HELP!! LCD is BLACK and NO VGA OUTPUT!!

So if the screen is black (No Faint Images) and I also can not output to VGA, does this mean my motherboard/video chipset is bad?
I'm assuming that if the screen is not functioning you at least can output to VGA. Right?
VGA output does not work so I would assume it's the motherboard by logic. Right?
Any opinions, experienced answers?

Although I can understand your anger and frustration you did agree that Apple were not responsible for what happened and that you down load the SW at your own risk. all of that is in the T+Cs when you update so Apple are not obliged to fix any thing.
If a PRAM and SMC did not fix it the machine may need to be seen by the Genius Bar Tech guys

  • Problem with lenovo t60 and the vga output

    I have a problem with the vga output and the lenovo t60
    When i put the videoprojector connector in to the lenovo t 60, the projector reponde is:
    Not supported
    H: 48.20khz   v: 143,10 hz
     On my desktop pc the projector function on 1024x768 resolution and the 60 hz to refresh.
    The same configurations are on my laptop and the projector doesn't function
    Please help me.

    I too have this problem. My T61 worked fine for about a year, and then suddenly would no longer project. I had made no changes to the settings for the external display, though since the problem started I've tried many combinations without success. Typically the projector reports that the frequency settings the laptop is sending are unsupported. In my case the vertical rate is usually correct (60 Hz) but the horizontal rate varies wildly.
    I suspect a hardware problem, as this post suggests: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/av-multimedia-relate​d/32128-laptop-wont-display-projector.html. (Note the message claiming that 6 out of 40 Lenovo laptops exhibited this problem.)
    Since my system is still under warranty I guess I'll have to get it repaired, but I'd rather hear of a software fix...

    Hi,
    I create a script file Test.sql, and type "run d:\test.sql" in ttisql's command prompt, but there is no output, not even any error messages.What SQL statements are in Test.sql? To see more verbose output from ttIsql, try increasing verbosity. The default is 2. The highest (most verbose) is 4.
    Command>verbosity;
    verbosity = 2
    Command> verbosity 4;
    The command succeeded.
    try to use "Prepare" and "Exec", still no outputTry adding a fetchone or fetchall command to retreive the result. e.g.

  • Need help with printing black and white pdf print at higher quality.

    We are a machine shop and many of our customers supply their prints for the tooling we need to make in .PDF file formats.  The problem is that some of the files are NOT of great quality.   They seem very faint.  I can view them on my computer no problem and when I zoom in, the quality is good, but whey they print, the dimensions and lines are very faint.   I have been pounding my head to come up with a way to improbe the quality in the following characteristics:  contrast, line quality, darker dimensions and lines, etc.   But I just cannot get anywhere.  Is there anyone that could give me some insight into how to do this.   If so, he or she would have my undying gratitude (which probably is not worth much, but sounds good!)
    The other thing is that some of our customers send their prints in .TIF or .TIFF file formats.  Is there any way to convert them to PDF and get good quality?  These .TIF and .TIFF files are a little worse than others. 
    Thanks ahead of time!

    I am going to try these suggestions immediately!  Thank you so much for the information. Wish me luck!

  • My iPhone 4s fell down and the LCD turned blue and black stripes line, is it still covered by the warranty?

    My iPhone 4s fell down and the LCD turned black and blue stripes and the warranty is still active.
    My question is, is it still covered by the Apple? How to fix it without changing the LCD?

    Accidental or wilful damage is not covered by Apple's standard or extended warranty. AppleCare + does cover this kind of damage for a small fee.
    When taking the phone to Apple for repair Apple will not replace the faulty part. They replace the whole phone. However some stores may offer screen replacements.

