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

Ross

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

  • HP Pavilion dv6 - black screen on startup, but works using the secondary monitor?

    I use a Pavilion dv6 WV815AV, and I used it for 3 years now.

    I tried to start the computer and the fan and lights are lit, but not the monitor.  I tried to plug in my high school, and it's that now treats as if it were the only screen.  I had problems in the past of a few times where I would get past the HP logo, and then there would be a substantial delay where the screen remains black but be illuminated, but most of the time that he would go to the screen connection, and if not, a simple reboot managed to solve the problem.

    Thoughts on how should I solve it?

  • Portege R600 - how to use the external monitor on the docking automatically

    Hi - I just got a new Portege; R600-102. It's a great machine - very light and fast.

    I connect to a Slim port replicator to the office and I wish I could anchor and automatically use the external monitor without opening the laptop. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do it? This process has worked well on my recently retired Dell X 300.

    More precisely:
    # I have the laptop closed Portégé and standby mode
    # I anchor in the Slim Port Replicator (SPR)
    # I press the button 'on' on the SPR
    # I see the message "recovery windows" and the bars of the countdown on the external monitor. (So I know it's connected and you can see the external monitor)
    # The laptop turns on but use the laptop screen (private) LCD
    # I have to open it and manually tell it 'out to watch.
    What can be automatically?

    Thanks for the tips.

  • Unable to get the maximum screen resolution when you use the external monitor

    Hello

    I use Windows 8 on laptop ASUS K55A. I use an external monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 2233BW). Everything works fine except that I do not get the maximum resolution on the external display. The only way I see a sort of an overview of the good resolution is when I choose "extend these screens", but it's very uncomfortable when there's always one screen, I don't actually see.
    How can I increase the resolution of the screen on the external screen? (now, it's on 'show desktop only on 2')
    Thank you!
    I use Windows 8 on laptop ASUS K55A.

    So first a Bing search finds that ASUS K55A probably has the chip Intel HD 4000

    Then,

    https://communities.Intel.com/thread/30360

    (BING search engine for)
    Two monitors specifications Intel HD Graphics 4000

    )

    Graphics card Intel doesn't support double bond, so 1920 x 1200 is the maximum for DVI and HDMI, 2560 x 1440 is only possible with a display port. This is indicated in each product page.

  • Portege M800-106 - bad quality by using the external monitor

    I use an external monitor LG Flatron L1811S on my Portege M800 and find that the image is not rock solid when I use the display on my desktop or screen of the M800.
    It is particularly visible on the big patches of color block where I can see shimmering light. I noticed that it's especially bad if I recently reconnected the laptop to the network after using on battery power until the battery is fully charged.

    This makes me think that the PSU interferes with the VGA output?
    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    To be honest I m more important lack of information in your ad.
    Are you using the native resolution - 1280 x 1024 / 75 Hz on screen?

  • Portege R700 with docking station may not automatically switch to the external display

    Hello!

    In the past, we bought a lot of A600, R500, S10, and always a docking station for every laptop here at Desjardins, we bought.

    Now we have a little problem with the new R700 model: PT318C - 00G 001,
    We bought 30 of them.

    WHY when we put in the tie-down (with the nearby screen) it can display automatically to the external display no/switch? (in this case a 22inc LCD)
    It is connect with the HDMI/DVI cable. And when we get the display by sliding in the graph of intel and media panel (V 6.14.10.5258), after a reboot of the docking, the screen is all buzzy... sometimes both screen are dark, and we must use a combination of keys to move.
    It's really not easy to use for our users...

    With the old model as the A600 or S10, all have always worked well, if we are on the dock, the pop screen directly on the external LCD, so I stopped him, ondock it and start up of all is well on the screen of the laptop.

    We are on Windows XP Pro SP3.

    I tried the utility Toshiba display device change and expansion Mobile from Toshiba. are not clear...

    Thanks for your help.

    Have you installed a version of vanilla from Windows? Or XP has been installed from the Toshiba Recovery Disc?
    Maybe you are missing several key structural factors (common modules for example). Also make sure that you use the drivers to display on the Toshiba site.

    Also try a BIOS update (v1.70 is the last one I think).

    Hmm, I think that's not possible, but have you tried to press FN + F5 several times?

    The monitor CRT, external display and if only that is available, then you could try to choose this.

    Otherwise, you can close the lid if you do not use the internal monitor

  • How auto turn off the screen of the laptop when you use the external monitor?

    I don't wan turn on laptop screen and my external monitor at the same time. So is it possible to do automatic screen of my laptop to turn off as soon as I plug my external monitor to my laptop vga cable (without pressing Fn + F2 keys)?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    I don't know if it's possible, but you could try to go into display settings and set an external because it is main if possible display and then disable the laptop with Fn + F2 but idk if it will remain inactive if you portable computer power, then on again :/

    Update: how to do this, right-click on the screen area and select the screen resolution while having the connected external display then of you will find a drop down a 3rd or a 4th do not remember but inside, you'll find stuff like show desktop on the screen 1 or 2 to find out what your external display screen number is and apply it to this form then computer laptop screen should turn black as it is turned off and you will see desktop area is on external display so I hope that this has resolved your request.

