• Satellite P200D-139 screen with horizontal lines

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P200D-139 and the screen no longer works.
  It turns on but the screen is made up of vertical lines, which slowly fade into a black screen.

  I tried on an external monitor and it worked fine, (so probably cannot be a defective/motherboard graphics card). So, I thought that it was likely to be the inverter or the screen itself.
  After trying a new inverter without success, I bought another second hand screen.

  However, the new screen is exactly the same problem with horizontal lines display.
  Sometimes, I catch a partial glimpse of a Vista screensaver for a fraction of a second, but then back to black. I m not a technophobe, so any info would be much appreciated.

  Please help, as he leads me into the wall!

  > I tried on an external monitor and it worked fine, (so probably cannot be a defective/motherboard graphics card). So, I thought that it was likely to be the inverter or the screen itself.

  Right. I think that the problem is related to the display

  > However, the new screen has exactly the same problem with horizontal lines display.
  Well, it might be possible that the second screen is faulty, too that if you bought this as part of the second hand then it might be possible that you bought a screen that is not working properly.

  What to say; It of difficult to say what you should do next. Buy a new screen and check it again? Well, I think that I would visit the next computer repair store and ask for verification of the display.
  I think it's the best solution in your case

• Satellite a200-1sv screen remains black at startup in Vista

  Hello

  We have a problem with Toshiba Satellite A200-1sv my girlfriend: when we started, most of the time, the screen remains black, while the computer starts: after awhile, we can hear the sound of windows (vista).

  In addition, if connect us another screen of the computer, it displays the scheduled start screen. In order to use the computer, it must launch a few times... The support guy where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we cannot do something".

  Can we do something?

  Thanks in advance,
  Ju

  I have to smile to read this message
  Mainly, this statement is funny;
  > The support guys where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we can't do something."

  I think that this laptop has been delivered with the Vista operating system. So why the guy said that the laptop is not compatible with Vista?  :| …. that's nonsense.

  First the A200-1SV belongs to the PSAE6E series and it s fully Vista capable.
  Secondly, like you say the external screen displays home Toshiba screen and so I guess that's just a matter of adjustment.
  What you can do is to use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between display devices.

  If it doesn't help to try to put the laptop back to the factory settings using the Toshiba Recovery CD!
  In this case, the new OS, driver and tools will be installed and then everything should work fine.

  Good bye

  Hi Stephanew,
  as I recall it has an ati graphics card...

  but try this to get your machine to work:

  -pull out the hard drive to protect your data (Let's hope that there is no damage yet...)
  -take out the battery and try to start only with the power adapter > shoukld you see the toshiba on-screen logo > failure other components can be 'guilty '...

  -attach an external monitor to your computer and check if there is a visible image > no image at all?
  -check the memory, for this purpose, remove the memory and test if the satellite "buddies" > heard some of this? Yes?

  iasume the grafics card disappeared... see your certified partner...
  Let us know if this helped you.

• Matte screen on Satellite P200D-139

  My father has a laptop Toshiba Satellite P200D-139 and today a shot then screen is just gone dark.

  When the power is off and you start the laptop, the screen is very bright as it should, but after about 30 seconds, the screen becomes dull, as if the brightness has been lowered.

  Now when I close the lid and put it to sleep then open it again and then get out of standby, the monitor remains dull. The only way he'll light is by cutting off the power completely and turn it on again but it goes back dull after about 30 seconds.

  The laptop is still running from the charger the battery was totally turned off and does not charge for a year now.

  I tried to update the drivers and allsorts but can t fix it.

  Anyone know what could be the problem?

  > When the power is cut off and you start the laptop, the screen is very bright as it should, but after about 30 seconds, the screen becomes dull, as if the brightness has been lowered.
  If I understand you right so that you see Toshiba welcome screen everything is OK, but when Windows loading problem, right?
  Have you noticed the same thing if you start the laptop in safe mode?
  Have you tried to reinstall the display driver?

