When you use the external monitor and when the OS is fully charged, try to use the FN + F5 key combination to turn on laptop's LCD rear.
This option is available?

  • When I log on my monitor only stays on for a few seconds and then goes black. need to turn the screen off and on several times before it lights.

    fact it for about a week now.  have ran antivirus scans and asked a lot of people who were not able to help me at the moment.

    It looks like a hardware problem.  Your monitor, cable or even the video card in your computer goes wrong.  My bet is on the screen.  Try to swap the monitor with another computer and see if the problem follows the monitor or the computer.

    I left by mistake a USB in the port when I restarted my computer (Windows 7).

    When I turn on my Dell Inspiron with Vista Home preinstalled desktop PC; the system starts with the desktop icons and then goes to a white screen, absolutely nothing to click on display. I hit control, alt delete, then to display the Task Manager. I click on the Task Manager and the display shows nothing is running. now the taskbar displays the shortcut at the bottom of the screen icons. I then click on the desktop at the bottom of the screen icon and mode full-screen displays a complete picture, including the background with the regular complete icons. Why this happens, and how not to eliminate the white screen after starting? The Task Manager does not fix this.

  • Using the trial version of creative cloud. You try to start with Lightroom. I imported the photos that come in Lightroom and are visible for a second and then go black and I am unable to do something more. Is this due to the mode of assessment? Not much o

    It seems that even this part has poor instruction for beginners. I imported the images that are visible for a moment and then go black.

    Hi Tim,

    This problem occurs when the auto tone has been applied to your images.

    For existing photos, select all your images in the grid view, and then click the Reset All button in the quick develop Panel. Then, click the auto tone button to correctly apply this feature.

    To avoid this problem in the future, choose Lightroom > preferences > Presets (Mac OS) or edit > Preferences > Presets (Windows). Select again to apply auto tone adjustments.

  • My image of the PC monitor flashes once then stays black at startup.

    NO IMAGE on the screen at the start except for a MILLISECOND FLASH then BLACK SCREEN.

    AUDIO works OK.

    When I turn the monitor off and then after a few seconds, the back, I have MS FLASH then BLACK SCREEN.

    When I turn the monitor off and then after TEN MINUTES, return, I get MS FLASH then BLACK SCREEN.

    When I RESTART (reset) the Tower, I get the same result as the line.

    I've done two attempts, the last attempt after a wait of 20 minutes, and the result was successful.

    Windows has asked for me to choose a Setup to continue... I chose NORMAL and now everything looks OK.

    This happens everytime I turn on, I have to go through the same procedure each time.

    I am also convinced that it is not good for the health of my pc.

    Please can someone... Thank you

    Hi George,.

    It seems that the monitor has failed.

    Another aspect of the screen that does not fairly regularly is the inverter.

    As he begins to come out, the monitor does not work during any part of the start-up.

    He may be able to gather enough power to turn on the monitor if, as in this case, it is left on a certain period of time.

    You can try this monitor on another computer, if this option is available, to see if it exhibits the same behavior.

    If so, it is reasonable to assume that this is a failure.

  • The Apple Mobile Device Service service on Local computer started and then stopped.

    My iDevice doesn't connect to iTunes, I think its a result of the apple mobile device service. The restart option doesn't come up, it just says  "start the service" and when I click that an error comes up which says "The Apple Mobile Device Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if not in use by other services or programs". (I've already got a post with this information on I just wanted to make it more clear)

    If your iOS device does not appear in iTunes, try the following:

    1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager
    2. Plug in your device
    3. Locate Bus USB Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
      It is also possible that the device may appear under imaging devices, portable devices or other devices or as a device USB of MTB.
    4. Right-click and select software update of the driver...
    5. Click Browse my computer for driver software
    6. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers or
      C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    7. Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
    8. Click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver

    Plug in the appliance. You should hear the telltale Windows sound device connection and a Division must acquire a new entry. This should be your device. It cannot be labelled properly at this point. If you do not hear a suspicious noise cable damaged.

    Or try If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support

    If not try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes in accordance with the resolution of the problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    Or try to go back to the last version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the programs installation of iTunes to download links. If you roll back to 12.3.3.17 to 12.3.2.35, for example, then you will also need restore the database in the manner described in the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.

  • My Satellite L350 keeps disconnecting and then restart.

    Satellite L350 keeps disconnecting and then restart.
    The fan is free from dust. I have reinstalled Windows
    There is a new battery for 1 year

    If the laptop is turned off, the battery can be charged. The laptop runs normally on the battery.
    As soon as the power adapter is connected, the computer turns off.
    When I use the computer without a battery but with the AC adapter, the computer shuts down. Test with a different AC adapter, the computer turns off.

    If the cable between the motherboard and the CC is originally the problem whether it is unlikely?

    Someone has an idea to help me with this problem?

    > From the moment when the AC adapter is connected, the computer turns off.
    There must be some kind of electronic problem of power on the motherboard.
    I put t think that the AC adapter is affected since you have already tested another (good job?) Power adapter.
    I think in case of malfunction of the motherboard, the laptop fix can be a costly affair
    The motherboard is one of the expensive parts for laptop and I think that that's not worth buying a new part for this old model of laptop.
