Dv2000 Laptop Screen go's black .. Video Card?

Hi
I have a HP Pavilion DV2000 laptop with Vista, and the screen stays black when it goe's into sleep mode. I got it to work when I powered off the laptop and hooked an external monitor to it, then powered it back on.. It worked for awhile until I shut the lid, and it went back into sleep mode.
Now, even when I hook an external monitor to it, the screen is still black.
After reading bookoos of threads, forums, websites and trying tricks, resetting battery, holding pwr button..etc I can only find solutions that tell me that its the integrated video card, and that the motherboard needs to be replaced. BestBuy also gave this advice.
Is there any alternative route here than spending $200+ dollars on a motherboard... and even if I did purchase another motherboard, How would I know that Motherboard is not defective also?
Any advice is welcomed.. I'm at wits end on this!

Thanks

here a you tube video, its exactly the same mobo as yours.
If the reflow wont fix it, yes you can sell it as parts or just store it somewhere as a "treasure" from Nvidia and HP

Upgraded to GeForce GTX TITAN Black video card. Everything is too small to read.

Upgraded to GeForce GTX TITAN Black video card and a Samsung 4K monitor, recently. Now, everything in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 is too small to read. What can I do to make it readable?

UI scaling for larger displays was just added in the latest CC update, so I don't think there's much you'd be able to do on Premiere's end in CS6. If you're in Windows, you could use the universal scaling in the display control panel, but things might get chunky pretty fast with that.

Brand new Macbook Pro 15"inch laptop screen randomly going black

My laptop screen randomly going black during the use of computer, but the cursor is active and it moves with the track-pad. I bought this macbook pro 15"Inch laptop just 3 weeks ago. Did anyone come across this issue? Is there any alternative for this issue?

Hello Clinton
Thank you for your prompt response. I took an appointment with Genius Bar. Yes, this is a brand new laptop purchased it online through Apple website and received it on May 29th. I started noticing this issue from last week and it is happening at least 4 to 5 times in a day.
If this is really a hardware problem, is there any chance for laptop replacement or what will they do?
Regards!

Black screen after deinterlacing, 2 video cards inside MacPro

Hi!
I'm using QT 7.2 Working with HDV1080i footage.
When I select Deinterlace option I get black screen...
I'm using two video cards X1900 (2x30" cinema) and GF7300 (1x23"cinema)
Please help...
regards
ARTI

Hi,
Safe Mode just loads basic video, it seems your graphic card doesn’t work properly with your computer.
For this situation, this seems a hardware issue, before you send device back to ASUS, you can update your BIOS to the latest version for a check.

Laptop screen goes completely black but shows that it's still on

Hello everyone, i'm in need of serious help!
I bought this laptop over 2 years ago (October of 2008 to be somewhat exact). It's a Windows Vista Home Premium, with service pack 2.
its an HP pavilion dv7 notebook pc
processor: AMD Turion (tm) X2 Dual-Core Mobile RM-70 2.00 GHz
Ram: 4GB
system type: 64-bit operating system
im assuming the video card information are as follow:
name: ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics
chip type: ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics (0x9612)
DAC type: Internal DAC (400MHz)
total memory: 1914MB
memory: 3836MB RAM
page file: 2163MB used, 5732MB available
current display is 1440 x 900 (32 bit)(60Hz)
directx version: directx 11
with that being said... here's my dilemma...
Each time i play the video game, "World of warcraft", my laptop's screen goes completely black but it shows as if though it is still on. I can't see the screen but it shows that it is still on by the little lights on the bottom of the screen.
I took my laptop to a family friend who knows a lot about computers to see if they can fix it for me. They told me that everything was running fine, everything is okay, the ram, memory, graphic card, everything passed the test, and it was not over heating... there was nothing wrong with my laptop. They THOUGHT it could be the motherboard, so they tried it, but in the end, it wasn't. Unfortunately the problem was not solved.
I played World of warcraft on this laptop before. When i first bought it. It ran smoothly and gave me no problem whatsoever. I'm clueless is to though why it's giving me problems NOW.
Could anyone please please pleaseeeee help me? i have given up already. I have done everything i could. Please help me! i believe i have done a total one 1 or 2 system restore to factory settings, the 2nd one was recently (probably a month ago) and i'm not sure if maybe perhaps i needed to DL something else? i have DL all the updates that microsoft offered to me when needed and when it was necessary, but this particularly problem was never fixed.
someone please help me! Thank you so much!

