Lenovo E535 blank display but works with external VGA

I have a Lenovo E535 where the LCD display is completely blank. It works with an external screen connected to the VGA port. Using the F6 key to toggle between displays makes no difference. The AMD Vision Engine Control Centre only detects the external display. The Lenovo hardward tests do not detect any problems with graphics.
So I thought it must be a problem with the LCD panel itself and I have replaced it. The new one does not work either (so that was a waste of money!)
Does anyone have any ideas on what to try next?

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
Have you tried booting the computer into the BIOS Setup to see if there is a screen display?  That would circumvent any operating system related problems.
Other possibilities...... Bad video cable.  A used one on eBay would be a cheap thing to try. Less than $10 (U.S.)  Especially if the laptop you are working on had loose hinge problems or is frequently opened and closed.
A bad LCD replacement is another possibility.

  • Blackcreen but works with external monitor

    Hi, I need help with my moms notebook its HP not sure about the model but it's definitely one of those old ones.
    so she was restarting her NB probabbly by taking the power cable off. Now the notebook wont load just blackscreen so I tried few usual stuff like taking the battery and power cable off and press power button for a minute and it didnt help so i decided to connect external monitor and both of them turned on even the notebook screen. however as soon i turn on her notebook without extra monitor there is blackscreen again.

    Hi @gcko ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I saw your posts regarding the black screen. There isn't a whole of troubleshooting available when we can't get into the operating system or even the BIOS. Since you have already tried a Hard Reset with the battery then you will need to give us call as this is a hardware issue. You can reach HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or start here if you live outside of North America.

  • External Display not working with MacBook Pro 13" (early 2011)

    I just bought the current MacBook Pro 13" (i7 processor). My external display (Benq 20"W, 1600x1050) always says "No Signal Detected!". I've tried it with a DVI-Adapter (Griffin Video Display Converter) and with a VGA-Adapter (LMP Mini DisplayPort-VGA-Adapter). With lower resolution I once got a picture (but with weird lines). On my old MacBook (white, 2.16 Ghz) there was never a problem with this display (also OS X 10.6.6). Who can help?

    Check this post if you want more info:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2774718
    The gist is that DVI is currently very iffy through Thunderbolt. Mini display -> mini display OR mini display -> HDMI should work fine. It's most likely not your adapter itself but the fact that it's DVI.
    If you can, get a mini display -> HDMI adapter and try that (assuming your external has HDMI).
    I should hear back tomorrow or Monday from apple engineers with more specific info about this issue and I will update then.
    BTW- DVI anywhere in the chain will make things fail. Mini Display -> DVI and a DVI/HDMI cable won't work with any reliability (I've tested it on three completely different monitors).

  • How to make AEC work with external webcam?

    Hi everyone.
    What I'm trying to do is to make AEC work with external webcams. My target: flash in browser and desktop AIR app.
    I have the following situations:
    1. Laptop Lenovo S400, really not the best laptop, with MIC placed right above the speakers. But... AEC works excellent!
    2. PC with Logitech 1080p webcam (which has stereo microphones) and external speakers. But... AEC doesn't work at all. It even doesn't try to reduce any speakers sound in microphone data.
    3. The same laptop with connected Logitech camera and again - AEC doesn't work.
    In each situation I use absolutaly the same environment(Win7, target player - 11.9, Flex 4.6.0 SDK), code, compiller, etc..
    And I was unable to find any info for such situation.
    Does anybody have experience with such problem? I will be really grateful for any help.
    Here are parts of code:
    //  somwhere early...
    _microphone = Microphone.getEnhancedMicrophone();
    //  called before we attach microphone to NetStream
    private function _setMicrophoneMode():void
                _microphone.setLoopBack(false);
                _microphone.framesPerPacket = 1;
                _microphone.setSilenceLevel(0, 2000);
                _microphone.codec = SoundCodec.SPEEX;
                _microphone.encodeQuality = 10;
                _microphone.gain = 50;
                _microphone.rate = 44;
                if (_useEchoSuppression)
                var options:MicrophoneEnhancedOptions = _microphone.enhancedOptions;
                options.mode = MicrophoneEnhancedMode.HALF_DUPLEX;// using this for external webcams
                options.echoPath = 128;
                options.nonLinearProcessing = true;
                _microphone.enhancedOptions = options;
                } else
                    _microphone.setUseEchoSuppression(true);
                    trace(_microphone);

    I think that with the current state of the Adobe AIR Adobe FLash platforms, there is too much work to do to get echo cancellation to work on all platforms, and to get video to work as expected too. I think Adobe could solve many of these issues by implementing native WebRTC into the AIR platform, see this post here:

  • Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009?

    Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009 (mini display port? The image passes through the mini display port to the monitor, but the connections (Firewire, USB, ethernet) do not work. Can you confirm?

    I'd love to get confirmation if this is the case too.   I was all ready to buy the new iMac until I found I couldn't use it as an external monitor for my DisplayPort-based MacBook Pro.  And then I was all ready to buy the new display.
    I really hope Apple hasn't restricted this to purely Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. I know I'll end up upgrading my MacBook at some point but I can't do so just yet, and this means I'll have to go for some third-party display, camera, speakers etc for the new Mac Mini which is crazy.

