G510 shows display as "pnp generic" it's supposed to be LED BACKLIT

hello, i had windows 7 installed on my g510 and the monitor had showed up LED BACKLIT , but when i installed windows 8.1 pro it now shows the monitor as "PNP generic" instead of LED BACKLIT ? and i lost the brightness of the screen and most of the videos and movies are not so good, is there any solution for this , please?

hi poumsae,
Welcome to the Forums.
It's possible that the display driver that's being detected on the machine is the Windows 8.1 inbox driver. You can verify this  if one of the display adapters is set to Microsoft Basic Display Adapter under Device Manager > Display Adapters.
  - Sample image
Things that you can try:
1. Run and install all Windows Updates to get the latest patch and fixes for the OS.
2, If you have an Intel+AMD GPU, navigate to the Control Panel (icon views) > Programs and Features and uninstall both the Intel and AMD display driver and reboot. When finished, re-install the Intel driver first followed by the AMD Display driver and observe.
Intel Video Driver for Windows 8.1 (32-bit, 64-bit)
AMD Video Driver for Windows 8.1 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Let me know how it goes.
Regards

  • X220 shows display name as "Generic PnP Monitor", it's supposed to be IPS.

    I ordered an X220 with IPS long time ago.
    I remember seeing a while ago the name as "Wide viewing angle & High density FlexView Display 1366 x 768" but now that I see this "Generic PnP Monitor" I am not sure if it was my imagination or infact the name of the monitor changed in the device manager.
    I checked the Hardware Ids and it is MONITOR\LEN40E2, and googled a bit about that and looks like it's an IPS panel anyway.
    So why the change of name? or is this really a cheap TN panel? Lenovo sent me a X220 with wrong display configuration?
    I am confused 

    you have an IPS display.   most likely your monitor INF file was overwritten, perhaps by windows update or a manual change.
    you can reinstall it using the file here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-62923

  • Firefox Quick Launch Icon is displayed as a "Generic Icon"

    I have Windows 7 x64. When I first install firefox and create a quick launch icon, it shows as the normal firefox logo. After restarting my pc it is displayed as the generic looking blank file icon. The shortcut does still open firefox despite the icon image. I am unable to fix it by going into the shortcut properties and changing the icon image. The option to do so is there but it does not change when I attempt. The shortcut is definitely of firefox.exe and not a shortcut of a shortcut or anything. If I reinstall firefox the icon goes back to normal... until I restart pc again. Same computer was running vista x86 and had no issues with quick launch and firefox.

    sorry,i can't get it
    i meant with the exe file my application that doesn't run on startup by default
    and the bat file makes my program run at startup,
    and i want my program to run at startup,so i guess i need both of them?
    so what do you mean by need only one of them?please give me some explanation,iam beginner
    and simply i want to make setup package that installs the jar file,lib folder to program files
    and make the program run at startup!what installer should i use?

  • Icon for Desktop Shows Up as a Generic Icon in the Places Sidebar

    Noticed yesterday that the icon for the Desktop showed up as a generic icon in the Places Sidebar. I have tried resetting the PRAM, repaired the Hard Disk and Permissions using the Disk Utility and deleted the com.apple.desktop.plist pref in my user library. I also checked my Admin account I use for troubleshooting and the desktop icon was fine in that account. Not sure what else to do. Not a big deal but just wanted to make sure that it is not a sign of bigger things to come. Maybe the MBP knows I'm thinking of trading it in for a new model, LOL.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.
    Tom

    Wow. That's stunning. I don't really know why it works, but it does. Apparently when you paste something on top of the icon in the sidebar, and remove it, it refreshes itself and somehow remembers the original icon?
         I deleted something and had several blank white icons in the sidebar, so I removed them and restored by pulling them back on from my home folder. Everything worked except the Desktop. First it was the blank white icon. Then I pulled it from my home folder and it was a plain blue icon with the generic page symbol, such as a standard Documents folder icon. Then I fiddled with it and pulled it over again and it changed to the generic blue desktop icon you see in the home folder. Last I tried your step of just pasting the generic desktop icon over it and undo-ing that paste, and viola!
         Many thanks for sharing. I could have forced myself to live with the generic, but it wouldn't have been the same, and not truly satisfactory, as it wasn't back the way I started. Insert applause.

  • Firefox doesn't show/display my addressbook within my hotmail account anymore. Cookies/Cashe has been emptied already, result is the same.

    Firefox doesn't show/display/load my addressbook within my hotmail account anymore, it worked previously well, so has nothing to do with the change from hotmail to outlook. Since a week or so, I realized a slowness in loading my recently used addresses with opening a new e-mail, but it was still working from time to time. For a few days, it has been stopped working, complete addressbook doesn't load anymore, just displays the load circle in the middle of the screen, apart from that I have only a white page. Cache and Cookies already emptied/deleted, result is the same. No settings have been changed, but have the same issue with Internet Explorer, but it's working with Chrome. For testing, I deactivated my firewall and anti virus (Comodo), but the result was still the same. I would appreciate if I could get it working again here. Every suggestion is welcome here

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Qosmio X500-014 (LED Backlit Display)