  Either way, what operating system is preinstalled on this machine?

• Satellite P200D-139 - blank screen suddenly and now empty start

  Therefore, given a laptop to take a look at, now the problem she has is that she played Sims one night and left the phone on during 10 minutes while she went downstairs, now when she returned the laptop screen was blank. She turned it off and back on again and the screen would just light up.

  I had a look myself and I can confirm that something is wrong, I asked if she had accidentally pressed any key on the keyboard is to say FN + screen off and she said that she had not.

  I plugged it up to my TV via the VGA port at startup and after leaving the laptop 10 mins and nothing, the laptop is booting, you can hear the fans and hard drive and the lights in the front are all to give a positive response but as above the custom of the screen lights up.

  Anyone able to help?

  Hmmmmm... strange.
  Try to start Notepad with AC adapter only, or only to the batteries.
  Unplug the two and leave it for a while and check if the same thing will happen again.
  You can try to remove the HARD drive and see if the laptop will start correctly (BIOS and Toshiba welcome screen).

  Do these small tests and post the result.

• Satellite A300 - turn is not on, the screen remains black

  I have a laptop Satellite A300. I tried to turn it on when I got home from work and the screen remains blank. The bottom (plug, power and battery lights) turns on but the screen remains black.

  Can someone help me?

  Hello

  It of hard to say what's going wrong here, but maybe it s just a small issue that could be solved easily.
  Try this;
  Remove the battery, disconnect the adapter.
  A few hours and reconnect the two parts.
  I had this problem in the past and leave the laptop disconnected during the night.
  The next day, I connected battery and adapter A\c and the laptop worked again

  Maybe this will help you too

• Satellite P200D-139 suddenly goes to blank screen and must be restarted

  Hallo,
  Have a Toshiba Notebook: Satellite P200D-139. Just reinstalled vista (because the phone was slow and glitch) and the computer has just only started going to a white screen at random, no error reports... nothing.

  Works fine, once it has been rebooted, restored in safemode, updates not installed... but ran ideas.

  Would be grateful for the help, thanks.

  Hmmm. my laptop s screen was empty, sometimes after the activation of the standby mode.
  But after restarting again, everything was OK.

  I searched a bit in the forum and found people who recommended a BIOS and update the display driver.
  I did this and could solve my problem

  I'm, not sure if this would be useful but try this too
  It s worth a try

• Satellite A200 screen remains black when you try to start

  Hi all

  My Toshiba Satellite A200 laptop computer no longer works, then everything started when I was playing a game, all of a sudden the screen turned blue with a tiny text written on it. I had to hold the power button for a few seconds to close, because nothing not happening on the computer. Then, I pressed the power button to open it. Everything was fine, until the Welcome screen. In this part, he wrote 'Welcome' but Vista left loading circle of it was not turning.

  After a few seconds, I decided to shut down the computer once again, so I hold the power button for the computer firm. Here's the problem: I tried to re-open it, but the screen remained black. Nothing was happening. The power light is blue, but not all computer activity. So I left it like that a few minutes then it closed and tried again, but it's the same thing. I tried to take it apart and noticed the card two memory was not entirely in its niche. I fixed it, but it does not solve the problem.

  I also tried to plug another screen on it, but this one was also black. So I handed the screen on his computer and tried to boot my laptop and it worked. He was the starter, but the first problem came, the Welcome screen was frooze it. So yes I close it up and then it's the same thing, the screen remained black.

  I don't think the problem is the screen, because as I said some time it goes to the Welcome screen. Also, I hear no welcome sound when the screen remains black as if the computer would simply not starts. And as I said earlier, I see no activity of the computer on the little light in front of the computer. And to the left of it, I see clearly that the computer is ON, because the power light is blue.

  That is my problem, the next time that the computer is able to start I'll try to boot mode SAFE, but until then, I don't know what to do. Please, help me.

