Satellite L505 - 14 d: my screen is black, but the computer is still running

I bought this computer in September and it worked fine except this time I had to reload the whole system because of two anti-virus programs, but I think that this has nothing to do with my problem. I've been on the PC, the other day, and all of a sudden it turned black. I wasn't doing anything unusual. When I looked at him the screen was all black, but the computer was working as he has always done. I also saw that the market and stop switch on the digital/lock pad would not react. (a green light appears when the caps lock/num pad is activated). What should I do to get this computer running again WITHOUT permanent black screen?

Hello

What happens if you press the power button / stop 4 sec long?
You see the Red Toshiba home screen?
Have you tried the external monitor or FN + F5 option?

I think you should also try the common workaround;
Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter. Wait a few hours and reconnect the two parts. Then try to turn on the unit.

  • My Z3 Xperia screen is black but the phone still works

    Hello world!

    I tried to find another question like this to help me, but I can't find it. So, I got my Sony Xperia Z3 for a month and it has always worked well, I have no problem. I never gave up. An hour ago, the screen went black, I wanted to check something on the phone. At first, I thought that the battery has failed, but it turns out that I have a lot of battery and the phone is on charger now. Then, I realized this phone works fine, it sounds when someone calls me, when there is some notifications that you can hear a noise too. I can even adjust volume. Just the screen is black all the time.

    Someone had this problem? Do you know how I can fix this problem?

    Thank you.

    Sorry to hear that but you would need to return your device to the place of purchase or contact the Xperia and have your device inspected http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

  • Satellite A500 keyboard and Touchpad freeze but the computer is still active

    Hi, I hope that some might be able to help me with this frustrating problem.

    Keyboard and mouse on my laptop have, during the last 4 months, been freezing almost randomly.

    This problem occurs only with the keyboard and notebook computer touchpad. If I use an external USB mouse, I have no problem.

    Please note that this is not all the freezing system. Once the keyb + touchpad freeze has occurred, I can always plug in a USB mouse and continue to use the computer.

    I have windows 7 64-bit.

    And what model of laptop do you have?
    Are you using the Toshiba recovery image or your own installation of the OS?

  • HP 17-g121wm: goes black screen, but the computer still running (Linux)

    I use HP 17-g121wm laptop. The screen turns off at random 2-5 minutes after the start, sometimes earlier. The computer will still run, but the screen will be black (the backlight seems to stay lit, however). Any buttons I press on, nothing makes the screen back on, so I have to press the power button to turn off the laptop and back on.

    This problem does not occur when I start in Windows, but when I boot in Linux (I tried Ubuntu and Arch linux), the problem persists.

    I tried to boot with the kernel parameter 'nomodeset' grub, but when I do that I can't enter a graphical environment, because the amdgpu driver is based on Kernel Mode Set (KMS) without nomodeset.

    I prefer to use Linux on this laptop for programming and development, preferably of Arch Linux. So, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    jreynaud1

    I run Linux distributions on my desktop PC and from your description, the problem is almost certainly the lack of video drivers, especially in the case of the AMD video chipsets.

    I'm not familiar with the Ark, but I don't know with Ubuntu, which I had problems driver AMD for several versions now, and the last, Xenial 16.04, fglrx drivers simply will NOT work because they are not supported with the new version of the kernel and will not be - as AMD is working on a new driver open source to replace fglrx.

    HP forums provides no support for Linux issues, if my suggestion is to check with the forums Linux appropriate for each distribution.

    In addition, as you use a video chipset AMD, you might find the info you need on the Phoronix forums: AMD/ATI Linux - Phoronix Forums

    Good luck

  • Screen goes black when the unit reaches a point in 3d space.

    Hello

    I've simplified a more complicated model to try to understand what is happening, but I can't for the life of understand me. My camera starts to zoom in to a way of 3d layer in the distance. Everything's fine until it reaches a certain point, then the screen goes black. The camera did not run in the layer, I don't think that the lights have something to do with it. It just goes black. Any ideas?

    The first image is when the camera starts panning. The second is when the screen goes black. Note that the camera is still quite a distance between the 3d layer.

    Screen Shot 2011-12-01 at 12.46.04 AM.pngScreen Shot 2011-12-01 at 12.46.28 AM.png

    Thank you!

    If you turn on diagrams, you'll see that your camera is not pointed at the level of the layers. I don't know why you have animation camera rotation. You have the camera facing the path, is the point of interest to market? You may experience gimball lock.

    The best way to animate a camera must do 3D null parent. Now you have a camera on a cart. Gimbal lock is not a problem, point of interest is not a problem, and it's easy.

  • On the Satellite A210-14 t LCD screen turns black randomly

    For several days, I have the problem, my lcd screen turns black all of a sudden, the 'photo' is just disappearing. but the backlight is still and the system is still running (which happens most of the time in battery mode)
    When I close the laptop, pc goes into stand-by mode and so I open the pc again and the screen works again
    But this isn't really a solution.
    What can I do? Fresh grafix drivers are installed.

    BTW:
    I use WinXP

    HM, how long do you want the machine. Maybe you should check the powersaver for battery operation parameters when the display is sharp because it can be a characteristic powersaver the screen turns off.

    If please check your powersaver settings and set the time when the screen turns off at maximum or turn it off, then check if the error appears again.

    Would appreciate the your part feedaback. :)

  • 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.
