Load = nearly black screen?

I came home from class today (I'm a freshman college) and turned on my g6 Pavilion computer to check my e-mail. My battery was at 15%, so I decided to plug in the charger. It was fine in the beginning, I scoured Facebook for about five minutes, but my parents came home shortly after and I wanted to help with groceries. I close my laptop for about ten minutes, and when I turned it back on, I noticed the screen was a bit dark, it is sometimes the first awakening, but after the screen came back to life, she began very suddenly and smoothly from going dark. Very dark. It is about 10% of its normal brightness. I can still see everything, but it is very very dark.

I knew something was strange, and generally seeing her Gets a little dimmer when it is unplugged, I disconnected to see if she was going to die, being a battery problem. To my surprise, he got more light! and not just a bit clearer, it brilliantly as I remember put!

I checked the settings, thinking I had accidentally set incredibly low brightness when charging, but everything was the same, with the brightness set to a little higher than mi for the plugged in and unplugged parameters.

I don't know what is happening. I searched online for the answer, but found nothing too useful. Only, I bought this computer at the beginning of the last quarter, end of September.

I took good care of this laptop, unlike my last, my last laptop was dropped twice and he never acted funny. I gave it to my parents after owning it for four years.

Help, please. It is a strange situation.

Have you tried to stop completely and perform a restart?

Try a hard reset. Disconnect all external devices first.

battery and power cord 1 / removal

2 - Press the power button for 30 seconds

3 reinstall only the power cord for the first start.

4. turn on

    Hi Burton089,

    Your hypothesis is right. To resolve this problem, we need to repair your installation of Windows using the Windows XP disk. We recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the laptop to check if they have the Windows recovery disk.

  • Vista does not load a black screen with arrow

    Windows Vista will load only a black screen with the white mouse arrow.  I can move the arrow but by pressing the keys (including ctrl-alt-del and ctrl-shift-esc) does nothing.  The only way to turn off here is to press and hold the power button.  Same thing in safe mode.

    I tried the "Repair your computer" option (F8, or from the Windows DVD).  The Startup Repair option says that he finds no problem.  There is no restore point on the computer if it is not an option (it isn't my computer, the person who owns it is said that there should be a restore point, but if there is, the computer can't find it).

    The Dell (F12--> Diagnostics) system diagnostics found no problem (I'm sure this isn't a hardware problem).

    I tried to do a "repair installation" as in Windows XP, but this isn't an option in Vista.  The closest thing is an upgrade installation (boot from the Windows DVD, select install, upgrade).  But this option is grayed out, and he said to level I have to start the installation of Windows.  But of course Windows won't load.  Very smart Microsoft...

    The only option left is to do a clean install.  All programs and files are saved if we have all the data.  It will be just to save a lot of time and hassle if I can avoid it, and I'm surprised that such a feature/option useful XP has disappeared from Vista.

    Any ideas how I can fix this without having to do a clean install?  Thank you!

    Hello biznatch.

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.

    Unfortunately, after trying a startup repair and hovaing, restore points is no longer to go to resettlement is all that remains to be done.  Excuse me, but this is what must be done.  It is excellent that you have already backed up your important information.

    Thank you

  • Windows Vista does not start. The BIOS loads then black screen with blinking cursor.

    So my friend told me that his PC was not working. When you press the power button on the pc, the screen of the Dell BIOS load but instead of starting then Vista it shows just a black screen with a blinking cursor. Still, the BIOS detects the hard drive and has the ability to boot from it, but it just that again. I tried the recovery disk windows, and when you click on the "Repair" option when it loaded usually shows a list of the operating systems installed and their hard drives. There is no listed on the Vista recovery cd. Manually, you can browse and find the partition from the OS than its sequel, and clearly see the windows directories. It all simply not start, nor let the recovery disk to fix it because the operating system is not detected. I plugged the hard drive on my pc with the same results. Then I started my Win 7 and Explorer, disks and partitions are once again still visible with the appropriate directories. Windows says the drive is working properly and has no file system errors. When viewing in the hardware Manager, he says it's healthy (primary, active partition). My hard drive working correctly says healthy (boot, pagefile, primary partition). Why used it boot and why the recovery disk not recognize the operating system and how can I fix it or do I need to format and reinstall vista?

  • Lenovo black screen randomly Y50-70 times

    Hi everyone I have a very strange problem with my laptop. Here's the Specs (copy-pasted from amazon because I'm lazy):

    Lenovo Y50-70 39.6 cm (15.6 Zoll UHD IPS)
    Intel Core i7-4710HQ, 3.5 GHz
    12 GB OF RAM
    Hybrid SSHD 1 TB (8GB) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860 M / 4GB

    Since I bought it (about 1 1/2 months of passes) after I installed Windows 8.1 and improved to 10 I sometimes get a black screen, no cursor as has happened repeatedly after upgrading to w10, always helped restart and everything was brilliant.

