  Hello aqua9teen1,

  Go to control panel, click Action Center. See if there are errors listed there. You may need to expand to see all questions.

  Then I'd suggest that you update your video drivers. If you have a computer that you purchased in a retail store, then you can go to the computer manufacturer and see if they have updated drivers. Or you can also go to the manufacturer of the adapter driver updates and videos.

  Please answer back with an update.

• Screen goes black and only the mouse pointer visible to the windows xp screen

  My computer has used to work without problems.  Now, when I start it upward, to the Windows XP start screen, the screen turns off and all that is visible is the mouse pointer.  I tried to start safe mode, and it does give me even the option - not even if I press F8 at startup upward.  What is the problem with my computer and what can do?

  Thanks for your answers, Dena and Jojih.

  The screen went black and all I could see was the mouse pointer.  There is no ameioration or changes on the hardware of all kinds.  I wonder if one of my employees has a virus on the computer.  I could not do in safe mode, even if I tried to press F8.  If I put in the Windows XP CD, the screen would go black after that he loaded the system files, just like at the start of Windows XP.  So I used Acronis PC Backup and Recovery and make a recovery disc and used to reformat the hard drive and then I reinstalled Windows XP.  Everything has been great to work for.

• Satellite A200 - Vista does not and only the mouse works

  I have problem with Windows Vista SP1 on A200 (PSAE6E).

  After the recovery of the DVD attached to computer system Vista laptop and running other programs sometimes not respond. Hard drive also stop working. One job of the mouse and the cursor moves on the screen, nothing else. ALT + CTRL + delete not work too only solution is hard power off by pressing and hold the switch.

  Before recovering the system everything works fine. I noticed this Vista product key does not match that of the sticker. I have not changed key and no one else do not have access to my laptop, hard drive that is encrypted by TruceCryp.
  There is no viruses or Trojans in the system (verified by Avira free antivirus and HijackThis), all updates are installed, only one material error with I noticed his first bad block on the hard disk.

  Hello!

  Have you tried an external keyboard on the laptop? Maybe the internal keyboard is not working properly and so you can not use CTRL + ALT + DELETE.
  The laptop is not completely freeze because you can move the cursor.
  In addition, what programs have you installed on your laptop? Maybe these software applications cause this problem.

  Furthermore, you reinstall Vista using the Toshiba Recovery disk or the disk of Microsoft? Because you have questions about the product key on the underside of the laptop and this key belongs to the preinstalled version of Vista. It's an OEM key and you can't use it with a disc of Microsoft.

  > only material error with I noticed his first bad block on the hard disk.
  I think you should swap the HARD drive as soon as possible. Back up your data immediately.
  And this is perhaps the reason for the problem... Who knows?  :|

  Good bye

• Satellite U400 - screen is blank and gives a beep

  Hello

  I tried to turn on my laptop and the screen is just blank, battery is fine all LEDs light up but it does not start. It beeps every 2-4 minutes.

  Some can help or advise please

  Hey,.

  Generally these codes beeps mean that a hardware malfunction has been detected if you changed something on the hardware configuration?

  If you have installed both memory modules, you must test it with the single module only. Sometimes it happens that the RAM modules are faulty then try it with a module only. Maybe it helps :)

• (Dell LCD) screen goes blank when I connect. Requires the switching on of the screen on and outside

  (Dell LCD) screen goes blank when I connect.  Requires power to the power on and off screen, at least 15 to 20 times before picture stays on.  Any suggestions? No to the problem site so don't have the model numbers.  Dell computer and about 8 years.

  Looks like your monitor is having problems sync-ing for the resolution settings that you have defined for your monitor.  When you get your screen is displayed, right-click on an empty area of your desktop-> properties-> (tab) settings.

  Then, in the 'Screen Resolution' area, try to move the cursor to the end of 'Less' and click 'apply '.  It will then try to change to this new resolution.  If your screen is empty for now, just wait about 30 seconds and it will return to the previous resolution (which can mean that you need to power cycle your monitor you have done to get it back)-otherwise accept the settings if your display looks OK.  Try to find a solution that works with your monitor.  It is also possible that your monitor is going bad.

  Hello

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
  by tapping F8 as you start several times.

  First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
  Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
  Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
  field efforts.

  2 follow the instructions which is there to install the package to update DirectX
  3. Once installed, restart your computer and try to run the game

  ===============================
  I don't know what is causing this problem but would be
  suspicious, it is related to a corrupted or obsolete
  video driver.

  Might be interesting to try to reduce your graphics
  Hardware acceleration instructions
  in the following article.

  How to put in back of graphics hardware acceleration
  http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00129_How_to_set_graphics_hardware_acceleration_back.htm
  (scroll down to: "If you are using Windows 2000 or XP")

  If they improve the question, you should look for the
  site Web of MFG. your video card
  a updated driver Win XP compatible video. Or...
  If your computer is a laptop... Search support
  site of the manufacturer of your computer.

  If you do not know the make and model of your
  Video adapter, see the documentation that
  supplied with the computer.

  Also you can find info on your video by driver
  go to Device Manager: you can launch
  By clicking Device Manager on... Start/run and
  type or copy / paste:
  devmgmt.msc
  And then press ENTER.

  Expand "Graphics cards" and right click
  the name of your graphics... then
  choose... Properties / tab pilot... FYI.

  You should find the make and model of your
  adapter display as well as the version of the driver.

  If the driver on the Web site is no longer
  current than you run...
  Download and install it. In addition, installation
  instructions that should be followed closely
  should be available on the support site.

  Once installed the new video driver... you
  can restore your full acceleration.

  Good luck...