erichon99,
I think i may have found MY solution but i have yet to test it out... No one helped me. No one at all. I took my PC to a family friend company and they did everything for me: ran tests to see if my laptop is up to date with everything, removed graphic card and put a better one and nothing still. They thought it was my mother board but they ran tests again and everything on my laptop past the test. My graphic card was fine, ram was perfect, memory was perfect, everything everything on my laptop was perfect. They couldn't find out what was the problem. I took it to best buy and not even them could help me. When i was about to give up, my fiance, he did some research and found this guy on youtube who does LIVE recordings and answers people's questions. My fiance asked the question and he got serveral responses. Out of 10, i would say about 2 or 3 of them mentioned, "it's the power cord" the rest said it might be virus, or a card is not working properly, etc. You can give it a shot (buying a new power cord) those who told my fiance that it could be my power cord, said to get those power cord that has a fan in them.
I think this makes sense because my screen goes black only when i'm playing a game. even when i play cityville on facebook it goes that black screen, but it doesn't go black, it does that pixelated, rainbow, warning bar, thingy (i hope you know what i mean lol) and when i touch my power cord to my laptop it is BURNING hot. What i do is, when my battery is fully charge, i disconnect and play my game, and to not lose any docs i left open, i close my games, and plug back in. I've been lazy to find another power cord lol i guess i should start now, huh? lol
i hope this help. I would say (if you've done everything like how i did) buy a power cord that matches your laptop, but with a FAN in it (i was told it's the best and you'll never have that problem of freezing or whatever)

Laptop screen plays back jumpy video, CRT looks fine

I have a strange problem:
When I play back video from FCP (6.0.6) in either the canvas or the viewer and the window is entirely on my laptop screen, it looks jumpy, sort of like if the playback frame rate was set to dynamic. If the window is even partially (like 10%) on the CRT, the playback is fine. The jumpiness goes away if I set the playback quality to Medium.
I have been editing with this setup for a year or so and only recently noticed this. I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, but FCP is still 6.0.6. Is this a Snow Leopard / FCP version problem? It seems odd that it would only exist on my laptop's LCD screen and not my CRT.
System Details:
I have a 2.6 Ghz Macbook pro with 2gb of ram. The DVI out is connected to an old LaCie Electron Blue 22" CRT. I typically edit with both screens, usully putting the canvas on the laptop screen and the viewer on the CRT. My playback framerate is set to full and video quality set to high. My capture scratch drive is an OWC Mercury Elite Pro set up as a RAID 0 and connected via Firewire 800. My sequence setting is ProRes 422 1440x1080 and the footage was shot with a Canon XH A1. Some was captured as ProRes and some as HDV, but the problem happens with both kinds of footage.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
- Bruce

I suppose that makes sense. I do wonder, though, why it would have this weird behavior where it only does it if the entire window is on the laptop screen. If just a little sliver of it is on the CRT, then it's fine. Also, why would it prioritize the performance of the second display over its main display?
Is there any way to boost the graphics card performance? Would more RAM take some of the pressure off the graphics card, or are the tasks strictly separate?

Screen Distoring, Possible Dead Video Card, PowerMac G5 Dual 2.7

I've had my Dual 2.7 G5 since early 2005. It has been a great computer for me over the years. Noisy as ****, but great. A month ago my screen started to distort every now and then (see pics below). The computer would freeze when the screen distorted. Then when I would reboot, the distortion and artifacting would occur even at the grey boot up screen and lock up. With enough reboots it would finally get back to the desktop and be fine for a few days. This no longer works anymore. I haven't successfully booted the computer in over 2 weeks. After the distorted grey boot screen it will go black and all you see is the artifacts, never getting to the desktop. Is this a dead video card? I'm running the stock AGP Nvidia GeForce 6800 GT.

If this is a dead video card, do you have any suggestions for the best AGP replacement. I'm looking for something powerful. All I'm finding are very pricey 256mb cards. I'm willing to pay for a powerful card. Thanks very much. I don't want to give up on this G5!

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
Agreed, the card is toast.
Look on eBay for used OEM cards, as that is your best bet.
The same card is a good choice, with only the Mac edition Radeon X800XT or X850XT being more powerful.
There is yet another alternative, that in a flashed Geforce 7800 GS, which is THE most powerful AGP card available for Macs.
For the money, a flashed 7800 GS is the best bet.

Is there a fix for MAC Pro with Dual video cards that randomly logs off and on?

