• Satellite A105-S361: screen becomes dark gray with gray fine lines

  I have a new laptop Satellite A105-S361 and seem to have display problems. My screen turns dark gray (with fine gray lines) while I use my laptop. This normally happens after using my laptop for 5 minutes or up to 30 minutes. When I restart my computer, I get the Toshiba start screen, and then it works very well for another five minutes before aging again.
  I tried to connect to an external monitor and it works fine.

  I also installed a new BIOS, but I still have the same problem.

  Any suggestions?

  Hi, Ahmed.

  It sounds like a problem with your inverter FL. This is the device that provides lighting for your LCD screen. The fact that you can use an external monitor shows that there is not a problem with your graphics card.

  Fortunateky the FL inverter is not an expensive component and is quite easy to change then I suggest that you only contact your closest partner of Serviec allowed to check your laptop.

  Kind regards

  My screen is darker than usual.  How can I brighten it.

  If you have a laptop/netbook computer, try your power settings.

  Click Start or press the Windows key and type power but do not hit . Click Power Optionss of the section of the Control Panel in the list above.

  

  You can adjust your screen brightness using the slider to the center of the window Power Options nottom. Closing the window will keep your new settings.

• More than half of my screen went dark on my old monitor?

  Original title; Display problem

  The monitor CRT Samsung regarded 56v, old enough, but up to 2 days back worked perfect. Now, the screen is dark on one side (right side and Center too) while most left is normal, the dark side covers almost 70% of the screen. That's the problem with the monitor, or anything else on the CPU Cabinet? Please let me know how to solve this problem.

  The position of the screen has been changed or whatever it is was recently been placed near him, say a speaker?

  Try another monitor and try the monitor on another computer. This will restrict the cause of a failure of the computer video or monitor. The symptom points quite strongly to the fault of the monitor. If so, the only remedy will be repair or replacement.

• BlackBerry 8330 Smartphone screen is dark & blink red (4blinks)

  My 8330 screen is dark and I'm lit or flashing red signal.  I tried pulling the battery to reset and does not help.  Can anyone offer any suggestions?

  Thank you

  If your BlackBerry is still under tension turned off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life may be the flashing red indicator light in the upper corner. Nothing seems to wake and Desktop Manager does not recognize that a device is connected.

  (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
  http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
  (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

  'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

  (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
  (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
  (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Press Next and finish, and that you are well on your way to get your Blackberry to life. Just unplug and let the process finish completely.

  NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.
  http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
  Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

• Dell Latitude 10 ST2: Screen very dark after the Windows Update 8.1 & gameplay of Diablo 2

  Hello community,

  I just got a new Latitude 10 ST2, and I really appreciated the help until after that I updated for Windows 8.1 and played some Diablo 2. For some reason, my brightness is now always very low, regardless of whether the Adaptive brightness in my power management setting is enabled or disabled. I can manually change the brightness, but it has very little effect. It seems that the maximum brightness is really low for a reason any.

  I don't know if Diablo 2 has nothing to do with this problem, but I though that I would include it here because it uses very outdated graphics techniques that seem not very compatible with Windows 8.1. I had to change the compatibility settings of the game executable for Windows XP Service Pack 2, force them to run with 16-bit colors and also to disable the composition of the bureau. After closing the game, icons on the desktop still seemed a little wide (they looked rather 16-bit color and had some weird artifacts) and I had to restart the tablet to correct. After the reboot of the Tablet, the desktop icons were back to normal, but my light issues began to arrive.

  My first attempt at solving this problem was in the shape of the tablet. I used my USB stick that has the factory settings on it to format the Tablet and reinstall Windows 8. The process was a success, and I had no problem of brightness either. However, after the update to Windows 8.1, then by restarting the Tablet, my issue with the brightness came back.

  My second attempt was to try to update my drivers. I ran the auto updater provided with the Tablet, and it updated my BIOS. Unfortunately, it has not fixed the problem at all. Then, I took a look in the BIOS and found levels of brightness in the video section. The parameters are the following:

  Brightness on battery: 7
  Brightness of AC: 15

  I've tried corresponding to the brightness of the battery at 15, but it has no effect. The light problems don't occur that the Tablet is connected to a power outlet or not, I wasn't really that surprised that it didn't work. A maximum brightness of 15 is normal? (what is a percentage?) I don't want to change these settings without knowing exactly what they represent to avoid damage.

  My third attempt has updated the chipset drivers which includes the video driver. I installed the chipset driver and suddenly after that the screen went black a few times during the installation of the brightness has been completely restored and colors looked nice and bright again. However, when I rebooted the Tablet I found that the problems of brightness was back. Very rarely when I restart the Tablet, the brightness is normal again, but it is super rare. A subsequent reboot simply results in brightness problems return immediately.

  A few other things worth noting that come with the light problems:
  -All color gradients are not smooth. You can very clearly see the differences in brightness when a picture goes to a light color to a dark like a lot of buttons in Windows 8 start menu. It reminds me a lot of 16-bit color;
  -Whenever I try to change the display settings in the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel, nothing happens. No matter how much I fiddle with the brightness, contrast or gamma, nothing changes, even after you apply the settings.
  -Diagnostic in the BIOS tests said that everything is OK;
  -The complete diagnosis provided by the PC Dell Diagnostics program showed that each test passed successfully.

  I really hope that someone can help me with this problem. The screen is also very dark, it makes it quite difficult to use tablet. Thank you!

