Windows 7 screen fades then goes black, if I touch the touchpad, it turns on, but is once again in 4 minutes?

When I use a program, usually watching a movie, netflix, my screen fades a bit, then turns black, I can touch my pad, and it lightens, then she does again, on every 4 to 5 minutes. Very annoying, when I watch a movie.

  • On Windows 7, the screen flashes and goes black. It shows that the display driver has stopped working

    I have premium home edition of windows 7 I had a problem with my display driver. The screen flashes and goes black and then turns back on with a message in the bottom right of the screen that reads «display driver stopped responding, but recovered» It has also closed and restarted windows

    Hello

    First, download and install the drivers from the ATI site, if you have already done so, check the graphics card and cabin temperature by opening. This normally occurs when the temperature is too high. Or if a person has overclocked graphics card.

  • Satellite A100-999 - screen flickers and goes black

    Hi, I have a problem with my Satellite A100-999.

    The screen flickers and then goes black. The works still laptop as I can connect to external monitors, but the laptop monitor are almost entirely black. It's happened before, but a reboot seemed to solve, however, Noah, as soon as the sign of the intel appears at startup, the screen turns off. It is not completely black - you can see the contours of some things on the screen, but it is almost completely black.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi xiuxiuejar_1,

    HM, if you can still see a picture on the laptop external monitor should be ok and it must be a problem with built-in LCD screen.

    Usually, if the display is it black malfunction in UPS s FL which controls the backlight of the screen, but if the screen flickers, it s the internal LCD display itself

    I guess that your laptop is not under warranty more so I would try exchanging the FL inverter it's a lot cheaper. You can order this FL inverter of an ASP or eBay but is not so easy to replace, because you have to disassemble the laptop monitor.

    Hello

    Disconnect all external devices from the computer and try to restart the computer and check what is happening.

     

    Step 1:

    Try to boot to the desktop in safe mode and check what is happening. Only basic files and drivers needed to run Windows are started. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic as possible cause device drivers. To start in safe mode follow the link.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Step 2:

    If you are able to boot to the desktop in Mode safe, it means that the third-party application prevents the computer from starting in normal mode. To check you can configure the computer to clean start State and then try to boot into normal mode and check what is happening. To set up its own start-up follow the link below.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    If the problem does not continues when the computer is in the clean start State follow the steps listed to identify which application is causing the problem.

    Note: When you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7 article to start on normal startup.

  • Window 7: Screen fades to black

    My computer is a laptop ASUS with Intel (r) Core i7-2630QM CPU @ 2.00GHz 2.00 GHz

    12.0 GB of RAM

    64-bit operating system

    And of course, running Windows 7.

    Well, then, I have a problem where my screen turns black.

    The computer does not turn off and none of the programs stop working, because I can still hear the audio of them continuing to play, but I can't ctrl + alt + del, tab, or prevent it from happening, I have to do a manual valve to the bottom of the computer. Once or twice it is simply cut to black, but most of the time it fades just for her.

    Then, sometimes, it will start to fade to black, then reduced, but then melted in the black again and stay that way. (Makes Me think THAT it is a screen saver, power booking glitch, but I checked that already, but if you have any other suggestions for this, far to offer).

    It is melted unrelated my battery or power cards, since I already have the game forever when you don't use, etc.

    I thought it had something to do with the graphics card with playing the games, as it is when it first, maybe burn, but it happens when I'm just on the desktop or on the internet too. It seems to be completely random.

    As a potential note which may have caused the it, which I doubt, but he started to happened after I did so it is possible, having had this laptop for almost two years I finally undid the bottom of things to clean dust (there a lot, kind of a surprise, it didn't ignite at any given time.)

    I used a computer dust spray, did not move anything about this, didn't remove anything, I just dusted. Made sure everything was in order and he has closed.

    Other then that, I have NO IDEA what could be causing this.

    Help would be VERY appreciated.

  • Satellite L405D-11V - freezes and the screen goes black when you watch the video

    OK, so I have the Toshiba Satellite L405D-11V, I had a breakdown, basically, the computer freezes at any time and the screen would go black, with the fan and lights still ongoing, this could be at the start, or a few hours using the laptop, so I decided to ring Toshiba technology support and they arranged for my laptop to collect and be expelled for repairs.

    I was able to track repairs online via the tracking service and was able to see what they were doing to my laptop, he said that they have ordered a part, it was underway and the repairs are completed.

    However, I got the laptop back today, I turn it on, all right, I start using the cell phone that everything is fine, so I decide to watch a video on youtube, and it freezes again, so I turned off now pressed the power button, hoping he wasn't that a large, I turn back to and load the video once again it freezes and the screen goes black again, after that whenever I am watching a video or a game, it causes the computer to crash and freeze as before the repairs. So there is always a mistake, but I'm not sure what to do

    Its still under warranty, I bought the laptop from the Comet, but I really don't want to send the laptop for repairs again and find it comes back with the same fault, is it interesting sending distributed, maybe see if the comet will replace the laptop as its still less than a year to buy the laptop, or it'll just be useful to save all the hassle and buy a new laptop? If this fault happened to someone else, I could use you some help, and if someone could shed some light regarding what could be bad?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    You changed something on the configuration after you got your notebook back from repair? You update a driver, or something else?
    What operating system you use on your L405D satellite?

    To be honest it is really hard to say why it happens because technicians test to check if your laptop is running correctly.

    In my opinion you should try to update the display driver. Maybe it's the origin of the problem of s
    If this isn't the case, I recommend installing Windows from Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. These parameters are pre-tested by Toshiba and should work.

    If you still have the problem, you must contact the technicians again. I mean you could track the online repair and according to your assignment, everything worked well during repair, so in my opinion he should t be a problem to contact guys exactly.
    Explain your very detailed problem. I think that everything can be clarified then. :)
