Tecra M3: black screen on startup, the vertical lines on the external monitor

Hi all

I searched a lot on the Internet for a solution to this specific problem, I have, but did not find a thread
with exactly the same problem. I have a Toshiba Tecra M3 with Windows XP SP 3. Two weeks ago, I encountered problems with the commissioning. After a couple of times to restart it would work. Then it became worse... When I try to run I see no splash... the screen remains black. If I press the power button, I hear the fan and CD player but no screen. It is totally black. I know its working because I can go (blindly) in the installation program. Press end, and then press Y and enter. The computer will restart but still no screen.

I plugged it to an external monitor. Pressing Fn and F5 allows switching. The external monitor shows different
vertical lines in multiple colors. They change if I go to settings or you try to start windows.

Does anyone have a solution to these problems?

I have fear of solution can be given by the service only.
In my view, this question must be tested properly.

I can't say for sure, but to me that sounds like a technical question. Without testing you will know for sure what is the problem.
Here on the forum we can only speculate why this happen.

As you can see on notebooka? s LCD problem. On external it doesnâ? t properly work as well. It may be a faulty graphics card.
Try to contact the nearest authorized Toshiba service and speak with the technician.

  • Re: Tecra A9 keeps DΘmarrer on the external monitor

    I have a Tecra A9 running on XP, it has mobile Intel 965 Express integrated graphics. I use it with an external monitor, but whenever he starts it keeps or default in the screen even if I continue to put the laptop by default.

    Has anyone seen this problem and how to fix it so that the laptop is still the default monitor?

    Hello

    You have connected the monitor directly on the laptop or with a port replicator?

    On my Toshiba laptop, I can t view this problem so in your case, I would try to update the display driver and BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    Before update you the display driver, you must remove the old version and then restart the laptop.
    On the update of the BIOS, I can give you some tips: close all running applications as your antivirus and firewall. In addition, you must be logged in as an administrator and extract all the files from zip archive before you start the update.

    Good bye

  • How to disable the Satellite A200-Ah7 screen while using the external monitor

    Is it possible to turn off the monitor on the laptop Toshiba A200-Ah7 while I use a second monitor?

    It's embarrassing to have the laptop monitor on at the same time.

    Thank you.
    Gary

    Hmm, I think that's not possible, but have you tried to press FN + F5 several times?
    Is it only a CRT monitor available?
    The monitor CRT, external display and if only that is available, then you could try to choose this.

    Otherwise, you can close the lid if you do not use the internal monitor

  • Power outage during Vista SP2 install; black screen on startup of the PC

    Hello-

    I have a PC desktop Gateway which is no longer start after a power failure has occurred during the installation of Vista SP2. The computer displays the progress at the bottom indicator, then, before that can display the login screen, the screen goes black, with a white cursor. CTRL-Alt-Del and Ctrl-Shift-Esc do nothing.

    I tried without success to the following:

    * Safe Mode/Safe Mode control guest - boots to black screen new
    * Startup Repair - told me there is nothing wrong
    * System Restore - tells me there is no available restore points
    * System restore the OEM DVD - can not find hard drive
    * Re-install this is disabled because I can't start Windows Vista-

    There are * all * options other than wiping the disc/lose all my data? The PC is in a remote area and backup drive is not an easy thing to achieve.

    The PC is no longer under warranty of the bridge, and I understand that Microsoft supports is no longer installs OEM of Vista.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    I can tell you how to make bootable disks, but you already have a disk.

    He has changed since good means of XP repair install from disk by booting from it.

    I would add that info to disk Bootable repair, just in case your DVD is a factory of one computer.

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-Vista.html

    It's Vista only repair installation option these days.
    It must be switched on!
    Not much use, is it!

    Good luck with it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Above information shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista Startup Repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    See you soon.

  • Pavillion dv6 6b15ed: Driverupdate to fix the black screen at startup windows 10!

    Hello

    Question:

    Is there a new driver is released for my AMD Radeon HD card 6755 2? (double grafics)

    Because the latest driver causes a black screen at startup. Sequence: wenn turn on u see hp and that start-up logo win 10 after that it crashes on a black screen for about 2 minutes, then start 10. (about 2, 5 minutes later)

    I have now installed a windows 8 (issues) driver and windows starts in 6 seconds (with normal hard drive).

