TE2100 - screen gone dark

Can someone help me,

I was working on my TE2100 the other night, when all of a sudden the screen went almost completely dark, and I was not able to recover any screen since. I tried re-booting etc, but no success.
If I look closely I see a very small image, but it is very difficult to see.
The machine works perfectly well otherwise, I can always turn on and log in as usual, I don't see anything on the screen!

Hi Russell,

It seems to me that if your FL inverter has failed. It is a device quite inexpensive which provides the installation of backlight of your screen. You will need to contact an ASP to arrange for replacement.

Kind regards

  • Satellite A105-S361: screen becomes dark gray with gray fine lines

    I have a new laptop Satellite A105-S361 and seem to have display problems. My screen turns dark gray (with fine gray lines) while I use my laptop. This normally happens after using my laptop for 5 minutes or up to 30 minutes. When I restart my computer, I get the Toshiba start screen, and then it works very well for another five minutes before aging again.
    I tried to connect to an external monitor and it works fine.

    I also installed a new BIOS, but I still have the same problem.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi, Ahmed.

    It sounds like a problem with your inverter FL. This is the device that provides lighting for your LCD screen. The fact that you can use an external monitor shows that there is not a problem with your graphics card.

    Fortunateky the FL inverter is not an expensive component and is quite easy to change then I suggest that you only contact your closest partner of Serviec allowed to check your laptop.

    Kind regards

  • My screen got darker?

    I have a HP 600-1352 p6100 Touch Screen and have been absent for a few days. The screen got darker and very difficult to see. Can someone tell me please how to fix this?

    I hope you have your monitor set by qualicum now, but for those who find this thread because they have the same problem (like me), here's the fix:

    Reason is unknown as to why the parameters suddenly changed, but (in Windows 7) go to:

    Control Panel > system and security > Power Options > (choose the plan you are working with and) click on "change plan settings".

    There is a scroll bar "Setting brightness of plan" as the last option, move the slider to the right, then click on save changes.

    Your screen will then become it's usual self luminous.

    Hope that helps!

  • More than half of my screen went dark on my old monitor?

    Original title; Display problem

    The monitor CRT Samsung regarded 56v, old enough, but up to 2 days back worked perfect. Now, the screen is dark on one side (right side and Center too) while most left is normal, the dark side covers almost 70% of the screen. That's the problem with the monitor, or anything else on the CPU Cabinet? Please let me know how to solve this problem.

    The position of the screen has been changed or whatever it is was recently been placed near him, say a speaker?

    Try another monitor and try the monitor on another computer. This will restrict the cause of a failure of the computer video or monitor. The symptom points quite strongly to the fault of the monitor. If so, the only remedy will be repair or replacement.

  • BlackBerry 8330 Smartphone screen is dark & blink red (4blinks)

    My 8330 screen is dark and I'm lit or flashing red signal.  I tried pulling the battery to reset and does not help.  Can anyone offer any suggestions?

    Thank you

    If your BlackBerry is still under tension turned off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life may be the flashing red indicator light in the upper corner. Nothing seems to wake and Desktop Manager does not recognize that a device is connected.

    (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

    'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

    (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
    (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
    (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Press Next and finish, and that you are well on your way to get your Blackberry to life. Just unplug and let the process finish completely.

    NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.
    http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
    Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

  • Why is my screen very dark?

    my screen is very dark and it is a new computer using Windows 10. The screen was very bright and it is now difficult to read. The system has had a lot of problems earlier. I turned off the computer for about an hour and a half and now it is gray.

    This looks like a problem with the function of Adaptive brightness of Windows 10.

    I suggest to go in:

    1. Parameters
    2. Power options
    3. Change Plan settings
    4. Change advanced power settings
    5. Scroll down to view
    6. Select "enable adaptive brightness.
    7. pass the two selections on 'OFF '.

    That being said, please keep in mind that there is a support forum for Mozilla Firefox, not Microsoft Windows, we help you gladly your questions of Firefox but issues relating to associated Microsoft products really apply to Microsoft Support or community Microsoft Forums.

    I hope this fixed your issue, if it has changed then please your "Resolved" issue, so that we know that it has helped.

  • Satellite Pro M40: screen remains dark until Windows has fully loaded

    Hello to all here.
    I have a problem with my laptop. My laptop is a Satellite Pro M40.

    When I turn on my laptop, I found the backlight won't come... the screen will stay dark until it has fully loaded into Windows. I've checked all my food, and there all fine options. Even if I can get the Bios screen its impossible to read the txt because without backlight. I tried to hold the Fn & F7... joy of Noy.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Richard

    Hello Richard

    I didn't see anything like that before and I'm a bit confused why you can't see the BIOS settings, but running the OS. Use of the FN + F7 key combination won't help because this option only works on Windows and not on the level of the BACK.