From my readings on the Internet this seems to be a know problem. That even furthers my frustrations with the latest OS X upgrades. So far on both my MACBOOK PRO and my MAC PRO it has been a major downgrade as both systems are no longer stable. Enough with my complaints...
Is there any plan to address this problem with the MAC PRO? I can't believe 10.8.1 didn't fix it. More can be read on it at:
http://jvm-technology.blogspot.com/2012/08/mac-pro-users-experiencing-random-log .html
Does anyone have work around to use dual screen monitors with the system? I have two video cards, the article says to remove one. Has this worked for anyone? Can I use dual screens with the one video card. Before I go messing around with these type of things I just want to be sure that this is a real fix. For the price of the cards and the system I really can't believe apple has this issue in the first place and has not fixed it.

Self-hosted add-ons have to be fixed for every new version of Firefox. Two to 6 months for updating an add-on is ridiculous for a program which has a new version release every '''6 weeks'''. If that extension was hosted at the official Add-ons website, Mozilla would take take care of "bumping" that extension, as long as it keeps working, for every new version of Firefox, as the new version is released.
See this thread from yesterday, I posted instructions about how to "bump" that extension for Firefox 7.<br />
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/884484
You can also use this extension to "bump" an already installed extension for compatibility with the currently installed version of Firefox. <br />

Cannot Detect Video card (Radeon 6750m)

Dear sir,
I would like to know why my laptop cannot detect my video card (Radeon 6750m). It only shows the built in graphic card intel. I already try to use system restore and reset to original factory mode. It will appear but after updating my drivers and reboot my laptop. My laptop cannot detect again the video card.
Please help me resolve this problem,
for you reference

This question was solved.
View Solution.

You will have to enable the Radeon HD adapter by using the Catalyst Control Center.
Once you do that the adapter will appear in the Device manager.
If you are using the Intel HD graphics, only the Intel graphics will be seen in the Device Manager.
I know that may sound strange, but it is one of the pecularities of having a switchable graphics capable notebook.
The following URL goes to an overview of switchable graphics. Take a few minutes and read it. It should help make understanding it simpler.
http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv4-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5048648/model/5...
Do not instal the Intel graphics driver seperately!
Doing that breaks the switchable graphics feature.
Only install the HP ADM ATI graphics softpaq. It will install both drivers automatically and let you use the switchable graphics featrure og your notebook.

White screen with confetti on start-up and intermittent black screen . Video card failing?

Is the video card starting to go ? It is an early 2008 Imac . Keeps powering up but white screen with confetti for a few seconds on start-up . Display did also go black for about 5 minutes last week but also came back . I'm thinking video card degradation?

The most common cause is the MLB or GPU.
You can run the AHT (Apple Hardware Test) (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 OR http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11342) and see if that pulls up any results, otherwise, book an appointment online at your local Apple Retail Store free of charge, for a free assessment and diagnosis.

HP Phoenix Envy 810-209 Black Screen Video Card Fail

So about a month ago I purchased this computer mentioned in the title. A week after purchasing it, I had a problem in which while 10 minutes into playing a game my computer screen would go black and kick into power saving mode, the audio from the game would still back available for a short period then would just start to buzz. I did a clean reboot of my computer and reinstalled everything. Again, after another few weeks the exact same problem would occurr. After doing some research I realized that this computer may infact be designed to fail. This PC comes with an Nvidia GeForce 760 video card which requires a minimum 500w power supply to use; however, the PC only comes with a 460 w power supply. Meaning this PC is designed to fail if I'm not mistaken. If anyone has had a similar issue and found a software work around that would be fantastic!
Although, I am under the impression I purchased a doomed PC from the get go.

HP has its video cards made to work with the power supply unit (PSU) installed. Therefore, this should not be a problem. They are not the same as the same series retail card.

Laptop screen goes black when HDMI connected to TV

I have a Thinkpad Edge 431. I've set it up in Control Panel to duplicate both the laptop and the external monitor when connected by HDMI. It works fine.
When I connect it to my TV, the laptop screen black. The TV displays "No Signal" until the HDMI connection is made. When the laptop screen goes black, so does the TV screen. No sound or picture.
This was working fine until recently, and I can't figure out if I somehow changed settings to make this happen. It's clear that to me that the HDMI port on the laptop works, as does the cable.
The TV port works (I've switched the connection on the cable box to each HDMI port on the TV, to make sure they work).
I can't change anything in Control Panel when I connect the HDMI, because the screen is black.
I've updated the Lenovo system.
The other relevant piece of info: the Intel Graphics Card control panel says that Monitor/TV Settings are not supported (although until recently, I could easily display the computer on the TV).
Can anyone help with this? Thanks!

No video and audio signals to the tv connected