    I can't play the games but the bootspeed is good.

    So is there a fix or is there is 1 entry?

    TNX

    While the video card is not supported with the latest drivers.

    You can update as much if you want to, but isn't is not helping.

    Even in charge AMD said that this card is not supported with drivers.

    But today, I tried 1 times more, I used the old driver AMD_Display_13.352.

    With the first reboot, it was still black and some errors of the pilot, but after that the second quick start installation restarts!

    Appearance of the logo Windows 10 only 3 or 4 seconds and start immediately, without black screen and I got sound, video and video tube work as well.

    If other people having the same problem download Drivethelife and download the old pilot 13.352 and see for yourself.

    Make sure u delete all drivers previously installed with DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) of guru3d site.

    Almost forgot: I also disabled windowsupdate to prevend install other drivers (new).

    Greetings

  • Black screen at startup, unable to boot from the CD

    I did something wrong on my Thinkpad T43 2668, now I have Black Boot screen cannot Access IBM, can not press a function key, cannot start from the CD.  Here's what I did:

    1 got unwanted winxp sp3 updates automatic, then restored to the permeable point via Windows XP system restore, then, cannot start system; cannot boot from the Windows XP CD

    2 2 demarrer start from Linux Live CD, format hard drive and install ubuntu, hidden Partition of domain is not deleted, always there;

    3. can start Linux OS, but black screen on startup. There is no way to see what's happening at startup; Pressing a key of function or IBM bottons returns no result, always boot in Linux;

    4. cannot boot from any CD bootable legal except Ubuntu Live CD;

    5. no means of access Bios to set the boot sequence, therefore, cannot boot from USB floppy either.

    Advice is appreciated!

    PS. I tried Linux live CD some time ago before this trouble, click on "help me to boot from CD", got something installed. I guess it's something installed out of the box and that is why now I can boot from a Linux Live CD.


  • Black screen on startup instead of the splash screen

    Sometimes it shows a black screen instead of the start screen and I have to restart my laptop using ctrl + alt + delete.

    This happens at every start, but sometimes it takes a little more time to the log on screen (which shows the name and photo of the user) and a black screen appears with no option, same shortcut as windows, windows + D, windows + I, windows + C etc works on this screen. What conclusion I came up with, it is "there is no other choice, rather than using ctrl + alt + del-> restart" and then it works normally.

    am using alt + ctrl + del options to lock, ease of access, etc. Task Manager & the option to as well as I use to start my laptop and it starts normally.

    Then, the most likely scenario is that explorer.exe crushed and for some reason any decided not to try to recover.   Use the Task Manager to test this idea.   For example to enter his Details tab and see if explorer.exe is there, if not, you can use the TM file, run command... to try to run again.   You can also start some diagnostic programs such as trying to get a glimpse on why explorer.exe does not display you its screen start Event Viewer.   As I mentioned a likely explanation for this would be on the bad monitor but then I expect not allow you to see the Ctrl-Alt-Delete menu, no more.  The usability of this scenario is quite wrong and the user should understand the opportunity that can use the keyboard cannot be seen without doing something to change it.

  • Satellite A305-S6898 - half black screen at startup

    I bought this laptop in early March and had to return to store due to a problem at startup when half of the screen would be black on the Windows login screen. They ordered me a new I got about 3 weeks ago and I used it for about a week before I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.

    Now he has been running really slow and there is a time, I've had it freeze on me and my screen turn into a bunch of colored lines.
    I had to reboot in safe mode and run a virus scan just to make sure it wasn't my problem.

    I do not download anything on this computer other than basic messengers and photo editing programs.
    I have a HP MP7170N desktop computer which I use to download everything that seems to work faster than the laptop and I use photo, download torrents programs and store most of my pictures and music on this one and it has only 1 GB of memory compared to this the 4 GB.

    What is the problem?
    Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do.
    I can't really go back to the shop because they give only a grace period of 14 days for returns.

