screen goes blank randomly windows 7

I have a new shop of computer bought with windows 7. I had my usual computer guys transfer my docs of xp. I have a new flat screen lcd moniter. I changed my screen resolution till I'm blue in the face. Power settings are defined forever extinguished. Why my moniter goes black randomly? Sometimes he does before that I even had a chance to type my password. Sometimes he does while I'm on the search or by typing. When he does, the mouse and the keyboard will no longer work. When it does I can turn the power of the moniter and turn it on again manually and it turns on. So far, I'm not impressed with windows 7 Home premium. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hello, Sheltimom3

You should be able to get the updated drivers on the manufacturers website and watch tree a section of driver or support. You should be able to download from here and install it as you would for a program.

  • Spectrum x 360: screen goes black randomly when on battery and some energy-saving options enabled

    Hello everyone,

    I bought this fantastic machine called spectrum x 360 and I love it.

    Unfortunately since the early days I'm facing what I think it's a problem of driver/software (not the related material).

    This problem only occurs when I'm on Windows, not in the bios or at the startup. JUST IN Windows envinroment, especially after the login, and when the computer was turned off. Sometimes when I use it after a while, randomly.
    This occurs only when the spectrum is on battery. The problem does not appear on AC adapter.

    Problem: the screen goes black randomly for a few seconds and then reappear, sometimes the entire image on the right slide and there is a part that looks like yellow and corrupt, then goes black and reappears.

    Windows Version: I'm on Windows Home 64 bit, build 14393.321 10 (update of the anniversary).

    The entire screen works fine for normal operations, no artifacts.

    Replication of the problem
    Initially, I was able to reproduce the problem with the driver build 4360 (which is the version of the driver from the HP site). Whenever I loaded the home page of youtube and the banner has started playing on the screen went black sistematicly.
    Then I updated the GPU driver through the Device Manager, which has improved my GPU driver to 21.20.16.4494, as of July 25, 2016 and the problem happens much more rarely.
    Now I am facing this problem again but Edge works correctly and is not the cause of the problem, it can appear even when I don't do anything with the PC.

    I noticed this problem appears when saving options are enabled for the Intel GPU (I'm trying to translate this to English because the GPU driver Panel is in Italian):

    -update panel houses;
    -advanced mode; energy saving

    If I disable these options, the problem does not appear or, better, for I've tested so far, he could not displayed when options are not in market, but I have not tested this very long to be sure.

    In my opinion, there is a bug in the display driver, or some customizations made by HP causes problems with the driver.
    The rest of the computer works correctly.
    Any idea to solve this problem? Or should I keep these options turned off power saving?

    Hi, thanks for your help.

    I have a passion for COMPUTING and ex-computer SCIENTIST, I am familiar in surveys on hardware/software questions and hope that this post will help some users get rid of this problem.
    Black screens and screen corruption has been issued by the option called "auto refresh Panel" energy saving.
    I did a lot of hours on battery (condition where this pop ups problem) in these days and the problem didn't show when it was turned off.
    To verify that I tried to activate "Panel options self-identity" in certain occasions and, at random, on the first boot of the machine (after being turned off) the problem arises again.
    It certainly is a problem with this energy-saving option.
    Now everything works fine.
    If the problem appears again, I will post more information.
    Thank you for your support.

    I think it would be useful to stick this post on top in this section of the forum, to be useful to other users and being more visible.

  • 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.

  • (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.

  • Re: Laptop wide screen goes blank when I watch videos online

    Just bought a Toshiba Satelite laptop. I installed windows 7, 64-bit in the car. A works well apart from when I watch a video on sites like youtube it sometimes works for a bit, sometimes not at all and the screen goes black as it is turned off.

    The computer is still on, but it's just the screen is disabled and any buttons I press it remains empty, forcing me to shut the whole thing.
    I installed Internet Explorer 9 and also Adobe more recent flash player for 62 bit drivers. I'm so frustrated! No matter that I just can not read video online!

    Have you tested with different browsers?
    I recommend you to check this with chrome or firefox.

  • Sansa e260: screen goes blank

    I have a Sansa e260 for about 3 months now, and it has recently stopped working.

    Here is what happened; After I finished putting the music in it, I unplugged the computer, and she has refreshed the database, as always. Only this time, the screen is blank after you refresh the database. If I pressed the power button for a few seconds, it turns off, and when I turn the back refresh the database and then shuts down.

    I tried to connect to my computer so I can format it and see if that helps, but my computer can't detect it. Instead when I plug it in, it turns on, refreshes the database and then shuts down.

    Can someone help me or point me in the right direction?

    If you have a model v1, you can try the fix recovery mode as described in section #10 message in this thread.

  • Two computers with Windows Vista has problems with (screens going blank).

    We have a Sony Vaio laptop and an HP Touchsmart with Windows Vista.  Last week Sony screen turned black and jumped, then back with the message saying there was an error with the NVIDIA GRAPHICS DRIVER, the driver had stopped working properly.  You had to do repair system, which then gave me an option to do system restore to the previous time.  Done this and back Sony a bit, then the screen went black and had to repeat the process.  Long story short, it won't restore or do something.  HP Touchsmart now do the same thing.  Anyone having this problem?

    If you have the message on which you say that you did - it's a driver problem or a video card problem.  If you allowed Microsoft to update your nVidia driver - that might be the root of your problem.  It is possible that both machines have nVidia video cards, maybe even the same.  In any case - the solution remains the same for at least the one you quoted the error for.

    Download and install the latest video card for any device driver is installed and if this does not work - could be material.

    I'm guessing that the machines are in the same place - same meaning House or business?  If they are connected to a regulation of output/device which could damage the components via automatic voltage of the voltage drops and overvoltages?

  • Computer does not start after the screen goes blank & Compaq.

    Hello

    A few weeks ago, I turned on my PC and it showed at the Compaq screen and then went to a blank screen & would not respond.

    Remove the memory and replace it. Remove the 2 * 1 GB of memory and its replacement by the Moose 2 * 512MB to check if the memory is at fault.

    Cleaning of the dust around the fan (at this point, I removed the fan over the CPU and cleaned the thermal compound from the CPU to make it nice and shiny, only tried to start one time after that for a few seconds heard blowing fan and turend it took off. Depuis_lors, I realized that it wasn't just muck and had a purpose na derwiche put a little more on)

  • Monitor goes blank after windows XP starts.

    After my computer Windows XP starts, the screen turns white.  I can see typical splash screens and the windows icon, that my home screen.  But shortly after so that files are always load, the monitor is going gray.  It is still 'active' designated by the green light, but after a few minutes Hibernate mode.

    I use a laptop docking station Targus USB Video to allow us to pass the mouse and keyboard between our PC and laptop.  In fact, we use 2-monitor cables with this, one where the monitor is wired directly on the PC and the other of the docking station to monitor.  According to the computer on which is being used, connect the right on the screen cable.  The monitor works fine with the phone.  I wouldn't believe the origin our problem since this only started happening in the last few days.

    I also changed the cable to the PC monitor without change.

    The PC had a virus or some type of software problem?

    Can anyone help?

    You have posted to a group of win7?

    Connect the monitor directly to the PC to test (without docking station or any what vid/switches) & maybe update the graphics drivers on the website of the manufacturer NOT winupdate

    Screen flickered then erased, and whenever I try to start up it turns off again.
    Any suggestions?

    Can you offer more details please?
    Is this general problem the moment where you turn on your laptop or just loading Windows OS?
    When enter you the BIOS and leave it for a while is again the flicker?
    What is safe mode? The same problem again?