    Hello all, quick question here.
    Just picked up my new Qosmio X500-014, although I'm quite satisfied with this machine I wish this particular model had the LED Backlit Display for the keypad.
    Would it be possible to buy the correct Backlit keypad and swap it for the one in my mcahine? Or are there other components required as well?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for reply Dr.Lamp.
    I did take the time to call Toshiba today and was told that I have a canadian model with multilingual keypad no backlighting. (Qosmio X500-014 Mfr. Part Number: PQX33C-01400N). They also told me that they do not carry nor sell parts for these laptops, any advice as to weather a backlit keypad would be compatible with my model is inconclusive. They did however give me the number to there parts supplier:
    National Parts Depot (1-800-524-8338)
    Speaking with a Rep at National Parts Depot I was told they do not carry parts for the canadian versions, only the US versions. They do not have any reference to the X500 version only the X505 version.
    Now I`m confused, is the X500 canadian only and the X505 the US variant? This may explain why all the models I see here in Canada have the same multilingual keypad with no lighting? (not sure)
    So I decided to take things a step further and gave them the part number to a US model that has the English only LED backlit keypad . (Qosmio X505-Q850 Mfr. Part Number: PQX33U-00L00H). NPD won`t give me the part numbers for the keypad, but does have availability for $90.00 US funds, no guarantee that the LED lighting will work with my model number but should physically fit into my X500.
    So, I guess I need to find the parts supplier for Canada and see what they have to say, if all else fails I may just take the $90 dollar gamble on the keypad for the X505 and see what happens, worst case I can always resell it on Ebay.
    I`ll keep this thread updated with any findings, thanks.

    Can you tell me why you don't think its a good buy? Someone bought it that must have thought it was a good buy? You?!!!
    I had a macbook pro, spilled an entire latte on it. Cannot afford to drop another 1500 on a new one. I understand the air is a great machine. And for someone that is hard on equipment (aside from liquid!) with no moving parts its a better option. This one is priced at $929 - good?

  • X230 with 12.5 Premium HD LED Backlit Display - no webcam?

    Hello,
    I'm interested in the Thinkpad X230. I read some test and all of them mention two kind of display panels (TN and IPS) and recommend to choose the IPS panel.
    I tried to configure my X230 on shop.lenovo.com. But whenever I select the "12.5 Premium HD (1366x768) LED Backlit" display (I assume that this is the IPS display) there is only "no camera" as option for a web cam. If I opt for an non premium display I can select a  720-P-HD camera.
    So I'm a little bit confused. Isn't it possible to get the premium display together with a camera?
    Maybe I should add that I'm from Germany and used the German shop page, because sometimes there are different models for different countries.
    Thanks!

    Hmmm,  on the US site, there are four display options.  2 HD and 2 HD premium.  They all  offer a camera option except the HD premium with 3x3 antenna.
    Do you see something similar on the German site?

  • How much does it cost to replace a 13.3-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit glossy widescreen display on a mac os extended journaled 2008 silver backing and black inner lip

    how much does it cost to replace a 13.3-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit glossy widescreen display on a mac os extended journaled 2008 silver backing and black inner lip

    A lot depends on if you are having Apple do the replacement or an authorized repair or another source.  The Apple prices seem to run in the neighborhood of $500, some have posted prices as low as $200 from un-authorized sources.
    Check with an Apple store or authorized service first so you have a reference point...and be sure to take into consideration the confidence you feel in the repair facility, you often get what you pay for.

  • Images not showing in Mail, just generic JPG icon...

    I have this problem with Mail (v3.6, Leopard 10.5.8) not displaying images in html messages anymore. The problem is mostly with the emails i'm sending. Back on Tiger, you could drag and drop an image and it would show inline right there where your cursor would be in the message. Now it goes at the bottom, showing the generic Preview.app JPG icon with the name and size of the file underneath the icon. If I try to compose a message using on of Apple's stationaries, half of the images are not showing, instead once again giving me the generic icon. I do have the option of displaying HTML images turned on in the prefs. A picture is worth a thousand words, so here it is :
    http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/25424/mail_problem.jpg
    If I send this to friends, half of them get a correct looking email while the other half gets missing images where the original image was showing as an icon for me. Trying to save the email message as a PDF will have missing images too.
    What's going on here? Thanks!!!

    Same problem here. Some background images show up, top, bottom and corner images not. Opening the 'content.html' file in Safari: no problem.
    No idea what's going on.

  • My lenovo g510 shows black screen every time I power it on but the power lights are on .

    Every time I power on my laptop it shows black screen.but fan is running and power lights are on. After detaching and reattaching battery several times onece screen turns on and laptop then works smoothly.but after shutting it down again on next day same problem persists. I have already tried power drain out method.but on the next go same problems arises.what to do.

    Hi Anish1,
    Welcome to the Forums  
    As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with black screen in your Lenovo G510 laptop.
    As you have mentioned that black screen when turned on, can you hear the windows login sound?
    Remove the battery and connect only adapter and check for the issue also connect only battery and check for the issue.
    Connect an external monitor and check if the display appears in the external monitor then its a issue with the LCD, if there is no display in the external monitor then it might be issue with the motherboard, hence suggest you to visit the nearest authorised service centre.
    Click here for the service centre and select your region.
    Best regards,
