Very dark LCD

Dear all

Greetings

I am a newcomer to this forum and would like to ask your help.

My laptop: -.

IBM Thinkpad R50e 1834 /model A58/type.

Disk HARD-40 GB of memory-750 GB

Home Edition OS - XP Winsdow.

My problem: -.

My LCD has been blurred for more than a month. I see that a very small image with the help of a magnifying glass and a light live.

After downloading LCD/video driver from the IBM web site and it makes no difference.

Please help me solve the problem.

Thank you

Haris

Your CCFL Backlight may be dead or dying on you. You would need to replace the CCFL (difficult) or replace the LCD entirely (maybe you should just get a new laptop).

  • Satellite Pro M10: image on the screen is very dark

    I have a portable Satellite Pro M10, which has a black screen, i.e. the backlight does not work. There is an image on the screen, but it is very dark. When you connect an external monitor, I get a normal picture on this screen.

    Information from other messages here, I conclude that there is a problem with the backlight of the lcd screen or the inverter. I checked all connections, but it does not solve the problem. If I bring the laptop to a service center how much it will cost about for repair? The thing is 2-3 years, so if it is very expensive I could better get a new laptop.

    I'm sure I'll be able to change the inverter Board myself, but how am I going to be able to determine that the inverter is the problem? How to get a new inverter? Is anyone of you know the number of good product?

    My Pro M10 itself has PS630E-G205Z-OF product number.

    Hello

    I agree with Tobi. You sounds description as a faulty FL inverter.
    This part is placed behind the LCD screen under the lid.
    As mentioned this part isn t very expensive and you could order the partner of Toshiba service in your country. But be aware that if you have no experience of replacement if you ask technicians for assistance.

  • Problem of backlight Satellite Pro L10 - the screen is very dark

    Hello

    I've got a L10 Pro of the Satellite with a backlight problem - the screen is very dark.
    How can I confirm if it is the backlight themselves who have failed or the backlight inverter Board?

    Also, can someone point me in the right direction for a copy of the workshop manual?

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    As you have said that this problem could be linked to the failure of inverter FL and in most cases, the FL inverter needs to be replaced.
    It's a little bit complicated and it s not desirable to try to replace it to your own hand as this may damage the screen of laptop computers.
    This is why I would really recommend contacting a Toshiba ASP because of two important reasons:
    First reason is that you can order the ASP compatible FL inverter and the second reason is that an ASP could provide help how to replace this part.

    If you want to know where and how he placed s then you can visit this page:
    http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba-Satellite-A105/remove-replace-LCD-screen-1.htm

    Of course, this page shows only the wow of instruction to remove and replace the Satellite A105 FL inverter, but the procedure is not very different from the Sat L10.

    But like I said above; If you have no experience don t do anything, which could damage the laptop!

  • Satellite P10-304: very dark screen with negative colors

    I have a SP10-304.
    One day I swithched turn it on and the LCD display seems negative like a photographic negative.
    It is very dark, but the colors are there just upside? I connected to an external monitor to the rear exit and it worked well.

    The backlight of the screen seems to be bright enough so I guess that it may need a replacement LCD screen.

    If anyone can help...

    Concerning
    Paul

    Hello

    If you are a lucky man, you won't need to replace the LCD view screen but only the inverter FL. The screen is more expensive laptop parts and it would be very unfortunate if the LCD would malfunction.

    To me, it sounds like a fault of FL-inverter and this part is not very expensive.
    I guess to contact the technician to change this part if you have no experience.

  • Very dark screen of the Satellite L300-1FJ

    Hello

    I have a problem with LCD display on my Satellite L300-1FJ.
    It is very dark. At startup, I hardly see what is on the screen.

    I tried to increase the brightness, but it doesn't seem to work.

    Hello

    You mean you cannot increase the screen brightness by pressing FN + F7?

    Well, I think that the FL inverter is faulty.

    If the FL inverter starts to malfunction so everything on the screen will appear like behind a thick fog.
    In most cases, the FL inverter needs to be replaced.

    So contact the ASP technician in your country and ask for help!

    Good bye

  • Satellite A660 - display problems, very dark display

    Hello

    I'm at the end of help please.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 PSAW3A-07P00R.

    recently, it has been very, very dark display on the screen, almost impossible to see.
    I tried the following the problem solved.