  • Satellite A210 (PSAELE) - VGA output not working

    Hello everybody,
    i've got an A200 PSAELE and I am trying to connect it to an external Monitor via VGA.
    The external Monitor is a Medion 19" Widescreen with a Resolution of 1440x900.
    The problem is, that I am not able to get the external display to work.
    I just get a "no signal" message on my external monitor.
    I tried various things, tried another VGA cable, another monitor (Benq FP93G X) and another driver.
    I am using Windows 7 Beta ans also tried to get it to work using Windows Vista Home Premium & Windows XP.
    In the "resolution settings", I tried using the "recognize displays" button.
    When i use it, there is a second image of a display displayed like a box.
    In this box, there is the following text: "Antoher display couldn't be recognized".
    Regardless of the settings I use (clone, span, ...) I can't get any image onto my second screen.
    I tried changing some BIOS-Settings without success and made a BIOS-Upadte to Version 2.00, same problem.
    I also tried switching to the external monitor via "Fn + F5", but nothing happens onto the second screen.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    I tested two more things:
    -> I downgraded to the Toshiba Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit drive, which works on Windows 7 as well. There in the Catalyst Control Center I've got the "Displays Manager" section, which I don't have with the release drivers.
    But even there, when I click on "dectect displays", nothing happens.
    When I press the Windows-key and "P", a display opens, where I can select how to use the external VGA out, but when I e.g. select "clone", the resolution on the laptop-screen changes, but there still is no signal on the external monitor.
    -> I tested the laptop with a real CRT analog monitor, but I didn't get any further.
    But I have got the sneaking suspicion, that I've got a conflict with the HDMI / VGA version of the A210 laptop.
    I know that there are a few laptops with an HDMI output and a few with a VGA output.
    I checked my audi-devices and found an entry named "HDMI-Audio-Out".
    Isn't that strange, because my laptop doesn't have HDMI connector?
    Probably I've got a Mainboard/Graphics-card combo, which has got a HDMI port and no VGA output and which was designed for a HDMI-A210?
    Could something like this be possible?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Lexmark C54x - True Black and White Printing

    As shipped this 1200dpi color laser printer - C543dn works with Leopard over a network (yes!).
    There is only one thing I wanted to do that was not obvious - how to force black and white even when printing originally color images, and make sure only the black toner is used. A lot of websites use color, of course, and you may not want to pay for that either in time or toner!! As you probably all know the quartz filter option has been removed in Leopard, so unlike "another OS" you don't have a simple printer-independent "print mode" setting to set to black and white.
    After a lot of looking around for a manual which details the printer driver options (there isn't one - confirmed by Lexmark support) this is what I have puzzled out. BTW - There is an alternative approach that involves saving to pdf, and then using preview to resave the pdf with the quartz filter applied - but this is simpler if all you want to do is print.
    Basic stuff - Printer Independent
    You have to do the set up within "Print..." within in an application (like Firefox or Safari). When you select a Printer in the print dialog you can also use a Preset - it appears in the field under the printer name in the print dialog. To set up the profile the way we want it, first use the "downarrow" to the right of the printer name to access the extra print dialog options.
    Now you need to get the Mac to turn everything color in the output to gray - you do this by finding the "Color Matching" option -- its in a pull-down list (half-way down the expanded dialog, in some applications that list starts with the app name (like "Mail"), sometimes its in a list that starts with "Copies and Pages" - each application chooses how this page looks, adding to the confusion). Inside that option, you select "ColorSync" radio button and find the "Generic Gray Profile" in the pulldown. This is the replacement for the quartz filter. But that doesn't mean the printer will only use Black toner... that would be too easy!
    Printer Dependent bit - in this case Lexmark C543.
    Now move to the "Printer Features" options (also in the list that has "Color Matching") and a new sub-list pulldown will appear - for the Lexmark it has "Quality 1" as the first option.
    - In this sublist select "Quality 1" - set the Resolution field to 1200 dpi.
    - Then select "Color" (still in the sublist) and set the Color Correction field to "Manual".
    - Finally go to the "Manual Color" in the sublist and set all 3 of the RGB fields (Image, Text and Graphics) to "Display - True Black".
    After doing all those settings, go to the Preset field pulldown (the one under the printer name at the top) and select Save As... Give it a nice name (Black and White, perhaps?). This way you can recall this preset and all the settings easily. For color you can just go back to the Standard preset.
    Now you can print your monochrome masterpiece.
    This way I definitely got black and white (grayscale output). Verifying that only black toner was used is not a slam-dunk but it looks like it was. Anyone who has better info on the printer driver and the correct settings (maybe this was overkill even?) please feel free to correct/enhance.
    Hope this helps someone else.

