Screen turns black during a short period of time and after 5 seconds on the Satellite A200-1DN

Hey there
I have a little problem with my computer, when I start a game, more games, age of empires 3, nfs most wanted, grand theft auto: vice city etc, the screen turns black during the game and then corrects itself after a few seconds, it becomes boring xtremely, especially when you are in the middle of something.
After that the game closed in the lower right of the screen in the taskbar, a pop up appears saying my display driver has stopped responding, resulting in at least 5 different file names that have stopped responding.

I have a Toshiba TFT screen with direct x 10(which might be the problem with the older games,i think!).
Any help would be appreciated.
My computer configuration is the graphics card with 1.5 GB of RAM, vista and intel 950 processor intel dual core.
THX.

Have you tried to play a game designed to run under Vista OS or you have noticed that play WXP games on your laptop preinstalled Vista. If possible, try to get the Vista game and test it again.

I wonder if something goes wrong, while playing older games WXP on Vista platform.

  • Screen turns black during the installation of Windows 8 on Dell Latitude E6400

    Hello

    I have a Dell Latitude E6400

    The specifications are:

    4 GB OF DDR2 RAM

    HARD DRIVE 160 GB

    Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz

    NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M 256 MB DDR2

    I'm doing a clean install of Windows 8 pro 64 bit. The problem is that when I get to the stage where the installation application to connect to a wifi, all of a sudden, the screen goes black and then nothing happens. Sometimes I am able to move on to the next step where the installation process asks if I would like to use express settings or customize it. The same thing happens on this stage too. I could not go any further than this step.

    I tried dozens of times, even tried 2 different iso files and event tried a 32-bit Windows 8.

    Same thing happens evrytime, black screen and then nothing. I wasn't able to find that everything related to the internet.

    One last thing, if it's a problem of display driver, I can't set either because I already formatted my HARD drive.

    Can someone help me please:(c'est vraiment frustrant.)

    Thank you

    Dell Latitude E6400 has not been tested by Dell for Windows 8. You won't find drivers of Windows 8 for this system.

  • Satellite P200-RT3 - the screen turns black during the Vista installation

    Laptop worked very very slow for a while (everything worked very well - just very very slow), so I decided to restart costs after the support of all my data to the top and make the factory since HARD drive restore.

    The recovery is going very well and then after restarting Vista and is preparing to launch for the first time (prob trying to load the graphical interface of Windows), display dies - black towers with some artifacts along the top of the screen. Restart in Save Mode does nothing once it is in mode safe is it says that "Windows is unable to complete the installation in mode safe process - please restart." Restart normally translates into artifacts, like LKG configuration.

    Think something went wrong, I did the whole process again with the same result...

    Thinking the recovery partition is buggered, I grabbed a Vista Home Premium disk and installed from there... same result.

    Think display Vista drivers are buggered, I installed XP Home to rule out the possibility of a crystal display liquid buggered... XP installed fine.

    Try the recovery again... no luck.

    Hello

    Just FYI: you can create a recovery disc yourself. You know about it?
    You must only start the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop. You can find it on start > programs > TOSHIBA.

    The Toshiba Recovery disk contains an image of the factory settings and it s identical to option HARD drive recovery but the drive erases the entire HARD disk.
    In my opinion, the disk is very useful, because if your drive HARD get faulty and you need a new one you can restore the settings from the factory with this disc.

    Anyway, if you have a problem during the installation of recovery, you should go to an authorized service provider. It could be a hardware malfunction, because a mistake shouldn't t normally appear due recovery facility.

  • Screen went black during use.  What can be the problem?

    That may be the problem if the screen turns black during use?

    First of all, if you use an iPhone 4 as indicated in your profile, it cannot be updated to iOS 9.3.

    Regarding the screen gone black, try a reset.

    Press and hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    If again, the screen becomes black, it is very possible that this is a problem with the hardware for a date of the iPhone 4.

  • BlackBerry smartphone screen turns black in the Blackberry Bold 9900, but everything else, keys, touchpad screen and keyboard still works.