  • How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

    How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:    MacBookPro6,1
      Processor Name:    Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:    2.8 GHz
      Number of Processors:    1
      Total Number of Cores:    2
      L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
      L3 Cache:    4 MB
      Memory:    8 GB
      Processor Interconnect Speed:    4.8 GT/s
      Boot ROM Version:    MBP61.0057.B0F
      SMC Version (system):    1.57f18

    You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

  • HP 4330s SRS Premium Sound not working with External Speakers

    And this is my second topic and rant!
    The SRS Premium sound driver doesn't work with USB Speakers.
    It doesn't work with Bluetooth speakers either!
    In other words it only works with the Laptop speakers.
    ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
    SRS Premium sound for Deeper Bass and Clear sound enhancement bla bla bla now in you HP Laptop
    but ONLY with your LAPTOP SPEAKERS!
    ARE YOU KIDDING ME!
    DEEP BASS on these cell phone speakers!!! Really???
    Why doesn't the SRS Premium Sound driver work with external speakers!
    I believe I have used SRS Sandbox before and ALL THE SOUND was directed to that driver and it worked with everything!
    WHY DOESN'T YOUR HP DRIVER WORK WITH EXTERNAL SPEAKERS!
    Is everyone in HP a bloody RETARD?
    FIX YOUR DRIVERS!
    End of rant!

    Oh BTW {Content Removed: rant} http://www.srslabs.com/landing.aspx?id=693#23
    23. Will the SRS Audio Sandbox work with my USB speakers or Bluetooth speakers?
    Yes, the current version, 1.6.6.0 will work. If you have a previous version that is not working with these speakers, please upgrade to this version.
    Do you have anything else to share with me {Content Removed: rant}

  • HT201250 My 10.7.3 Time Machine won't work with external disks. Worked fine with Snow Leopard, and even Lion 10.7.1

    My 10.7.3 Time Machine won't work with external disks. Worked fine with Snow Leopard, and even Lion 10.7.1
    I have tried everything, even buy new external disk from different manufacture.
    If I cant get a fix soon, I am downgrading back to SnowL.

    Still no luck. I tried all the tricks, reconfiguring TM (remove selected disk option, and re-setting it, and trying different disks). Tried new combo updater, and the newer TM update after that. Tired two different disks too (one is my older firewire WD MyBook 1TB, and my brand new 3tb Seagate GoFlex USB... either one plugged into back of computer - no intermediary devices). I did get the TM buddy wiget and it produced the following log, from the last attempt, where I setup lots of exclusions so that backup quantity was small (under 10gb). Still it failed to complete. Here is that log, for what it is worth:
    Starting standard backup
    Backing up to: /Volumes/TM-Disk/Backups.backupdb
    9.56 GB required (including padding), 911.15 GB available
    Waiting for index to be ready (101)
    Copied 0 files (0 bytes) from volume Mac HD.
    Backup canceled.
    To prove a point, I will take these disks are run them on my other Tiger and Snow Leopard laptops to prove TM works fine on those with these disks. But I fear the only options are to either have my tech re-install LION... or just have him reinstall SL instead. Im at wits end.

  • The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm.

    The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm. i find this very convenient being a microsoft product. anybody else wonder why this new version happens to not be safari compatible? does anybody know if it works on the PC version of safari? if not, i find this to be a blatant move on microsofts part to bias the safari browser (especially since its basicly new on the window platform). forcing safari/hotmail users to "have" to use another browser to access their hotmail accounts.

    I have been successfully using Hotmail and Gmail with Safari for a long time. For roughly the past month, that relationship is rocky at best. At times, one of the following actions suddenly opens Hotmail, but it is a short-lived solution:
    (a) Hotmail directly
    (b) Hotmail Home>Hotmail
    (c) Sign up to Windows Hotmail
    (d) Deletion of prescribed cookies, resetting, etc. - made no difference
    Both Firefox and Opera work fine with Hotmail - especially Opera is very fast.
    In addition, Safari and Gmail does not work with Attachments, but otherwise Gmail is OK.
    I suspect I have to wait for a Safari fix because in my case I do not wish to abandon Hotmail, and Safari is a given. I would think that Safari would want to stay competitive with the two biggies, Hotmail and Gmail, which must have large numbers of users.
    I certainly would appreciate any other suggested fixes.

  • I cannot share photos via my hotmail account but works with Gmail

    Can anyone help?
    I have been using my hotmail account to send/share photos on iPhoto. Recently I cannot share photos via my hotmail account but works with Gmail?
    What do I need to do to get the hotmail account working again?

    In iphoto I select the photos to send, click on share and email. I setup the email in iphoto and iphoto sorted out all the pop3 & SMTP settings all i had to do was put my email & password in. Since its gone wrong I have got an ipad but no changes to my email settings.
    I have been looking at the 'mail' which is also setup for hotmail and I can't send emails from there either so i don't think there is a problem with iphoto.

    I read similar posts but none really answer if this is a runnable scenario. They only reference that the official spec is 333 with the built in graphics.
    Help is appreciated!
    Thanks!