    If possible try to plug the external monitor and test again. In any case I put t think you can fix it yourself. Try please contact Toshiba authorized partner in your country. Explain the situation and see what they say.

    If you discover that something please let us know. It will be really interesting to know why this happen.

  • Portege R700 internal to screen very dark but can use the external monitor

    Hi guys,.

    just had a question about my Toshiba Portege R700 as the screen went white and I couldn't see the screen or sometimes I could and it was very dark!

    However, the laptop could start up as normal and I could use it normally through an external display!

    Subsequently, I replaced the screen and it started working again (happy days)!
    However, a few weeks down the line the same problem again apparently did screen dies.

    I take off again and disconnect and reconnect the screen just to see if that would solve the problem and he did, back and working again. I even tried the old screen I swapped and that works too!
    So I paid £140 + for a new screen that I didn't need, my question is what is the problem?

    Could not find anything else on this topic so would appreciate any help thanks

    Hello

    It is difficult to say what might be wrong here usually black screen can be related to a faulty FL inverter.
    But laptop computer s display supports a backlight Led FL inverter should not be a problem here
    Maybe some loose contacts caused this

  • Portege R500-10J: not possible to watch movies - colors screen too dark

    Hello!

    I recently bought a Portege R500-10J and have a pretty bad problem - I can not watch every movie (DVD or *.avi or anyone else) here. All media are invisible on the screen. Its too dark and some colors are recorded.

    I have no problem with all office applications, or browsing the internet, the colors are perfect for screen 12.1 inch, but using any application media is almost impossible.

    Didn't help not change any settings. The colors are extremely poor. I have not install anything but this was while the computer is first.

    Anyone know - is it a hardware problem (video card) or software (drivers, codecs, sth else), or it is a normal phenomenon?

    Hope it can be fixed. This laptop is supposed to be used for watching movies on a trip...

    To be honest, it is not easy to understand your problem. I guess you use battery power while traveling. In this case, intelligence tool will probably switch to energy saving mode. In this case, the display brightness will increase at a lower level.

    You can set it to the highest level by using the FN + F7 key combination. Be sure that the screen is in the right direction (90 degrees from your eyes).

  • Satellite L850-1JH - dead, screen too dark

    Hi all.

    I had a problem with this laptop for the last four weeks.

    One day worked, it normally stops and the next day when I power the screen was dead.

    The fan stands up and lights, caps and numlock function, but not picture.

    There are also 3 days ago, I noticed that if the screen is tilted I can actually see the Toshiba logo at boot and then a few icons on windows 8.

    For what I found online that this laptop doesn't have a UPS because she is LED which requires current DC which is quite a new thing on laptops, I think.

    One thing which I use to to check if there was any kind of output image has been to connect the laptop to the tv, but for some reason, that no picture is via vga or hdmi port.

    That being said I'm reluctant about the fault being the monitor. One thing I'm positive, I can certainly see very dark and with the monitor image tilted slightly.

    Someone had a same or similar problem?

    See you soon.

    Albert

    I ve never been faced with this problem on my Toshi and cannot say for sure what the problem is here, but my opinion is that you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
    I assume that the warranty is still valid for repair, if necessary, will be free of charge.

  • The screen is dark on my laptop satellite

    Hello
    We have a toshiba satellite that currently does not work as it should be...

    When light us, the screen is very dark. It works well, you can see the scenery and everything, the screen is just really, really dark. is there maybe some "sercret butten" somewwhere there which would alter the lighting? any help would be much appreciated!

    Thank you
    Sue

    Hello

    Have you checked the brightness display settings?
    Check if you can increase the brightness of the screen with the FN + F5 key combination.

    If this does not help then I guess that there is a hardware failure. It may be faulty inverter FL as in the previous suggested announcement.
    This part is not very expensive. But first, you should ask guys to service for advice. They should be able to give an answer accurate and they can solve.

  • Satellite Pro L670-103 screen is dark - external monitor ok

    Hello

    Screen goes black in my Satellite Pro L670-103 while playing games. It is not completely off, but very very dark.
    System is activated and works while its happening. No flickering, changing colors.
    On the external monitor (TV via HDMI) everything works fine (so I guess that the GPU is very well).

    The beginning I had to restart the laptop and screen was once again but now it does not work and I have to wait a few more hours a sound goes on again just by itself (im leaving laptop on).

    I only use the approved oryginal drivers.
    System Windows 7 pro 64
    I guessed it might be the display inverter, but someone from the point of laptop repair told me that because my screen is RUN there is no converter and problem is with the screen itself.

    I spent hours reading various forums and UPS has been my best guess.

    Post edited by: Cezar_1

    Hello

    I think that its problem of converter FL.
    The FL inverter controls the backlight of the internal display.
    I think I get m with my suggestions because the external monitor looks ok.
    So it may not be a driver issue not a GPU problem

    Get in touch with the service in your country then must check this part