    It is a problem, I think that many have known, but there is no real solution to the problem. However, initially all of a sudden phone has begun to show an error (can't remember not exactly what, but something related to something does not turn) and the screen locked with constantly showing loading circling constantly clock and the narrowing of the battery quickly. what I've done; Hold the alt + right shift + del (twice) to restart the phone. Restarting the phone, the screen turns black (which indicates there is neither power or the screen itself issue and it's just a matter of graphics functionality). The phone restarts you black screen, the phone clearly charged the software couple received messages (indicating the phone works and the network also works). The phone rings again and the touchpad works if you know by heart, keyboard and the short keys for speed dial works (which means that yo can call), but the screen turned black. I think it's graphic material rather software number. I tried to do all sorts of stuff and things, did not work. Finally, I decided to restore the Blackberry software (running the latest version 7.1) so I plugged it in to the computer and run terminal BlackBerry Desktop to perform an update failed with this error: "an error occurred when downloading the BlackBerry® Desktop software. Please try again. "and offered to launch the"regsvr32 ole32.dll"in order to connect to the Blackberry server to do the update. tried, restarted my PC, plug the unit again removing battery, replacement and tried again, keep showing the same error. I tried all the advice forums, youtube videos and even troubleshooting I contacted Microsoft (running windows 7 64-bit), server connection module installed and works perfectly still having the same problem.

    Anyone who had experienced the same problem and found a solution, please respond. your help would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    The GPU is integrated into the cpu, so the phone would not ring or the touchpad does not work. It is possible that the phone fell or anything that could cause the connections on the motherboard to disconnect, I gave up my 9930 and causes the connector unplugs. Would you feel comfortable taking apart? It's easy, I think you could look up how do on YouTube. I could help you if you are on Central time or Pacific.

    Hello

    It is very rare for not working. Make sure that the computer is completely shut down. To make sure that the computer is shutdown, you can try to press and hold the power button for 10 seconds straight, and once done. Press the power button once and keep tapping F8 or F10 as many times as you can.

    If it still does not work.

    Based on the specifications of your computer, you should have a Help button on the top of your keyboard. While the computer is completely shut down. Press the Assist.

  • the iPhone screen is not responding and only works for short periods of time when I use siri for an indefinite period.

    Then my phone 3 days ago started having a screen is unresponsive. I just found someone else who has the same problems as me. My screen is white and gray, flickering vertical lines at the top of my screen, sometimes extending to the bottom of the screen. My iPhone 6 s more screen shows only these lines when I use Siri for what it is, which is a little strange. To make things even more bizarre my screen becomes sensitive occasionally, but only when I'm talking about Siri for an indefinite period. One of the things I had in common with a question that someone asked who had similar problems that me was that, when these lines flickering, vertical, white and gray, the iPhone will eventually type things randomly on its own. Such as random apps or opening of the things randomly without my intervention. A unfortunate thing is that when this happens it selects things like that to end a call or facetime. I already know that the cost is $329 remedy since its considered as "other" in the apple repair options and I am also out of warranty, so I wanted to know if there is any other explanation for this. It made my phone very difficult to use these days now...

    Im going to guess that your phone is actually a 6 + and not a s 6 +, which means that your phone is suffering from simple plu epidemic of iPhones of all time - to the epidemic ic touch.  It is unrelated to Siri and tricks of the 'home', the lack of contact button that gets worse with time and flashing bars gray is the presentation of the default signature.  It's a failure level Council of integrated circuit chips that control touch and it is a design flaw in the jury of 6 + that Apple does not recognize.  You can send for microsoldering of the Board of Directors to resolve the underlying anomaly for half of the cost of your options at Apple--assuming that you are not interested in protecting your out of warranty at Apple options.

  • Screen goes black during startup and start normally

    Hi, I booted up my laptop and before something happens comes a black screen for 30 seconds and after 30 seconds, then it goes to start normally.  After that, before the Welcome screen, sometimes another black screen for 30 seconds before the welcome password appears. Is this normal? Windows 7.

    Hello

    There may be no problem. Don't forget the external devices can affect the boot process.

    First check the Boot order in the BIOS to make sure the hard drive is defined 1.

    ===========================================

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P200 PSPB6A - 17804M crashes when I haven't touched the keyboard or the mouse, for a period of time.

    The o/s is the version of Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit and specifications for the model are as link. But with a 128 MB ATI HD2600 video.

    Link: [link to the same laptop model: 0127 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TOSHIBA-SATELLITE-P200-2.6GHZ-400GB-17.0%22-WX+-200-DVD_W0QQitemZ120369598613QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ2009?] IMSfp = TL090127161001r18426]

    I have updated all the updates Toshiba including the 2.50 bios update.

    Problem
    When left alone for s short period of time, my system crashes, although my mouse moves again. Click anywhere on the screen or by using the keyboard does not seem to get back to work. The only way I can then use my laptop is to do a hard reboot by holding the button power for 5 seconds.

    My system seems to work very well as long as I don't stop using the mouse or the keyboard.
    The time between when I finally used the computer and when it hangs can range from 5 minutes to 10 hours.

    I disabled all the parameters of energy saving, including the video recording without success.

    Can someone help me with this problem?

    Thank you Batty.
