Qosmio G10-105: the screen is black

I was asked to look at a Qosmio G10-105 by a friend who claims that it functioned very well until one day "the screen went black.

It seems to start fine but there is absolutely no image on the screen with backlight, no and no image "Dim". The problem is that when I plug in an external display there is also no image at all however becomes the external display backlit, but that's all.

Can I assume that this is neither the inverter, backlight screen or I get no image on an external display?

Is it likely to be the graphics card? If so, is it replaceable or it is part of the motherboard?

I tried 2 external displays

Any help / ideas would be appreciated...

Thank you
Rob

> Is it likely to be the graphics card? If so, is it replaceable or it is part of the motherboard?
Hmm. It really looks like a graphics card problem
It was a good idea to connect the external monitor to check if the same problem would appear on the second screen that there is a simpler way to find out if this problem could be linked to the TFT screen or the graphics card.

The GPU chip set on the motherboard and in most cases (in your case too) the whole motherboard must be replaced :(

Unfortunately, but it looks like an expensive affair :(

  • Qosmio G10 134: the screen freezes after repair

    Hello

    Earlier my Qosmio G10 had to be repaired because of the vertical-bars-in-screen-and-broke-down-videocard-problem. They gave me a new motherboard and Nvidia Go 6600 and the problem was solved. I hoped... Because then I couldn't not to use the graphics card for more than 5 minutes.

    When I start playing a game, or so it takes 5, maybe 10 minutes in mind for my screen to freeze. Then precious is unresponsive to anything, even to the Microsoft-Magic-Combination-Ctrl-Alt-Del. very annoying to say the least... Does this sound familiar to anyone?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    I agree with the agramer. It is possible to s that you got different but better graphics card. On this page, I read that some users who repaired the laptop got a different card because the original of the delivered graphics card was off live.

    In this case, you should check your device for details of the map Manager and if necessary, you must install the right graphics card driver.

  • Toshiba Qosmio DX730 PAQ13A - no signal - the screen remains black

    When I turn on PC (all in a single DX730 PAQ13A-010005) the amber light turns white as it should. However, the screen remains black.
    If I unplug the connection, and then reconnect it, a message appears on the screen indicating 'PC', it then changes briefly to display the message no Signal.

    All advice appreciated.

    Must be the hardware problem.

    It seems that no signal can be picked up by the monitor...
    Probably the mother or any other element connected to the motherboard is defective...

    I guess its time to contact a technician if you want to solve this...

  • How can I save by iPad 3 when the screen is black and nothing appears?

    How can I save my iPad in ITunes or iCloud 3 when the screen is black and nothing appears?

    Is the empty screen, because just the screen is broken, or is the iPad just dead? Have you tried a soft-reset/reboot it?

    At least you can see what you touch on the screen of the iPad, you cannot force a backup to iCloud.

    If the iPad still works and is connected to wifi, a backup should automatically happen (if iCloud backups are enabled) if it is connected and the locked screen.

  • MacBook Pro 2015 turns on but the screen remains black...

    Hello

    Today, I tried to turn on my MacBook Pro, but my screen stays black. When I press the caps lock button, it turns green which I guess means he lit. I've also heard the startup chime it generally makes when you turn on. I already tried to turn it on and off several times and reset the SMC and the LANDAU... The screen is always black.

    Could someone help me please?

    Also a few minutes ago the fan has started to make noise in the macbook...

    But the screen remains black.

    Thank you

    Hi shaynidw,

    From your description, it seems that your MacBook Pro is powered, as soon as you hear the startup chime and see the light on the keyboard.  Thus, it seems that the problem may be with your screen or the video card.

    On the screens you see when you start your Mac

    Power on

    When you turn on your Mac, display is off (black) and you hear a startup chime. Your Mac Initializes his BootROM and memory (RAM live). It then performs a power - on that self test (POST) and a test of BootROM. If you hear beeps or chimes at this stage, this indicates a possible hardware problem and start stops. If you add memory to your Mac, check that it is installed correctly.

    White screen

    After that only walking self-test is completed, your Mac sends a video signal to your connected screens. The screen may appear black or grey at this point in the boot sequence and backlight of the screen should light up. If you do not see the image appears on your screen after a few moments, try increasing the brightness of your screen. If you use an external monitor, make sure it is properly connected and turned on.

    shaynidw, if set up the brightness of your screen does not help, you have an external display (computer screen or TV) that you can attach to your MacBook Pro to test?

