Satellite L35D screen goes black periodically

I looked through the various discussions forum on the screens black but can't seem to find one like mine.

When its not an overheating and cutting (another problem since!) It works for the most part fine, but lately the screen empties suddenly without reason.

I have to force a shutdown.
Sometimes if I restart, the screen turns on but sometimes it won't.
I tried to plug it into a separate monitor and it works but I still have to keep forcing a stoppage which may not be good in the long term.

Once she wouldn't come at all and I did a restore of the disc but I don't want to keep this and all reloading.
The laptop was disappointing because I bought it and it was not cheap, so maybe time to replace it with a Toshiba model No.

All advice appreciated before it is abandoned.
Doesn't seem to be a problem of physical screen.
It runs on Windows 7 Edition home premium (as new)

Thank you

I found a thread in which you posted a few years ago here in the forum:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=49957

It seems that this issue could be still related to problems you had in the past.

As mentioned in the first thread, you have to update the BIOS to the latest state.
But if BIOS update day and installation of the new system (+ updating the graphics card driver) would not be useful, portable computer problems could be linked to a malfunction of the equipment.

  • Satellite A210 - screen goes black without any reason!

    I got my satellite A210-171 for a few years and a few months ago, everything was OK.
    But our when I'm working or watching a web my screen goes black and nothing seems to work?
    The only way around this is to turn off the power switch on the laptop then restart it again.

    I then get a message saying roughly...
    Computer has not closed properly OR sound closed to protect all data, then a countdown begins to re open!

    It may be OK for a few hours or maybe a day there is no limit of time on it!
    If anyone can help I would be very grateful, but please don't use of computer jargon that I don't understand

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is really hard to tell what is causing this problem. It could be a hardware malfunction or a software problem.
    But as Auma says you should test the RAM with Memtest86. It's really very easy to use and can detect modules memory defective RAM check it!

    Another question is have you installed a different display driver or updated? I ask this question because the display drivers they are not causing Toshiba sometimes of questions.
    In any case, I would recommend updated display driver and check the site Web of Toshiba for a update.

    And before moving on to an authorized service provider reinstall you Windows using the Toshiba recovery disc. So you will get back factory settings and with these settings, your laptop should work fine.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite L350 - screen goes black when I try to play

    I have a laptop Toshiba L350 Sat. Its currently running on Windows Vista. Caused by a virus, I recently had to reinstall Windows. The laptop is now free from virus.

    My problem is that when I try to play some games that I have the screen goes black and I have to do a forced restart using the power button. There are no other noise running in the background, and Ctrl alt del does not work either.

    Is or has anyone else suffered from this problem and if so how they remedy? I'll try to re-installthe drivers when I get home this morning, but I can't think of anything that could be the cause of the problem...

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    Which disc you used to reinstall Windows?

    Normally, if you use the all Toshiba Recovery disk should work fine after that. These parameters are pre-tested by Toshiba.

    In addition, you can try to clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust of fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

  • Satellite P100 - the screen goes black

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P100 and randomly, the screen goes black but the system continues to operate. I downloaded the latest drivers from toshiba, all power options the maximum support, run ccleaner and driver Sweeper to remove the old entries driver, re-installed the login screen of the mobo and nothing seems to work.

    The screen goes black sometimes when using windows but STILL turns black as soon as the ramps of gpu for example of playing a video or comparative analysis of the graphics card.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Model: Toshiba Satellite P100-PSPA6A-02NO21

    Hey,.

    > ALWAYS goes black as soon as the ramps of gpu for example of playing a video or comparative analysis of the graphics card.
    This means that the graphics card is defective

    Theoretically, it could be an overheating problem too. Higher time can also cause a black screen. You should try everything that is possible to clean your laptop using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.

    If it doesn t help it seems to be a hardware malfunction but seriously a point would be interesting: have you noticed the same thing with preinstalled OS (Vista) Toshiba?

  • Satellite L405D-11V - freezes and the screen goes black when you watch the video

    OK, so I have the Toshiba Satellite L405D-11V, I had a breakdown, basically, the computer freezes at any time and the screen would go black, with the fan and lights still ongoing, this could be at the start, or a few hours using the laptop, so I decided to ring Toshiba technology support and they arranged for my laptop to collect and be expelled for repairs.

    I was able to track repairs online via the tracking service and was able to see what they were doing to my laptop, he said that they have ordered a part, it was underway and the repairs are completed.

