Hi John

The screen is now working, I uninstalled the drivers, the
screen wasn't working no matter what we did this end, I then
had problems with screen readers because of the video
interceptors so I did a system restore, it fixed it, the
problems we have with computers, one little file can cause
so many big problems. Ok thanks.  


Regards

Adrien

Hi Adrian,

I am only guessing here, but it seems to me that you have
inadvertently turn off the laptop screen (or as Samsung say,
switched between laptop and connected monitor screen). This
is an easy thing to do on small netbooks and, indeed, any
laptop. It is a key combination which requires holding down
the FN (function) key and pressing another key to change
certain settings.
As the Alt F4 key is normally used to close a programme or
shut down a window, this can easily be mixed up with the FN
and F4 key combination which turns your screen off. Try
holding down the FN key (this is normally located to the
right of the Control key on the left of the spacebar) keys
along the bottom from the left should be Control key,
Function key, Windows key, Alt key, Spacebar etc. So, as I
say, hold down the FN key and then press F4. If this is
indeed your problem then your screen should burst into life.

Hope this solves your problem.

Cheers.

John.

Hi 

I am having serious problems with my netbook this week, it
keeps crashing. I have had nothing but problems with it.
Anyway, I am having problems with the display, it turns on
ok, I can see it light up when windows is booting up but mum
tells me the screen is black once windows has loaded. I
phoned samsung, they ran me through some checks but with the
room being very light, I was unable to see the screen
clearly enough because I can only see light and dark. I
uninstalled the mobile pc drivers, rebooted the pc and
windows put the drivers back in again, it looked very bright
but I'm not too sure. Is there a tool for fixing and
checking hardware issues on pc's? I had to run system
restore because having reinstalled the drivers, it upset the
screen readers. What is the best way around this, I can't
get sighted help because if the screen is black they can't
see anything. I'm sure it is just software causing the
problems other wise the screen wouldn't light up when I boot
into windows.  

Regards

Adrien
