White screen of death. MacBook Pro. Help, please!

Hello! I desperately need your help.

So I was with my mac, all normal until one day it freezes and I m to force close.

Unfortunately when I tried to turn it back on, it's just stuck in the white screen of death. Most of the time, is just white screen without logo or an image folder or anything like that.

I know that my computer is alive because sometimes (not often), the apple logo and I m able to try reinstalling OS X (but then it crashes again), but most of the time is just a white screen. I tried most of the entries and they don't do the trick (Cmmd + R, shift, etc.) Most of them Don t work and Don t anything, except for the PRAM zapping entry that is Cmmd + Option + R + P, but after resetting, it still shows just the white of the screen most of the time.)

Is there a way to fix this?

Thank you very much.

If you can get to single user. Order S at startup, you can use the command fsck - fy, then click on enter. If return it Mac or (your user name) change of command run again until it come back OK.  You are unable to recover, R command? or safe mode, the SHIFT key down?  If you get something different during race one user post. You have a time machine backup or whatever it is?

  • Satellite A350 - white screen of death

    Hello

    Recently, I broke my screen in a fit of anger and sent him to Toshiba repair.
    They replaced my screen. It was a month ago.

    I installed windows 7 3-4 days ago and it worked fine.
    I opened my laptop one night to discover a white screen empty.
    After turning it works, take the battery and the white screen remained, and then it appeared randomly with system restore options

    I restored the system and apply a fix from microsoft to counter the supposed error windows 7. It did not work.
    White screen when I put the laptop to sleep (the laptop stop) or stop it.

    The screen appeared again yesterday and I left it all night in the hope that this would change.
    My sister took out and put back in the battery and a screen appeared asking how you would like to start windows.
    I started windows then reinstalled Windows Vista using a mirosoft installation disc.

    After the installation of AVG Antivirus it tells me to restart.
    I restarted the laptop and instead of the toshiba logo on the white screen of death appeared.
    He stayed for 10-20 seconds then my laptop started.

    I looked at this article (http://www.laptoprepair101.com/laptop/2008/04/13/laptop-lcd-screen-turned-white/) and suggested that the screen may have problems. I should send it back to Toshiba?
    Can someone provide diagnostics?

    My specs:
    Intel Core 2 Duo CPU P7450 processor
    2.13 ghz
    4.00 GB RAM
    32 bit OS

    So basically, I have a white screen randomly when I reboot, turn on, or put the laptop to sleep. If he get's a strange thing to many factors. I don't think that its my OS because what happens on Vista and Windows 7

    Please help as much as you can. I didn't wan't to take it in for repair as it can cost money

    Hello

    For me, it looks like hardware problem.
    It s hard to tell if it s graphic card issue or display problem.
    But if the display has been replaced a month ago, then I would recommend contacting the guys again. I mean the part could be faulty again and my knowledge, replaced parts are covered by warranty for a short time then perhaps that the warranty would cover it once again if the display is faulty

  • Variation on the white screen of death - Sansa Fuze.

    I get the white screen of death, but my problem is unique in this sense: I can turn on my rocket, browse my menu and enter in the subsections of the menu, for example, Mian Menu > settings > Panel configuration, but when I click on an option, say, format, white screen, reboots of my rocket, and the screen is frozen on the logo screen.  Help, please

    Sounds beyond any help that is initiated by the user (reset, format, firmware, re - install, etc..). I would like to, or send it back if you are in the window to return to your dealer. If this is not the case, call SanDisk directly to a likely RMA replacement if it is less than 1 year old.

    1. Above all, back up your BlackBerry device.  Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager and select backup and restore.  In the next screen, select backup and perform a full backup of your data on the device.  Note the location of the backup file (usually in the Documents folder).  Close the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and let your connected device.

    It could be at this stage.  I'm leaning more towards the software side.  Can you take the device to the store and reload the software?  If we give them problems, then the material may be failing.

  • First white screen of death, now black screen on the internal, external screen works

    Hello

    a few months before I could not suddenly start my macbook more. He had the white screen of death and absolute no functionality in addition to its departure.

    A few days ago I got the macbook, open/close a couple of times so that it is operated and suddenly the keyboard LED lit and the screen

    turned black. I realized that he really started and connected to the external monitor. everything works fine now in addition to the internal display.

    I run Apple Hardware Test mode clamshell, but extensive testing even said that there is no material errors.

    can I conclude that my screen is not faulty? I thought it of the graphics chip, but wouldn't the AHT it detects then?

    Another thing to mention is that the battery should be changed (warning hint)

    I tried PRAM - & resetting the SMC without success.

    MacBookPro 13 "A1278 mid-2012.

    I would really appreciate any kind of advice.

    Thanks in advance

    Alex

    The symptoms you describe point to a faulty screen or display connection.  Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a final assessment.  The event will be FREE.

  • Just as a reference: how to FIX the annoying 'White Screen Of Death"with Silverlight and"Access denied"error with computer management.

    Well, I just hope that someone who has met these two mistakes will find my dose. It might save a lot of pointless research on the net.

    SYMPTOMS:
    -When you try to open a Silverlight application in your browser (Firefox, Chrome, IE, etc), your browser displays only a white area. When you right click on the white area, you can click on the Silverlight properties.
    -If you try to start "Computer management" by clicking on the 'My Computer' icon and select 'Manage', you get the following error: 'access denied '.

    CAUSE:
    The following errors are usually the result of a bad environment variable. In this case the "windir" environment variable does not work correctly. You can try running the management of the computer to start > run and entering:
    %windir%\system32\mmc.exe/s %windir%\system32\compmgmt.msc

    Notice the between the characters of percentage windir environment variable. If you run the above code, you will probably get an error saying that MMC cannot open the file. Look closely at the path, it's back!
    You will probably find any % somewhere.

    What actually happened here is the variable windir made reference to another variable: systemroot
    Why this creates problems, I'm not sure. Also, I don't understand what made then variable windir change.

    SOLUTION:
    -From your desktop or Explorer: right-click on "My computer" and select "Properties".
    -Click on the "Advanced" tab and then click "Environment Variables".

    http://pcauthorities.com/images/advanced-system-properties-XP.jpg

    -Did the windir variable. Together to "C:\Windows" do not think that it is already set to "C:\Windows", because windows then tells you. Double-click it to know for sure.

    -See, I told you! Change this to "C:\Windows".

  • BlackBerry Curve 8520 smartphones stuck on a 'white screen of death '.

    Hello world

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8520. Yesterday, he got stuck on a white screen, with a little black clock in the middle (the kind you see when you're waiting for a page to load in the browser).

    Even if I turn off my phone, take the battery or put it on charge, this "white screen of death" I read he is described by other people online, won't go away!

    If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

    Ok.

    If your BlackBerry is turned off the power with a black or white 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. Congratulations! 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.
