L850 Black screen but ok on external ?

Hi everyone,Got an issue that if in the biosBios-Advanced-System Configuration-Boot Mode = CSM  the LCD screen remains black on boot.How ever if you plug in an external monitor you get full display on external only.If you change it Bios-Advanced-System Configuration-Boot Mode to UEFI Boot you get the LCD working again. WHy is this? I want to boot windows 7 instead of 8 and it wont load under UEFI. I have done a full reset of the bios to default and even removed the CMOS Battery, but i get no joy  Anyone can help me ? 

OK peoples, heres a link to a video i made showing the problem and how windows 8 and 7 will do a fresh install but bios will not display on LCD when in CSM mode.  https://youtu.be/lhsNk4Cn7Dg

  • Black screen but still powers external hard drive

    I have two Cinema Displays, not thunderbolt, hooked to a new iMac 27". I took the first one to an Apple Authorised Repair Center and was told that either the logic board or power adapter were shot. The monitor is too old for them to get parts from Apple, so I went and bought a used one from ebay a year ago. Now this monitor just went black while I was working on it. It still powers an external hard drive that appears on my imac, and the light on the front still pulseates.
    Both these monitors are the chrome edged 23" HD displays. One is an 07' and the other 11' neither are thunderbolt and neither have a camera. Any ideas. My Apple authorised tech shop said i can have the later one replaced by apple for $670. I don't want to spend that much when I only paid $350 off ebay. If it was just the power adapter I would buy just that, but who knows?

    …and I suspect you want some clairvoyant or mind reader to guess all the details and specs of your setup?

    I'm betting that it was originally Partitioned with Snow Leopard.
    As a test I just added a second Partition with Mountain Lion to a FireWire HD and it would not let me Install Snow Leopard from my System or Retail Disc into the Partition.

  • Ipod touch wont turn on i tried restoring it but every time i do it just says its waiting for the ipod to respond. meanwhile my ipod is no longer a black screen but the apple logo with a loading bar underneath that after leaving for 8 hours hasnt moved.

    my ipod touch wont turn on ive tried restoring it but every time i do it just says its waiting for the ipod to respond. meanwhile my ipod is no longer a black screen but the apple logo with a loading bar underneath that after leaving for 8 hours hasnt moved.

    Try:
    - Another cable
    - Another USB port
    - Reboot the computer
    - 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 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.

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • After an iPad update yesterday I sent a video and it is not viewable just black screen but sound is there. I sent it to my windows 7 laptop and there it is not viewable at all the start button appears crossed through.only works on apple PC

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

    Ok I checked and unchecked the playback via camera yesterday and I got black screen both times.
    I could delete the imovie prefs when I go over there today.
    I'll try another FW cable but it worked perfectly for importing but what the heck I've got one I'll try it.
    Yes camera was set to play and not record.
    Plenty of free space -- 131 GB.
    I'm pretty sure it's in NTSC DV format, but it's someone else's computer so it could have been changed by someone screwin' around not knowing what they're doing making changes.

  • IPhone 6 black screen but works

    After getting to work, I come to find out that my iPhone 6 has a black screen. Before that time, it worked just fine until I took it out of my pocket later this morning. The phone shows a black screen, but the buttons still work (the mute switch works; every time I mute it the phone vibrates). I tried connecting it to iTunes and it shows the phone. I assume that the screen has been bricked. I previously had a time where my phone was covered in rain water. That also explain why I have been experiencing crashes on my phone which led me to doing a hard restart. I have the choice of taking it back to my carrier as I'm still under warranty or I can try find out and fix this bug myself.
    Any Suggestions?
    Many thanks
    iPhone 6 running the latest iOS

    IIf you did a reset and screen remained black then it's a hardware issue, not a bug. You should return it under warranty if you still can. Any other attemp to fix on your own is probably going to void your warranty. 

  • Black Screen BUT Backlight Works and External Display OK

    Black screen is persistent (i.e. no pixel data) but I can see the shimmer of the backlight on, just all the pixels are black. I replaced the inverter (661-4112) and it worked again for a couple weeks, now back to the same old black screen.
    It seems the backlight burning out is common, but this I have never seen before. If it were the integrated video card broken, you'd think an external monitor wouldn't work, but it does.
    Any ideas ladies and gentlemen?

    This is a shot in the dark.  Try a SMC and Pram resets:

  • I was trying to extent monitor, I get black screen on laptop and external monitor :/

    so I have this hdmi cable that plugs into the DVI on my external monitor.
    I did get the screen to show up just on the external monitor and that's it.  Now, when I boot up my lap top I get black screen on both monitors.  Uh oh.
    I've unpugged the  monitor, batter, all that stuff.
    I think it's possible I clicked on don't display external monitor or something, but not it's not displaying anywhere.
    I have an idea pad of some sorts w/ windows 8.  I don't think it's 8.1
    thanks

    so I got this resolved.  the guy at the computer store hit f10 and then enter.  he did this while the screen was black
    shouldnt' it just detect that there's not an external monitor?  but even when there was a monitor connected, both screens were black.

  • IPod nano (5th Generation) Black Screen but still plays Music

    Problem:
    I see a black screen and no backlit normal screen - there's a faint Apple Logo when the device is turned on.
    I can navigate the scroll wheel and hear the audible "clicks" when circling the scroll wheel.
    I can push play and it will play music just fine. FF, Rewind, Menu, Play/pause all work correctly.
    Tried the following:
    Menu + Select + held down for 5-10 seconds.  faint apple logo dissapppears then I push Play and it re-appears.  Still plays music just fine but screen still black with faint apple logo and no back light.
    Restore Factory Settings via iTunes.  It erased all media.  put a song on there to test.  can play song but same issue (no back light OS, just  black + faint apple logo on the display)
    Tried Rewind + select to enter diagnostics - nothing happens, same issue
    Please help.

  • My ipod is showing a black screen, but will charge and make the notification noises. Any ideas on how to fix it

    My Ipod touch is just showing a black screen, it still charges and the notifictions still go off because I can hear them. It wont turn onto the lock screen it just stays black. I tryed letting the battery run down and left it for like 24 hours but nothing changed

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