    In addition, you can try to start your computer in safe mode to see if you get different results.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning

    If the problem persists, you may need to take your computer to an Apple Store or service provider authorized Apple , so they can inspect the video card and cables to isolate the problem.

    Take care.

  • iMac 27 "5K retina 3.5 ghz has left half of the screen is black right is normal

    My iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014) 3.5 GHz Intel Core i5 did twice the same. The left half of the screen is black. All the right side works to the login screen.

    Someone at - it ideas? The last time this happened my hard drive has failed.

    I called AppleCare, they said I should have donee that reset a SMC and rest of the STROLLER instead of restarting it. (I'm not convinced that the man knew what he was saying because the screen was frozen at the connection). He said I should wipe my hard drive and reinstall the OS. Then if it happens again, I could call for help.

    The computer has been running a backup time machine during this period. I heard him running. The last time this happened my hard drive has failed.

    You have any ideas?

    John,

    Have you tried all troubleshooting such as resetting the PRAM or the performance of the Diagnostics of Apple? If this isn't the case, that is where I would start. If you get anywhere with either of the people, then you probably have a hardware problem that leads to a repair. If you bought AppleCare and the computer is still covered, then call them.

  • IPhone 6 dropped, the screen goes black, but returns to normal

    I dropped my iphone 6, initially, the screen was black, but everyting worked perfectly I could even take pictures. I put on charger and tapped on the back of the iphone and the screen comes alive and everything was normal, nothing strange occurred during use, but after blocking and leaving intact, the black screen again to open. I had to put it in the charger and the tap at the back as before. Now I can't leave my iphone intact or the screen will become black again. I need help please! Is there a solution for this or would I need to take it to a shop to fix it?

    Hardware problems should be diagnosed at the Apple Store, or an authorized service provider.

    My guess would be that you probably have a damaged connection or in bulk as a result of the fall. That is why she helps when you press back.

    Backup your phone to iCloud and iTunes (encrypted) while you still can.

  • Satellite U920T - the screen goes black when you drag the keyboard

    This morning, I turned on my U920T-10 days but the screen remained black.

    At first, I thought the screen was broken, but in mode 'Tablet', the screen became. Now when I slide the keyboard the screen goes black again.

    How can this problem be solved?

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a bad connection somewhere between the screen and the motherboard.
    This could be possible reason for failure to display while sliding in and out.

    I guess this can be resolved easily and I think that it is a job for a technician (authorized service provider). I recommend you contact the service technician in your country to get the laptop fixed. I hope that the warranty is still valid in order to repair for free.

    I hope that this can be corrected. I keep fingers crossed.

  • Satellite C660-1J2 - the screen goes black for a second

    Hey everybody.

    I recently changed my HARD drive and did a reinstall fresh, as previous was damaged. What is happening now is that whenever I have connect or disconnect the cable the screen goes black for a second. There is no real consequence of this, I'd rather just if there was an option to make it happen.

    Then, give a shout someone if you know how to deal with this.

    Hello

    > I have recently changed my HARD drive and did a reinstall of fees
    You have installed Windows from Toshiba normal Microsoft Windows disk or recovery disk?

    To me it sounds like that, you forgot to install the display driver. Also check the Manager of devices for the yellow exclamation points or unknown devices.
    Make sure that correct display driver is installed. You can download the latest version of Toshiba's official website:

  • Satego P100 - the screen goes black

    Hello

    If I turn on my laptop there is no problem. After maybe 5 minutes, the screen goes black and after a few minutes, he just a blue screen. Restarting the laptop. But now I don't have lines on the screen for the display of the BIOS and the power of Windows screen but during the operation. If the laptop is turned on after minutes the same, it goes black and then blue screen.

    BIOS and reinstalled system. nothing happens. I think that BIOS is flawed, because there are lines on the screen when I turn on the laptop again.
    If I leave the laptop for 15 minutes off the coast, it starts normally but aftern maybe 5 minutes it starts again with blue screen and other funny stuff.

    Now - what is someone the problem and a solution?
    I think the BIOS is a virus that destroyed. But I think that on a laptop, it is not possible to change only the BIOS. Because the update of it was ok but the problem remains.

    Thx for the answers and cordially

    I put t think the BIOS is defective. There must be another problem. All that you have done is just. Update the BIOS and the clean OS install are only option that you can do about it.

    Please contact the nearest authorized maintainer and let the technician to check your laptop. Let them to test the operation of the equipment using the service tools.

    Try this;

    The next day, I connected battery and adapter A\c and the laptop worked again