    1. set the brightness to the MAX in the operating system, power management, etc.
    2 reset the BIOS to default settings.
    3. set the brightness to the MAX on the laptop brightness settings.
    4. check the external display via a VGA cable. tested ok.
    5. I bought a new LED 16 "screen but the new screen has the same problems. If I understand correctly, LED screens (1 data cable video on the bottom of the screen to connect to the motherboard) have the "inverter" built into the display, so appears not to be a problem of map display, brightness or graphics. I would be fair to assume that this is related to the data cable from the screen? If Yes, is a piece that can come from Toshiba? or something easily fixable?

    is there something easy, I missed, or something I have not tried?
    has anyone else experienced this problem and solved?

    Thank you in advance.

    > I would be fair to assume that this is related to the data cable from the screen? If Yes, is a piece that can come from Toshiba? or something easily fixable?

    As much as I know there is no FL inverter then, or you can override the display or the cable (LCD/FL)
    LVDS cable) with a new one and the test shows again.
    I found a compatible: K000103140 LVDS CABLE

  • T61 screen becomes very dark

    I had this T61 for almost 6 years. Now, I turn on the laptop, the screen is very dark and nothing is displayed. But when I close the screen and open again, the screen starts to work with the color red on bottom. This will keep a few seconds, then it flashes and go dark again. Meanwhile, the laptop will automatically transfer mode 'sleep'. Can someone give me some suggestions on what do I do please?

    Thank you very much

    Wei

    Welcome to the forum!

    The backlight (CCFL) in your screen is on its last leg, the reddish color is a dead giveaway.

    Your T61 needs a new LCD.

  • 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 '.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - display very dark

    My first post on this forum-

    I have a satellite a200 pro with a very dark screen, it works fine with an external monitor.

    I replaced the drive and the full screen with elements well known with no joy

    am I missing something simple? any thoughts welcome

    > I have replaced the drive and the full screen with elements well known with no joy
    That s very strange and to be honest I can't say with certainty why these spare parts not help you solve this problem. Is the external monitor looks OK and the chip chart isn t the troublemaker. So the problem must be linked to the internal screen or FL inverter.

    I recommend you contact the service provider authorized Toshiba to get more details about these issues and get compatible parts.

  • The camera of my C850D-115 Satellite is very dark

  • Satellite Pro L300 - 29 c very dark display

    Hello

    The display on my Satellite Pro L300 - 29 c is very, very dark. It's dark, both during POST / in the BIOS and configuration once Windows loads. The brightness of the screen (Fn + F7) is set to the maximum. If I plug in an external display, which works perfectly. I can say that this model is not a physical wheel or something similar that controls the brightness of the screen.

    Should I have a hardware failure? Is this something fixable by the user?

    Thanks in advance.

    I can't say for sure, but I think FL inverter is faulty (backlight) and it should be replaced.
    The FL Inverter control the backlight. It is important that FL Inverter are not too expensive part.
    I take in a Toshiba certified maintainer and ask for help.

  • Satellite Pro L20 with a screen very very dark!

    Help me!

    I have a L20 Pro Sam last week and it worked very well. Now when I turn on the screen is very very dark. About, I can do on the Windows logo when it loads, but I can't seem to make it bright again. When I plug in an external monitor it doesn't have this effect on the external monitor - some help please!

    Hello

    I agree with Tom, I would also say that there is something wrong with the Fl inverter or with the tube FL. well, is the only way to solve the problem is to replace the broken parts. In this case, you will need to contact Toshiba service in your country.

  • Satellite P200 screen is eventually died - now very dark

    Hello

    My laptop screen (Satellite P200) is eventually died.
    He had been much flicker when opening the laptop but settle.

    The screen is very dark and you can see just the windows etc. I can't connect a second monitor and run from that.

    -Is the screen, backlight went?
    -I'm out of warranty, how long does it take for an extended warranty through? The site has offered me one for relief.

    Any information would be great.
    Thank you
    Simon.

    Hello

    First you will not get an extended warranty, if you haven't bought it.
    If you warranty is no longer valid, then you will have to pay for the repair.

    Now a few words about your question;
    I think that your FL inverter is dead. The problem described in job ads seems to be a fault of inverter FL. This small part controls the backlight of the screen and causes this problem.

    I recommend contacting the technician of laptop (certified partner) and I will ask the Fl inverter assessment and if necessary I would work out a replacement.

  • 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