  Thanks in advance,
  MrRoy

  EDIT:
  After the computer is turned off for about 30 minutes, I started and booted in safe mode. At this stage, I have locked my computer with the close button instead on the power button. Then I opened my computer and he started and the problem was solved. Now my laptop is open and working.

  So, if this happens to you:
  1. turn off your computer.
  2. wait about 30 minutes.
  3. start in safe mode
  4. close using istead of now off button power button closure.

  It should work.

  Finally, it does not work. I don't know why, but my computer did start after 30 minutes, but now it no longer works. Only, it will not start as I said later, with a black screen.

  The computer worked for about half an hour. I mean, I managed to start but after running a program, it just froze and I had to hold the power button to restart. I made about 3 or 4 times, and then he was simply the black screen again. I think the problem is my processor, maybe that it is damaged or something, would it possible?

  Because I see that the processor does not work when I try start it.

  So let's say that this is the case, would it be the symptoms of my computer?
  And if it's the processor, the only way to resolve this is to send it to a repairman or something, because I don't feel like it, I'd rather do it myself.

  But now, my computer is simply not starting, as I said in my previous post.

  Thanks in advance,
  MrRoy

• Satellite L670 - screen remains black after sleep mode

  I recently bought a L670. When I close the laptop, it goes into sleep mode. No problem with that. But when I opened the laptop again the screen remains black.
  I see on the drive activity light that the laptop come out of sleep mode correctly, but the screen remains black.

  I don't have this problem when the sleep mode is only a few minutes. Then the screen comes up correctly.
  But for example after an hour of sleep mode... no screen.

  I'm doing something wrong?

  Thanks in advance for your feedback.

  Hello

  I recommend the update to the BIOS and the display driver.
  It helped to solve a similar problem on my old laptop.
  Maybe it helps in your case.

  Good luck

• Satellite 210CS - the screen stays black (even to an external monitor)

  Dear Toshiba Forum members and guests.

  Several months ago, I found an old laptop. When I turn it on, the screen remains black. And when I connect an external monitor to the laptop via the VGA input, two screens are black. I used a flashlight, pulled on the LCD screen of the laptop, but I don't see all the details on the screen.

  I thought it was because of the empty RAM slots. This week, I bought a RAM-unit and installed.
  I tried to start the laptop again, but nothing on the two screens (even though I used a flashlight).
  I searched the Internet for certain solutions, but nothing works. I also tried updating the BIOS, found on the Web from Toshiba site.

  Some information on the laptop:
  Toshiba Satellite 210CS/1.3
  PA1230E
  48 MB RAM
  1.3 GB HARD DRIVE

  Date of manufacture: 4 ^ th ^ October 1997

  If you want more information or you would like more information, please put a comment in this thread.

  I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance.

  I think there must be some serious hardware problem.
  I don't think that someone will be able to tell what part exactly failures because it could be any inner part.
  You buy the RAMs again. Well, in this case, we can exclude RAM problem, but there is probably a motherboard, CPU or a graphics card problem.

  From my point of view of the few you don't have many options: perhaps you could found some other good treatments Satellite 210CS somewhere in the internet since it is not very easy to get parts for this oldie

• Satellite L10-333: screen stays black, until I hit the edge of the screen

  I have a Satellite L10-333, which is about 3 years old, it has suddenly started having screen problems.
  It started with a white screen instead of the normal and a black line all downstairs in the middle.

  Now when I turn on the pc, the screen remains black and dead until I hit the edge of the screen and when the screen comes alive, I must hold and press part of the cover, so that the display stays on...

  Anyone know what's the problem?
  I thought it might be a loose wire or connection.
  Someone else has or had this problem?

  Thanks for your help...

  I agree with you. It must be a contact problem. In my opinion, it is not important if anyone else has this problem too and you have to find the solution as soon as possible.
  The laptop must be disassembled and check the connection of the screen. Now the question is what to do. Can you check it alone or you need professional help?

• 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

  Shaynidw

  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.