  Kind regards

  StevenD91

  Thanks for the reply! After much trial and error, I discovered that my graphics driver has been be corrupted by AVG 2014 somehow. After yet another format and reinstall of Windows 8, but without AVG 2014 this time, everything works great! : D

• Why is my screen very dark?

  my screen is very dark and it is a new computer using Windows 10. The screen was very bright and it is now difficult to read. The system has had a lot of problems earlier. I turned off the computer for about an hour and a half and now it is gray.

  This looks like a problem with the function of Adaptive brightness of Windows 10.

  I suggest to go in:

  1. Parameters
  2. Power options
  3. Change Plan settings
  4. Change advanced power settings
  5. Scroll down to view
  6. Select "enable adaptive brightness.
  7. pass the two selections on 'OFF '.

  That being said, please keep in mind that there is a support forum for Mozilla Firefox, not Microsoft Windows, we help you gladly your questions of Firefox but issues relating to associated Microsoft products really apply to Microsoft Support or community Microsoft Forums.

  I hope this fixed your issue, if it has changed then please your "Resolved" issue, so that we know that it has helped.

• Why my screen is dark since my update earlier today?

  Launched the program after an update on 14-10-14 and the screen is black except where the banner should be in the upper part. I tried to uninstall and reload, but got the same result.

  Could you try starting Firefox in Safe Mode? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  With completely closed Firefox, you can hold the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

  Any difference?

  If Firefox is visible, go ahead and disable the use of Firefox hardware acceleration as a workaround for incompatibility of graphics software possible driver card.

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

  In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

  This will indeed be the next time you go out and you launch Firefox upward.

• Satellite Pro M40: screen remains dark until Windows has fully loaded

  Hello to all here.
  I have a problem with my laptop. My laptop is a Satellite Pro M40.

  When I turn on my laptop, I found the backlight won't come... the screen will stay dark until it has fully loaded into Windows. I've checked all my food, and there all fine options. Even if I can get the Bios screen its impossible to read the txt because without backlight. I tried to hold the Fn & F7... joy of Noy.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Richard

  Hello Richard

  I didn't see anything like that before and I'm a bit confused why you can't see the BIOS settings, but running the OS. Use of the FN + F7 key combination won't help because this option only works on Windows and not on the level of the BACK.

  If possible try to plug the external monitor and test again. In any case I put t think you can fix it yourself. Try please contact Toshiba authorized partner in your country. Explain the situation and see what they say.

  If you discover that something please let us know. It will be really interesting to know why this happen.

• Portege R700 internal to screen very dark but can use the external monitor

  Hi guys,.

  just had a question about my Toshiba Portege R700 as the screen went white and I couldn't see the screen or sometimes I could and it was very dark!

  However, the laptop could start up as normal and I could use it normally through an external display!

  Subsequently, I replaced the screen and it started working again (happy days)!
  However, a few weeks down the line the same problem again apparently did screen dies.

  I take off again and disconnect and reconnect the screen just to see if that would solve the problem and he did, back and working again. I even tried the old screen I swapped and that works too!
  So I paid £140 + for a new screen that I didn't need, my question is what is the problem?

  Could not find anything else on this topic so would appreciate any help thanks

  Hello

  It is difficult to say what might be wrong here usually black screen can be related to a faulty FL inverter.
  But laptop computer s display supports a backlight Led FL inverter should not be a problem here
  Maybe some loose contacts caused this

• Portege R500-10J: not possible to watch movies - colors screen too dark

  Hello!

  I recently bought a Portege R500-10J and have a pretty bad problem - I can not watch every movie (DVD or *.avi or anyone else) here. All media are invisible on the screen. Its too dark and some colors are recorded.

  I have no problem with all office applications, or browsing the internet, the colors are perfect for screen 12.1 inch, but using any application media is almost impossible.

  Didn't help not change any settings. The colors are extremely poor. I have not install anything but this was while the computer is first.

  Anyone know - is it a hardware problem (video card) or software (drivers, codecs, sth else), or it is a normal phenomenon?

  Hope it can be fixed. This laptop is supposed to be used for watching movies on a trip...

  To be honest, it is not easy to understand your problem. I guess you use battery power while traveling. In this case, intelligence tool will probably switch to energy saving mode. In this case, the display brightness will increase at a lower level.

  You can set it to the highest level by using the FN + F7 key combination. Be sure that the screen is in the right direction (90 degrees from your eyes).

• Satellite L850-1JH - dead, screen too dark

  Hi all.

  I had a problem with this laptop for the last four weeks.

  One day worked, it normally stops and the next day when I power the screen was dead.

  The fan stands up and lights, caps and numlock function, but not picture.

  There are also 3 days ago, I noticed that if the screen is tilted I can actually see the Toshiba logo at boot and then a few icons on windows 8.

  For what I found online that this laptop doesn't have a UPS because she is LED which requires current DC which is quite a new thing on laptops, I think.

  One thing which I use to to check if there was any kind of output image has been to connect the laptop to the tv, but for some reason, that no picture is via vga or hdmi port.

  That being said I'm reluctant about the fault being the monitor. One thing I'm positive, I can certainly see very dark and with the monitor image tilted slightly.

  Someone had a same or similar problem?

  See you soon.

  I ve never been faced with this problem on my Toshi and cannot say for sure what the problem is here, but my opinion is that you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
  I assume that the warranty is still valid for repair, if necessary, will be free of charge.
