IdeaCentre A310: Screen's gone crazy

I've been using my A310 for 7 months without any problems but suddenly the screen's gone crazy. The touch controls (on the bottom right hand side of the screen) don't respond to touch any more, but the on-screen menu for managing the display keeps popping up and making random changes to the screen settings. I've downloaded and installed the video driver on the Lenovo support site but it doesn't help. Any suggestions?? It's making the machine entirely unusable (not least because it occasionally chooses to switch the display off for periods of up to an hour!!).
Any help or suggestions gratefully received, before I send it back under warranty.......

hey Benj11,
try uninstalling the video drivers, let Windows install its generic drivers and update the bios.
if these does not resolve it send it to the service center

Ideacentre A310 Screen is Blank

I have an A310 Ideacentre. Two nights ago it was working perfectly, then yesterday morning the screen is blank.
On the left the bluetooth, wifi and disk icons come on and off, plus I can access shared media on the PC from other devices on my network, so it obviously is working. On the right bottom of the screen however the lights that are usually there are absent. I regularly use an HDMI connection from my work supplied laptop to use the Ideacentre screen and I use the screen when using my PC for personal use obviously. 6 months ago I had to get a replacement screen fited.

Screen colors gone crazy. Help!

Hello!
I was browsing the web on my 32gb wifi ipad and suddently the colors start to loose their normal "smoothness" and become more solid and saturated, like on a old pc. This whole system is like that now, apps and video included. If i reset it, I'll get a few moments back to normal but then it all becomes all saturated again.
Thanks

May be a hardware problem. To check:
- first restore from backup via iTunes ad see if that resolves the problem
- Next is to restore to factory new via iTunes. If that fixes problems then try restoring from backup.
- If problem returns than again restore to factory new and manually rebuild your iPad.
- If none of those solves problem then call AppleCare/go to Genius in an Apple store.

My playbook has gone crazy(screen and control)

Display gone crazy

I've got a HP2605dn and it works great up to today. The display has gone crazy. Is there a hard reset for the printer to resent it's memory?

Looks as if you've a graphics card and/or screen problem - I would lean more towards the GPU.
You should take the machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them evaluate the problem. This diagnosis should be free as should an estimate for repair (if you're not still under warranty).
Good luck,

My screen has gone and i need to back up pics, is there anyway way i can?

Please help! My phone broke 5 weeks ago, sent it of to b fixed and come back working etc.

When i plug it into my laptop to transfer all the pics it doesnt let me as i need to unlock it but the phone wont let me do it (as the screen has gone) so is there another way to connect it to my laptop and transfer pictures or could apple access my data?? I really need to get the pictures off of my baby as there is LOADS and dont want to lose em.

Try and do a hard reset by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button and then turning it back on
If that does not work you have to do a restore unfortunately

My iPod Touch 4G's screen has gone white and has lines on the screen. How do I fix it? Help!

Hello everyone,
I've had an iPod Touch 4th generation for a few years now, and, today, for the first time, the screen has gone white and their are vertical lines on it. What happened was I accidentally dropped my iPod Touch on tile and it landed on its back. I tried it out right afterwards to see if it was still working and it seemed like it was perfectly fine. Later on, I got an email from one of my friends, so I slid the email button on the lock screen to see the email. In the email, there was a link to a gif image, so I opened it in Safari. After I was done with it, I closed that tab. I also had a second tab open from earlier, so I wanted to close that tab as well. When I clicked on the button to see all tabs and close one, the screen completely froze. I held on to the on/off button on the top of the iPod, and, after about a minute, the screen switched to a completely white screen with lines on it. I've tried holding onto the on/off button again and it doesn't work. I also tried plugging it into my Windows 7 computer and opening iTunes, but my computer doesn't even recognized it is plugged in. It won't appear under the "computer" section in Windows Explorer, which will allow me to do USB-related tasks with it. iTunes doesn't recognize that it is plugged in either, so I can't do anything like restore the iPod to factory settings. The home button on my iPod hasn't been working for a while so i've always been using the accessibility feature that gives me a home button on the screen. Now that I can't access that, I can't hold down both the on/off button and the home button at the same time. What should I do? Should I send it in to Apple for repairs (which I won't do and would rather buy a new iPod Touch)? I am thinking of just leaving it to, hopefully, have the battery drain and the iPod would die. Then, I could charge it and see what happens. Other than that, i'm just clueless right now and I have no idea what I should do. Please help me!
My iPod Touch is an iPod Touch 4th generation model with 8GB. It is running iOS 5.1.1.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT201263 My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine, but when I went back the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. What should I do?

My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine earlier, but when I went back a few hours later, the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. I thought it just needed to be charged but there seems to be a larger issue now. What should I do?

Let your ipod die. Then when it is dead charge it adn turn it back on. After that it should be fine.

I was messing with the computer, not sure what i hit but now all my toolbars at the top of the screen are gone? (file, edit, history, tools and my forward and back button). Please help me get these settings back to the way they were?

My file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, and help buttons at the top of the screen are gone, along with my forward and back button.

For details of how to restore it, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/menu+bar+is+missing
Once the menu bar is restored, you can use the Toolbars entry in the View menu to restore other toolbars such as the navigation toolbar.

My ipad screen has gone black but I can still touch the screen and unlock it and do things. I don't know what's wrong can someone help

My ipad screen has gone black and I don't know what to do the screen still works and I can still unlock it and I can still type. But I don't know what to do can anyone help me it will be much appreciated

If the reset doesn't do it then it's possible that the backlight or another part of your screen has broken. Unfortunately it's not really user servicible. I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out. If your device is still under warranty and they don't determine that the damage was the result of 'abuse or neglect' (their words) then it could be a free replacement.
I'd just do a backup before you take it in, just in case.

Not inexpensive, you should decide whether it's worth doing, or upgrading to a new machine, yours is no longer supported, and neither are there any new apps that will work on it. It may be time to bite the bullet and get a new one, you can look in the Apple Store refurbished section for good deals.

have you tried charging the device ?
if so and it still does not work you can try a Forced Recovery..
by holding the HOME button down and plugging it into your computer at the same time..

How do you change a brush tool color in Photoshop13. The color chart that has always been on the right side of the screen is gone and I cannot find out how to turn it on

I now have the pallete on the right side of my screen. But, I am unable to change the color of the brush. I move the eye dropper over red and click on it. A panel comes saying 'Pure Red', I click ok but the brush color does not change.
