Satellite A500 - screen suddenly goes black with a continuous noise

I have a Satellite A500 age of 2 months - so I'm working on it, screen goes black and there is a continuous noise until I have shut it down manually. What happened a couple of times. No error message.

I just know that if anyone had this problem or knows what it is before you contact the retailer or Toshiba, if this is the best route to go.

Thank you

Hello

I also own a500 but isn't a problem like yours. I got a blue screen and stop message driver responding. Have you tried to reset to factory settings (F8)? also try to update a graphics driver:

http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/197.16/197.16_notebook_winvista_win7_64bit_international _ whql.exe

It is not the page of the Toshiba driver from nvidia.com. I installed it a month ago and given that everything works great. I don't know if this can help, but try.

  • Satellite A500 - screen is completely black

    I got my laptop Satellite A500 for about 4 months and already there is a problem with it.

    After that I had played a few MMO on it for a while so I decided to power out of the night. The next day I started my A500 and there was a completely gray screen and I waited for at least half an hour before holding the power button for 6 seconds just to restart, so when my A500 started to the top of the screen was completely black, but the power LED light was off, but the only lights which were the key commands on the Panel next to the screen and the power light to indicate that it carried out.

    After several tries, the problem had been held, is anyway to fix this?

    Hi mate,

    Have you plugged an external monitor? I mean without it it's hard to say what causes this problem, but I guess that he associated material s. So if the external proceedings, I think that only the internal display is the cause maybe the FL inverter?

    Anyway, in both cases you need assistance from an authorized service provider. Guys can check your laptop and fix it for you. :)

  • iPhone 6 my screen is all black with white lightning

    The screen is all black with white flashes when I turn it on. Is it a broken screen / digitizer or would it be a hardware problem? This also happened to me a months I did a factory reset.

    Your phone has a serious problem. You can try to reboot (hold home and power at the same time for about 10-30 seconds buttons), but if that does not work, your hardware is probably fried. Make an appointment at your nearest Apple Store Genius Bar for confirmation.

  • Re: Satellite L500-19 X - screen keeps going black

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L500 - 19 X and continues to go to the black screen.

    When you start the computer it flashes briefly until start / Boot screen properly before going black right now. Sometimes, the image is displayed correctly for 3 or 4 minutes before also black.

    If you hold down / tilt the screen under a strong light you can see a preview of the ghost of what should be displayed and if you connect an external monitor to the external monitor works fine and you can see a black ghost of what is on the external monitor on the laptop screen.

    I tried to reinstall the drivers, but it had no effect.

    Do you think I should replace the screen inverter Board or just reconnect the connectors screen?

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    Hello

    First to solve this problem, you must disassemble the laptop.
    I put t know exactly the procedure step by step for the L500 series but this procedure isn't very easy disassembly and you could damage other parts.

    Back to the question.
    It seems that the graphics card is OK and the problem is with lighting.
    Satellite L500 was equipped with a FL inverter Board and LCD joint (no backlight).
    The FL inverter controls the level of backlight screen s and I think that in your case, this part is defective.
    To resolve this problem, he needed to remove and replace the s FL inverter.

  • Satellite A300 power suddenly goes out during the race for hours

    Dear users of the Forum,

    I am facing a strange problem in operation.
    My laptop Satellite A300 is suddenly down power during the race for hours.
    It is auto off not exactly. Not the way windows stop, is rather like strength to off (as when I press on & power button to stop force).

    This happens automatically, starting again, the screen saying "windows does not stop properly, start windows normally" is apperanig.

    I suspected virus infection, I tried full scan with nod 32, essential microsoft, kaspesky - 1 by 1 (previous uninstall and install the new), but all the antivirus intremediately scan stopped due to this power off.

    Watch movie also stopped in the Middle, attempted to convert the movie file format also was arrested several times because of this problem of automatic disconnection.

    I tried to run only on the power (remove battery) and got the same result.

    can anyone identify the problem? can you please give me the solution?

    Hello

    I put t think it is s virus.
    En me it looks like overheating. Eventually the high internal temperature requires the laptop to close. This is done automatically to prevent the equipment from damage
    I'm not quite sure what could cause this exactly, but in most cases the dust inside the fans affects cooling performance and lead to a temperature higher than m.

    Higher temperatures could affect the RAM modules too, and perhaps that is the reason why some applications don't work properly.

    What to say; try to clean the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air and check out how the laptop would proceed

  • Acer Aspire V5 - screen keeps going black - and the PC is not asleep

    Hello Acer community

    I experienced a few problems recently with my Acer Aspire V5, I made a return to factory settings (full erase).

    I came home today and maintaining the current black screen, even if the computer is not asleep.  I move the mouse and I see the office, but then after less than a second, it goes black again.

    There is no applied screensaver.  It's probably user error, but someone else knows this before and if so, how can I fix without having to go to the repair shop.

    Thanks in advance

    Just in case someone else has the same problem, a few reboots and an update seem to have solved the problem.

    I have a Sony KDF - E55A20 LCD TV. He will play for 30 seconds then the TV goes black, and the projection lamp turns off, sound and image of loser. In addition to 30 seconds the TV will go back on, picture and sound, with the projection light will come back on. This process goes on and on, for 30 seconds, 30 seconds, and so on and so forth. Is my problem the lamp of projection or something making the projection lamp go out?  The lamp does blink.

    I also have a Sony KF-50WE610.  After that warm-up screen will be partially or entirely green, fuzzy television images, back to normal and then on and off the green. I replaced the projection lamp but the problem persists.

    Thank you

    Hi Malek_1,

    This happened to me also on Satellite A300. The reason is because my laptop was overheating and so I decided to clean using compressed air stream. It's pretty easy because that's why it s not necessary to disassemble the laptop and it blows the dust from the cooling fans.

    In addition, in Windows power management, you can choose between different methods of cooling. I use the maximum performance mode.

    You can check it on the Toshiba site in the specifications of the laptop if it s equipped ;) 2nd HARD drive

    But I checked the Toshiba Web site for you, and it seems that Satellite A500 isn't equipped with the 2nd HARD drive.
