Laptop screen became staticky

I have a Dell Inspiron 15 bought last October. Windows 7. Have not installed any hardware, have not let down the laptop or spilled something on it. Last night I got it on battery and it entered into mode 'sleep' while I was eating. When I pressed the power button to get the "sleep mode", he brought to the top of the login screen. After that I connected the screen became staticky with rolling pixelated sections of blue and black. Hit the power button, cell phone shot and turn it back on, showed the Dell logo, brought to the top of the login screen, then took a few seconds for the icons will appear on the desktop. I don't have a screen saver. Called Dell, Rep had me run diagnostics, everything going on. He said that this was not a known issue. Worked very well the rest of the night and seems fine today. Anyone else encounter this?

It seems that the driver may have failed while the system has been put to sleep.  Just as long as things are working fine, after system reboot, you should be fine.  This shouldn't happen very often but I suggest keeping an eye on the system and if the problem persists I suggest reinstalling the video driver.

If you are not familiar with installing the drivers, go to support.dell.com and enter the serial number of your laptop and click ok.  Find the video section and choose the driver for the video card in your system. Download it and run it.  Check and see if you continue to have the problem.

Please let me know if the problem continues and if the video driver reinstall did not help, or if you need help to find what driver you need.

  • My laptop screen becomes empty whenever I disconnect the plasma

    Recently, I connected my computer laptop to LG plasma to see a movie (using RGB output) and changed the accodringly to display definitions. However, when I disconnected the cable from the laptop, the laptop screen became blank. When I reconnect the cable - I see the laptop screen (even if the plasma is off). Now I'm stuck to work with a cable connected to nothing...

    When you restart the computer, I see the screen, it disappears when windows comes on.

    I've redefined (by using windows + P) the computer screen only - did not help. I've updated the display adapter and monitor in Device Manager - did not help. No virus detected; Nothing to do with the BIOS...

    Ideas please?...

  • HP Pavilion e17 - 148 ca: [URGENT] need response on the laptop screen went blank question

    Hello there, this is the Prince of the heavenly Crown of Canada here.

    I've been a loyal user of HP consumer level laptop for 2 years.

    It seems that there is a problem with my laptop screen display.

    For my part, this is the first time this kind of problem has occurred.

    For some reason, in my current (well, now its my last) session, my screen became totally blank on me and turned black, as if the laptop was in a sort out of power status, however, the power of the laptop was always and until the issue has suddenly decided to occur before my eyes , I had been using the laptop and was even working on a coding operating... some of you may know me as the creator of the heavenly System.ini Crown Configuration file.

    Apparently, it is a known issue with HP Laptop, and I don't know if HP is actively focusing on the question of setting so that it does not become an inconvenience to other users of HP laptops or buyers.

    Is there a known solution as to how to fix this kind of problem? This is very critical and I was in the middle of the tent to save the rest of my code in Notepad on my desk, but I would speculate that asides from the 2 files I could save, the rest would have gone unless I would be able to resume my last session which I highly doubt at this stage.

    If someone could please let me know as soon as possible, I would appreciate it a lot.

  • HP Pavilion g7 screen became black all in use.

    Help, I was using my HP Pavilion g-7 the other day, while the game and the screen became black without reason appairent.  I have not loaded down recently and I run the anti-virus software.

    We went to the HP support website and went through several diagnotics.  When you restart the laptop the screen on the laptop starts flashing images of my top of counter, but once the machine starts the screen remains empty.  You can see the glow on the edges, but that's all.  I have another connected currently monitor and the system works fine except for that.  We also have the following, hard reset, Test for memory modual problems, test the hard drive.  I also tried to update the video drivers, but the system tells me that the drivers do not work properly.

    It's very frustrating because I'm a student and really need my laptop.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you in advance,

    ACameli

    Hi ACameli,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I read your thread on your HP Pavilion Notebook g7 and get a blank screen or black at startup. Try perform a reset. When you perform a hard reset note remove all USB devices and remove cards memory card reader location. Disconnect all non-essential devices. If that doesn't help try to turn on the computer, on which you begin to press F11 repeatedly until the menu opens. You can do a System Restore. System Restore will restore the computer to a time when it worked correctly. If you are able to see the book then connect to a monitor, it is not the graphics card or HARD drive. It could be the LED. The only way to find out is to check with a repair shop. LED can be tested in the DMM and they would have to this device. I'd be happy to help you to give you a number if necessary. How can I find my model number or product number?