    The thing is that my screen will not turn off, it's all black, but always on (visible by the light light is always built). It started to happen very rare, perhaps after a week or so, but today I get the problem constantly with different models:

    through normal startup:

    -Start-up of the PC-> black screen

    -Start-up of the PC-> "LENOVO" appears-> black screen

    -Start-up of the PC-> "LENOVO" appears-> Windows load-> black screen

    -Start-up of the PC-> "LENOVO" appears-> Windows load-> welcome-> black screen screen

    -Start-up of the PC-> "LENOVO" appears-> Windows load-> the Welcome screen->-> connection-> black screen

    -Start-up of the PC-> "LENOVO" appears-> Windows load-> the Welcome screen->-> connection-> after a random time: you guessed it - black screen

    The list is repeated several times today which made me crazy enough then and now, also restart does not power more...

    The same phenomenon occurs during Advanced Start (the small button to the left of the power button), even when I asked for a Startup Recovery. It works well is that during safe mode.

    I tried several things, such as the removal of the Intel graphic card, which gave me access to the normal mode of the system. Here I have updated the BIOS to 3.0.3. Now, I'm testing the Nvidia Driver (relocation etc.). Interestingly, I have observed a disturbing "PnP-screen (standard)" which had a yellow flag next to it in Device Manager, although no second monitor is plugged into the machine. Maybe it's the a boring me severa hours today.

    Also, I am plugged to my TV right now which helps me get at least a photo. During this State, there are also 2 'pnp front (standard)' listed in the Device Manager, none of them with the flag...

    Guys do you know something about this problem, anyone has stumbled across it too much and THE TIPP to save me and my sanity?

    Kay, gentlemen.

    After calling amazon (seller) and Lenovo and "help" from a friend, I decided to return to win8.1. I reinstalled the drivers, settled everything back the way I needed her, saved our day by finding our Starbound universe still exists and! No black screens no more. It seems that this unit has still some problems with the operating system most recent Microsofts then Yes, I'll wait... even though I liked 10... :/

    Cases can be considered resolved and thanks for everything the world where with me on this quest. Cheers on you guys!

  • Black screen with flashing '_' in the upper left corner.

    Im running Vista 64-bit Home Premium and recently ran chckdisk because the computer found some "bad sectors" and prompted me to run. After reboot, the computer loads the image in which I can press "delete" to enter the bios (which I do), then press "tab" to go to the post OFFICE (which has no effect and always load the black screen with a '_' blinking at the top left. If I do nothing, the black screen with the '_' blinking always appears after the image. I can't start in safe mode or access the "Advanced Boot Options". The only thing I can do after the black screen is press "ctrl alt del" in which the same process begins.

    I bought my computer from online retailer so it did not come with any CD to restore/recover...

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes to the system?

    Check her unplug all devices external (except keyboard and mouse) and if you are able to boot.

    If this isn't the case, I suggest you contact the manufacturer or retailer for a Windows Vista Installation DVD.

    Once you have the DVD you can try to perform the Startup Repair.

    Method 1: Run a startup repair.

    (a) Insert the disc.

    (b) restart your computer using the power button on the computer.

    (c) If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

    (d) If your computer is not configured to boot from a CD/DVD, check the documentation that came with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings.

    (e) choose your language settings, and then click Next.

    (f) If you are using the Windows installation disc, click Startup Repair. (g) click ok when you are prompted.   Follow the steps in the link to perform a startup repair. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/startup-repair-frequently-asked-questions

  • Vista black screen after the loading bar

    I have the problem that I am assuming that almost all users of Windows Vista have probably experiences - the black screen with the white cursor lonely after the loading bar 'Microsoft Corporation'. Here are the steps that I tried to solve the problem, but have not yet worked:

    • With the help of "last known good configuration" brings back me to the screen and the white slider
    • Go into safe mode which brings back me to the screen and the cursor
    • Activate the video mode low resolution which brings back me to the black screen and a cursor
    • Using Ctrl + SHIFT + ESC to appear during the black screen Task Manager
    • CTRL + Alt + Delete does not work on the black screen
    • I do not have access to the installation CD, as it was preinstalled on the computer

    Yes, as usual, what happened after a windows update - I really should stop waiting for something good to these updates.

