... and he plays songs... but I can't navigate anything now.  I tried a soft reset and hard reset.  Any other suggestions?  Earlier today... the display is mysteriously is for about an hour... Now, he has been out of the rest of the day.  A few days ago... I went from the MTS mode in mode MSC... formatted drive... and songs of reloaded.  Would this have something to do with it?  I can connect to the computer... and see the files on the PC... but still no display on the clip.

  Well, it seems that you have done all you can (and correctly). I think it's time to call 1-866-Sandisk for a replacement under warranty RMA.

• dv7 work, but the screen is blank

  I had my dv7-4180us for a month.

  The screen just deleted one day... the backlight of the lcd screen is turned on, and when I connect to an external monitor it show that the laptop itself works very well.

  When booting the laptop, the screen flickers when the hp logo comes on with the 'Starting Windows' screen (it flashes briefly and remains off even when you press F8 to access the BIOS screen). A cursor then comes to the screen (with the circle "busy" thing), for approximately 2 seconds, during which the display IS stable. Then that's it. You hear the sound when the logon screen is supposed to appear, and also when Windows actually loads. Occasionally, it sparkles, but the screen remains blank with the LCD backlight on. Fan comes on intermittently, as usual, all lights are functioning normally.

  Once she nomalised by itself for about 2 days, then deleted again. Windows restore did not work. The only support of HP said something had to perform a recovery, as it could be a windows problem. But it won't have the same BIOS display!

  Help!

  Hi again sent to the laptop to hp. came back, with the display now works correctly.
  On the worksheet they have ticked 'View' and 'Cable '. So, it is obviously a cable problem.

  Thank you all.

• New AOL e-mail: one quarter of the screen is blank on the right side, reducing the space for the e-mail subject line. Resize attempts do not work on the right side, so I can't expand the e-mail subject line

  The new AOL E-mail look, which yesterday began a quarter of the screen is blank on the right side, thus reducing the space for the e-mail subject line, which limits its usefulness. Resize attempts do not work on the right side, so I can't expand the e-mail subject line? Running XP pro and Mozilla Firefox 5. No problem with I.E.

  Thank you, these settings were already in place. AOL said now erase the cache, cookies and history... to solve, which worked. (I deleted the cache and a story time.)

• Tecra 8100: the screen is blank

  Several of my 8100 s Tecra have a problem with the screen going blank. They can be good for centuries, or 3 / 4 times in a minute, it can happen. Anyone know what is the problem or knows how to fix? Does not seem to matter the amount of ram it is or how big the hard drive is that it still happens. For now all I can do is press the button of the screen or open/close the cover of the LCD screen.

  Hello

  Is it possible that you have activated a screensaver on your units? But it strange s happened several times in the minute

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A135-S2276, I bought 2 years ago. It worked fine except the clock which has never kept the exact time since I bought it. I turned it off Sunday night as I do regularly.

  Can someone help me with the answer? Thank you

  It's hard to say what is happening to your knees. You can access Bios? Try to connect the external monitor and see (maybe the screen of the laptop disappeared)...