    However, I got the laptop back today, I turn it on, all right, I start using the cell phone that everything is fine, so I decide to watch a video on youtube, and it freezes again, so I turned off now pressed the power button, hoping he wasn't that a large, I turn back to and load the video once again it freezes and the screen goes black again, after that whenever I am watching a video or a game, it causes the computer to crash and freeze as before the repairs. So there is always a mistake, but I'm not sure what to do

    Its still under warranty, I bought the laptop from the Comet, but I really don't want to send the laptop for repairs again and find it comes back with the same fault, is it interesting sending distributed, maybe see if the comet will replace the laptop as its still less than a year to buy the laptop, or it'll just be useful to save all the hassle and buy a new laptop? If this fault happened to someone else, I could use you some help, and if someone could shed some light regarding what could be bad?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    You changed something on the configuration after you got your notebook back from repair? You update a driver, or something else?
    What operating system you use on your L405D satellite?

    To be honest it is really hard to say why it happens because technicians test to check if your laptop is running correctly.

    In my opinion you should try to update the display driver. Maybe it's the origin of the problem of s
    If this isn't the case, I recommend installing Windows from Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. These parameters are pre-tested by Toshiba and should work.

    If you still have the problem, you must contact the technicians again. I mean you could track the online repair and according to your assignment, everything worked well during repair, so in my opinion he should t be a problem to contact guys exactly.
    Explain your very detailed problem. I think that everything can be clarified then. :)

  • Satellite 3000 - X 4: screen goes black after start

    Hello

    I have a laptop of s3000 - x 4 satellite.

    swiched top upward start then the screen goes black, I can just do the display to see loading, windows
    This happens even if I can get it to boot in safe mode, or when I enter setup.
    If I'm lucky, I have a minute of commissioning until the display changes. and as soon as I restart, I'm square.

    can anyone help? If it is a component, it is easy to find and replace?
    see you soon

    Colin

    Hello

    Have you tried to connect the external display?
    If this is not the case, try it. Also check out the switching between display devices with the FN + F5 key combination
    If this does not help, I would pick up the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD supplied. Also try to improve the shape of the Tosh site graphics driver.

    But if it won't work and you can't see anything on the screen so I guess there must be something wrong with the hardware. In this case only the ASP in your country is able to help you.

  • 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:

  • Screen goes black whenever I move my Equium A200

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200, my screen goes black whenever I move the laptop, I do the screen before the screen lights up again! No idea why this happens?

  • After the waiting on my Satellite A200 screen is black

    I would like to ask for help.

    I have problem when I close the lid of my Satellite A200 1 - HV (PSAECE). Computer is going to hold and after I opened the hood, laptop seems to work but display is always black. Only way to make it useful is once again turn the unit off (by the power button) and turn it on.

    Sometimes, the same problem occurs when the computer starts. After loading Windows (XP) the screen goes black and I can't do anything. Sometimes at startup of Windows but the resolution is 640 x 480 and color depth is 16 or even 4 bits!

    I don't know if it's a hardware or driver problem. My graphics card is a GeForce GO 7300. I tried to find one driver other than that on the official website of Toshiba but I can't. This problem is quite annoying. Sometimes I have to try 3 or 4 times until my departure from the computer correctly.

    All attempts to help will be really appreciated.

  • iPhone 6 sec screen goes black

    my screen goes black.  I can access Siri who will respond after a period of latency.  This happened before the recent 9.2os updated, I let the battery go completely dead, recharged and the phone came. Precedent.

  • iPhone 6 screen goes black randomly. Hard reboot solves the problem temporarily

    Hi all

    My iPhone 6 screen goes black randomly (usually during sleep) and when it happens, the fact response to touch or no sound. I know that the phone is on because I can always call another phone and it sounds on the line, but as I said the iPhone does not ring. Hard reboot (press home + power button for a while) will not solve the problem immediately after the restart, but after some time (hours or days), it goes black again and I have to do the same thing.

    No idea why this is happening? Is it a software or a hardware problem?  I'm really curious to know how to restart the phone resolves the problem.

    I am not able to take it to the bar of the kind of these days because of my busy schedule. I wonder what they need to replace when I take it to the store.

    Please, share your ideas.

    Thank you

    Sounds like a problem of software for me, especially because it forces is a troubleshooting step software, and you say that solved the problem (of least temporarily).

    However, I still think that the Genius Bar would be a good idea. They have access to diagnoses that are not accessible by the user, who can easily identify which applications or processes are causing the problem. I think that they can also do this by phone, but I rarely call support so I am not sure.

  • Updated to firefox9 and now when I use extension of tree style tab the screen goes black, with the exception of the "window of the tab" and the part of the screen behind him

    Update firefox9. Using tree style tab extension. Everything works fine, except that my screen goes black when in 'tab window', with the exception of the window of the tab and the part of the screen behind him. Once out of the tab section everything comes back fine, but it is rather annoying. Checked homepage for the extension and have the updated version, firefox add-on page - it also says that it is compatible. Any ideas on that?

     Am realizing pages will stay on as long as I don't move the mouse,but as soon as I do move it,black goes the screen.
    

    Ok. A installed version 1.4? Manufacturers homepage. This is apparently what caused problems. Get rid of this and installed version 1.3? Since firefox add on the pages. Problems solved...