    I'm under the original version of Vista Home Premium without service pack - these caused a similar problem, but at least I was able to return the system restore.

    Thank you in advance, I know how useful these forums can be.

    Yes, a new installation of Windows 7 was the way for me. Lucky he composed a back all my documents, however. Thanks for the help all. Unfortunately I have no where near more closely to solve the problem, then when I started.

  • Windows Resume Loader black screen on HP Pavilion dv4-2145 dx laptop Windows 7

    I have a HP Pavilion dv4-2145 dx laptop with Windows 7. After pressing the button "on", the logo operation windows says its "recovery" windows, but a black screen titled "Windows Resume Loader" appears with the following message:

    The last attempt to resume the system from its previous location failed. Attempt to resume again?

    With the 2 following options:

    1. continue with system summary, (which does not work and I end up with the resumption of the "Windows" followed a blank black screen...)

    2 Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu (I haven't ' truei stops because I wasn't sure what that meant)

    But I managed to go to the reviews section diagnostic systems and it seems that he pass all 5 of the test, including hard drive and memory, poster, etc. So I don't know what the problem...

    Please notify.

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    I think that in this case, you will have to choose the second option - "Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu" and see if that fixes the problem.  If all etc. documents you had open before hibernation were saved, then you should not lose anything.  If there are unsaved changes (for example if you have added to a document), the file will be to the point that his last record and you lose additional data.

    Kind regards

  • MacBook Pro 15 10 bootcamp load black screen Windows

    When I try to load windows on my computer 10, after stopping the wheel spinning, I'm left with a black screen and occasionally the cursor. I was wondering if anyone has a solution because I'm very reluctant to release zero/restore my windows partition as it was working fine before the next time I turned on the computer and other forums seem to lean toward a display problem.

  • G62 b90 - ev: black screen after Windows loading

    Hello everyone, as you can see by the title I get black screen after loading of Windows at the same time as everything else works (hard drive of fans lights and sounds). I've tried several things, I read on troubleshooting thread, memory, diagnosis, diagnosis of hard drive, delete and change put the Rams, disconnect the battery and ac and keep the power button for 30secs hurry the ac without the battery but nothing. I also tried to use a monitor with hdmi cable but I get a blue screen when I try with the monitor. Also what happens during a format so I can't even through safe mode. IM really waiting for your answers and in the hope of a solution. Thanks in advance!

    Just because you use the key F11 to restore to factory does not mean that the recovery partition itself is not altered.

    Suggest you try instead the recovery discs or take it to the shop for advanced diagnostics.

  • Windows XP Home, black screen after loading screen (seemingly unique problem)

    Hi all

    I am trying to upgrade to service pack 3 Windows XP home on my old computer from eMachines T2838 and experiences a @# *! a time to do it. This is the third time in 2 days I had to wipe my HD and re - install XP, because of some problem installing updates which has damaged the operating system.

    Here's my current situation.

    Yesterday, after the failure of the HD for the second time (computer got stuck "performing cleanup" on SP2, forced a reboot, got a restart loop after, would not load Windows) I installed XP, update to SP2, then downloaded the service pack real itself. He has installed fine and asked me to restart.  I respected that, and the computer restarted. As soon as the "Loading" screen popped up, I knew that something had gone wrong.  When I started on the desk, I was stuck in 640 x 480 w / 4 - bit color graphics mode. Could not be set. So, I thought, okay, let me reboot Windows and see if he "rediscovered" the integrated video card. Well, I restarted, and the "loading screen jumped into the appropriate color mode / resolution, so I thought that I was in the green."  Well, after that, all I get is a black screen. No message 'No signal!' or anything like that.  Even tried a few instructors that I have. Looked around online, has seen the references to "Last known good Configuration" 'safe Mode' etc etc.

    I tried all the options on the list of F8. Either she freezes at Mup.sys xxxxxx or boots up to the loading screen and then goes black after. I can hear the HDD does it's thing for a bit, so I don't know it is loading this screen "check to activate the automatic updates" which appears after SP2 is installed, but I can't.

    Use the recovery console, (did the repair option the first time after it kept restarting, Windows took 5 minutes to start an IE6 get locked every opening, so had to wipe and re-install) typed "chkdsk/p/r" and he did his thing for about 30 minutes, rebooted and still have the same problem.

    I don't know what else to do. I REALLY want to redo everything this a fourth time, only to to have screw it up once again, and I don't know how many times I can use the key I have on the back of the computer.  (Using a retail disk and an OEM key, Finder product key changer.) -A Microsoft Support Officer showed me that one. Quite handy.

    People do you have any suggestions?  I would really appreciate it.