    I really like the printer. It is fast, and it was a breeze setting it up as a network printer. Built in duplex is also very cool.
    The only drawback is that it uses a lot of toner, which gets expensive. So far I have gone through two black cartridges printing a little over 3000 pages. According to Lexmark, one cartridge is supposed to last 2500 pages, so that doesnt seem right. The pages I have been printing haven´t been THAT full.
    But maybe this applies to other brands as well? This is the only color laser printer I have owned.
    Anyone else with experience on this? I have been looking for toner refills, but so far no luck..

    Hey sinfulslave,
    Could you please let me know what version of Acrobat are you using.
    For Acrobat XI, you might choose 'Advanced' under Printer Properties and enable 'Print all Text as Black' option.
    Refer the below mentioned KB doc link as well if that might help:

    Let me know.

    Ive read some posts and i only found the tip to change from auto to Composite output but i dont get signal in TV when i do this...
    whats the solution?
    Thanks!

    Hmmm... This seems to be on your VGA codecs vs your Sony Tv Support now... I think you should posts in the VGA forum since they are more familiar with the TV Outputs...
    I can help you move the thread over and leave a link here if you want .

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a projector, which has a VGA cable. I bought a VGA to HDMI adapter, but whenever I hook it up, the screen on my macbook just goes black and I can't make it do anything else or even show up on the projector.

    I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a projector, which has a VGA cable. I bought a VGA to HDMI adapter, but whenever I hook it up, the screen on my macbook just goes black and I can't make it do anything else or even show up on the projector.
    My laptop is still on; it just has a black screen that I can't get rid of without shutting down the computer by holding the power button.

    Hey there lynmrigg,
    It sounds like have an HDMI to VGA adapter connecting your MacBook Pro and your projector but the screen on your computer goes black and no image appears on the projector. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help resolve or isolate the issue here, named:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • Converting Word files to pdf- Output is black and white

    Hello -
    I recently updated the Adobe 9.0 Reader on my computer and now when I try to convert a Word file with pictures and/or difffent colors of fonts to a pdf the output is ALL black and white.  I've seen some people here on the forum saying their printer caused the problem, but I have not changed printers and this same Xerox printer worked before.  Plus, I am not even printing the files yet - just looking at them in Adobe Reader - and they are in black and white.  This never happened before.
    Any ideas?  Need help!

  • Help! My iPad's screen is black and unresponsive, but when I plug it in I can hear it make the noise it normally would. I'm unsure what to do and I've been looking all over the internet for solutions and so far none are working.

    As I mentioned, the screen is black and unresponsive. However when ever I plug it into either my charger or my lap top it will make the expected sounds, it also [when plugged into my computer] opens up iTunes how ever the device can't be seen on the side bar. So far to resolve the issue I've tried.
    - Attempting to turn it on
    - A reset using the home/sleep button and the power button
    - Plugging it into my computer to see if I can get it working through iTunes [Which so far is fruitless]
    - Holding 3 fingers down in the screen in case my screen curtain was enabled [Nothing happened with that either]
    - Putting it face down over my knee and slapping the back in case a cable was lose [Done this repeatedly and nothing happened]
    I don't know what's wrong with it and I've been searching for solutions for about 2-3 hour's now. I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me as I would like to go through as many options as possible before trying to take it into the apple store.
    [Side note I had also just updated my iPad two nights before the problems began to occur to the iOS 8 technology.My version of iPad is the iPad 2 with 16GB of memory. I'm not sure how much information will be relevant but I'll give as much as possible is someone is able to help me.]

    Apple does not replace screens and your iPad is clearly out of warranty, not that accidental damage would be covered anyway.  If you want to try to have your iPad fixed, there are 3rd party repair centers you can try.  In your google search bar type the following:
    "ipad repair "xxxxx"
    Put your city in the "xxxx"  for example, "tampa, fl"
    There will likely be some options you could investigate.
    Or, you could sell your iPad, even damaged to Gazelle.com and get yourself a shiny new iPad.  And if you do, make sure you add AppleCare+ for $99.  This not only increases your Apple technical support for two full years, but would get you up to two iPad replacements at $49 each.