    > I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.
    > Now he has been running really slow and there is a time, I've had it freeze on me and my screen turn into a bunch of colored lines.

    Doesn't look good for me it sounds a bit like graphic problem.
    Before contacting a professional Toshiba authorized service provider would be, it would be interesting to know if you have seen improvements after recovery procedure and BIOS updated.
    I think you n t get a recovery disk because you can create it using the verification of software preinstalled Toshiba manual how to create the recovery disk

    If, after installing new check usability of portable and so similar issues still persists.
    If nothing will change it s is strongly recommended to communicate with an ASP.

  • Black screen on startup Satellite A80

    I get a black screen at startup what is the problem and what is the solution for it? It might have something to do with the cold?

    Hi poly

    Please put more details on the problem, because it s not easy to say what has happened without any detailed information. You hear the operation of the HARD disk or fans?
    Switch you to other devices to display, before this problem occurs?
    Unfortunately it FN + F5 key combination doesn't work if the operating system has started so it could be a malfunction of the equipment. I don t think you can solve this problem by yourself. In this case, the only way is to contact the service.

  • Qosmio G30 - black screen on startup

    Hello

    Having problems with my G30 at startup. I was watching TV using the media library (by pressing the shortcut of the TV next to the power button), but when I tried to reboot the system (by pressing the power button) all I get is a black screen! I hear the sounds of start and the hard disk icon flashes but I don't see anything. Suggestions welcome!

    Neil

    Hello

    Have you tried to connect the laptop to the external monitor to check if something appears on the second screen?
    I think that you should do this. In addition, you can try to use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between the two views.

    If this is not enough and you still won't be able to see anything, I assume that there is a serious hardware problem.

    In this case you should always contact the ASP in your country because in my opinion the simply, common laptop user would not be able to know what's exactly wrong because of the lack of experience and the necessary tools.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A100 - black screen on startup

    For two days my laptop Toshiba A100-495 / model-No. PSAA9E-18F047GR / Y6065357Q with Windows XP SP3 serial shows a black screen at startup. There is still no picture Windows startup.

    The laptop is all starting, but after finishing and be ready for use, the screen is always black. When I am pressing Fn + F5 keys, the desktop appears.

    The black screen is only starting cold after stopping, not awareness of standby or pause.

    > When I am pressing Fn + F5 keys, the desktop appears

    It seems that the display output is set to external monitor
    You see the Toshiba start screen if the laptop is connected to the external monitor?
    Check it!

    In addition, I am agree with Akuma BIOS should be the default value.
    To access the BIOS F2 press while turning on the laptop. I hope that you can do this then press F9 for default settings and then exit the BIOS save settings.

  • B540 TDR and black screen on startup

    Hi all, I bought a B540 in April a power works fine until end of July when it began to show the error "display driver has stopped working and has recovered." a few days later I let him (I have need as a wifi station to connect devices remove) and after a few hours of work, when I came back, the screen was off and there wa no way to turn it on. I press the power button for a few seconds to turn off the pc and he died. When I turned on, the computer started but the screen is off (not the 'lenovo' logo was shown on the eve) but everything else seemed to work (play plug/unpluging usb external hard drive the sound of the carachteristic). I turned off again and wait ten minutes before the market again, this time above the 'lenovo' logo was shown, but it seems that the pc failed to boot win 8. I unlplugged everything, removed the power cord, wait an hour and after that all started ok but the error message "display driver stop" was still there. After this date the computer randomly starts ok or with the screen. Given that I do not use it intensively Isuspected some windows update to cause this strange behavior and I'm trying to use a point of restoration, until July 17, but the problem was still there. Then I removed all recent windows update of June on, and I realized that in one case, it was not possible (i.e. the "remove/uninstall" button not showed that KB). I googled around and found the subject KB has been reported to broken system and the only way to react was to use a DOS command to reatore a new installation of the system. I did and actually everything works ok for 2 days (one day, I actually use the PC all day to upload stuff to iternet it to work). Unfortunately, after that day, everything seems to repeat: new 'pilot not resposinding to display' and a black screen at startup.

    Please consider that the system is quite new and clean (only 3/4 months of life) and everything works fine until end of July. What do you suggest me?