    Please let me know.

    Thank you.

  • My laptop screen flickers

    My laptop screen flickers. What could be the cause of this. Sometimes it flickers for hours, but he never goes out. I'm running the last Norton and scanned several times for viruses, but nothing came.  I also tried TuneUp but that did not help either one. Sometimes tilt the screen at an angle allows, sometimes, it's not. Sometimes it's good, but most of the time he just goes to the flicker. It's a sorrento e-system 1 and running windows 7 ultimate. Help.

    Hi Vincent

    I'm afraid that this probably isn't a software problem I have an e-system sorrento 1 and have the same flickering of screen.

    As you said, inclination of the screen sometimes fix it. This shows that the problem is probably losing beween of wiring, the motherboard and the led screen.

    I was brave enough to open the case of the screen and found stirring a little of wire and a little electrical tape to attach the cables in a more secure way, I managed to "solve" the problem.

    However, a week later the twinkle was back. Tried again the same exercise, and flicker disappeared for a while yet.

    Here I sit when the case is open again, after that flicker became intolerable. As soon as I opened the box that the flicker went. Contemplating leaving the envelope off the coast!

    The opening of the envelope is to remove the rubber caps bit (a knife inserted under tham will remove them) on the corners and 2 extra on the upper band. Unscrew the screws underneath. Then using a sharp knife, gently insert the blade along the seam and twist at an angle to open the envelope (with a little wink - don't worry - it snaps back later).

    After that, you can find the problem went (exasperating when you replace the envelope and the flickering comes back a few days later) or you may find disappear twirling / fixed the son.

    As with all electronic exercises, be sure to do this with the power off, or at least don't touch any of the interns with the power. You can also get electronic technicians gloves or wristband to prevent the transfer of static electricity in your fingers.

    I'd like to hear electronic/PC engineer qualified with tips more that I have still have no permanent solution myself.

  • upgrade for HP probook 455 laptop screen full HD

    Hello

    I have a probook 455 and I wanted to know is there any screen full hd or hd + corresponding to this model?

    I think my lcd is like this:
    http://www.LaptopScreen.com/English/model/HP-Compaq/ProBook~455~G1 ~ (F2P93UT).

    and I read this link:
    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-video-display-and-touch/HP-ProBook-4540s-upgrade-laptop-screen...

    I want to know if other hp LCDs or other brands can be used? Help me if you know the full hd or hd + lcd model.
    in fact, I am not satisfied with contrast of 455

    Yes and no.

    Not as long as the computer and the components are designed to best suite with eachother. So manufacturers will not support using incompatible parts if custamization is accepted.

    Yes because there are technicians who can mix and match components but the combination must look and regular maintenance. I would not advise this as it can be found in failutes and questions.

    Workaround would be to buy a monitor (ecternal) HD and plug it in. There are n number of options in the HD monitor of your choice.

  • Qosmio G20-139: use the laptop screen to play on the Xbox 360

    Hi I have a question about the monitor function with the G20-139,

    I have an xbox 360 and would like to know if there is a way to use laptops screen to play on the 360 in high definition or composite mode using the monitor function. With the laptop came a composite cable at one end and a sort of headphone 3.5 mm at the other.

    I read the manual about the case and it does not work.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks

    Hello

    The port monitor - where you can connect with the composite cable can be used to display video from your digital camcorder, video game or VCR on the internal LCD screen. It can be used as a line-in port to allow the connection of a stereo device for audio input.

    In my opinion, you also need this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with composite cable plug-in software component.

    Then to commence the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button that starts the Qosmio player.

    I understand that you have a black spot, down from the top of the screen a green line. You can connect an external monitor to your laptop. If the external monitor is displayed well, it may be the laptop screen broken. You can contact the store local repair, or HP support by phone for repair.