    PS don't forget to press Bravo if it helped

  • can't see time capsule, but can use the wifi and mount

    I have a 5th Gen (A1470) Time Capsule on our network. The WAN ethernet port is connected to a router. The TC has a static IP address, Wifi is enabled (on the TC) and router mode (bridged).

    I have hard reset the Time Capsule and reconfigured as above before you perform backups on all devices.

    We have two iMacs, two MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro (2009) backup fine both via ethernet (via a router and also directly in the transport CANADA ports) and connections Wifi of TC. One of the iMac running Yosemite the rest are El Capitan.

    However, I have an iMac on the WiFi network that cannot find the TC in the Time Machine or the Airport utility preferences. However, it can join the network Wifi of TC and attach it using the Finder. I've also disabled Wifi and iMac directly connected to an ethernet port on the TC, but he can't find it in the Time Machine or the Airport utility preferences.

    I followed the instructions from LaPastenague to Re: utility Airport can't find Time Capsule. I also reset the PRAM and SMC. No luck.

    The iMac is a 2011 model.

    I have an iMac on the WiFi network that cannot find the TC in the Time Machine or the Airport utility preferences. However, it can join the network Wifi of TC and attach it using the Finder. I've also disabled Wifi and iMac directly connected to an ethernet port on the TC, but he can't find it in the Time Machine or the Airport utility preferences.

    Just to check... what operating system is this iMac?

    You have ipv6 local link only the value... This is important.

    Make sure your network is running DHCP and DNS address is the same as the other computers.

    Make sure that the computer name is short, without spaces and pure alphanumeric characters.

    No luck, it's time to do a reset of the TM.

    Pondini instructions still work.

    I would remove plist Time Machine and redo the configuration... you don't lose the current backup... you may even do this...

    A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/A4.html

    Honestly if that don't fix it... it is time to download and use Carbon Copy Cloner... because the TM became too difficult...

    Depending on what operating system you are on. TM has a version of command line... TMutils.

    I would like to confirm Apple it have not eliminated.

    I rarely use... I think that if it does not work via the installation of normal preferences... then it became time to use CCC which is what I do. Or run them both so I don't have a good backup.

    If you use firefox, I can't use my up arrow of the page or click on the upper part of the scroll bar to make it move. Can I use the middle and the bottom of the bar.

    What happens if you connect the monitor directly to the laptop without docking station? It work?

    In addition, I would try to update the display driver and BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:

  • Satellite L10 screen very dark after disassembly

    Hi all

    I took my Satellite L10 part to swap on the plastic dessu for a damaged joint.
    Now is superb, but something was wrong as the screen is not be enlightened now.

    Anyone have any suggestions what else could be?

    If I look at the screen to light, I can see the desktop, I bought a new UPS thinking that was the problem but it has not fixed it :(

    Maybe a second faulty inverter? I checked all connections etc...

    Thanks in advance!

    Rich

    Hello

    For me, this looks like the inverter issue.
    If you see the desktop and the image appears as behind a thick mist, then in most cases this problem is related to the inverter FL.

    I put t know if the inverter is faulty or if you have connected all the bad parts
    The two may be possible, and so I recommend you to speak with a local laptop technician.
    In your case, that the old parts must be checked first, before buying a new FL inverter, cable, etc.

    See you soon

  • Portege Z830: I want to disable internal LCD and use only the external monitor

    I have a Toshiba Portege z830.
    I use my laptop in "Extended desktop", mode with an external monitor, which is the main display.
    In this mode, the two screens are still on, but I want the built-in LCD screen to be opened only when I use it.

    Is this possible?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    In my opinion, this is not possible.
    In extended mode, you use and display internal but extended and the long part is visible on the external monitor.
    In such a case its any that your external monitor is set as main display.

    If you want to use an external monitor only, you can only export the video signal on external monitor by pressing FN + F5

    My laptop just screen does not display anything (like when the computer is turned off), but when I connect the external monitor, then the desktop is displayed on this screen. I tried to recover the laptop using the recovery disk and it worked again, but today, it stopped working again.

    Again, I must plug the external monitor, and after I tried to restart, I continue to pressing F8 but the startup mode is not come, the noise of when you press a button for too long beeps, however, the monitor of the laptop working again.

    How can I solve this problem?

    What do you do? You want to recover the laptop?
    If Yes, you n press any F8 but you will need to boot from the recovery CD by pressing the C key immediately after starting the laptop.

    But this question seems that you have accidentally switched to external display.
    I recommend checking the Fn + F5 option. This combination allow you to switch between the display and the external monitor.
