Qosmio X500: black screen on TV using HDMI

Hello,
I have a X500 and want to use Hdmi as output, to view movies on my Tv ( Samsung LCD ).
When i plug my hdmi wire, my screen turns black, and on my tv: no signal or mode unsupported.
I updated my drivers ( graphic card / sound / Hdmi ) and updated my bios.
Windows 7 x64.
Any idea ?

Hi buddy,
Have you tried to switch between the displays using FN+F5 key combination? So you can change between internal, external and both display.
Furthermore you should connect the HDMI cable before you start the devices. Switch on your TV firstly and select the correct HDMI input channel. Then switch on your notebook and test it again.

Qosmio X500 - Black screen crash when loading games, requiring reboot

I have a brand new Qosmio X500 (PQX33A-00X00J) with all the original drivers as they came out the box, and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium OS. The only thing I've done on this laptop is install games. The laptop runs fine for most things, and for a very few games (Unreal Tournament 2007 is the only one so far), but almost all games crash with a black screen the first time they're run. Sometimes I'll see a splash screen the first time, and once or twice I've got to a start screen, but thereafter the screen goes completely black, no sound, and the machine freezes requiring a reboot.
It's extremely frustrating, considering this is a brand new, out of the box gaming laptop, and I haven't changed any drivers or anything. It's running an Nvidia Geforce GTS 250M display card, and the native resolution for the LCD screen is 1920x1080. I suspect it may have something to do with the unusual native screen resolution or the aspect ratio, because I managed to get one game to run (FEAR) by going into the supplied config utility and setting the game's default screen resolution to 1024x768. FEAR has the same crash if set to a higher resolution.
The games I've tried:
Unreal Tournament 2007 - runs perfectly at all resolutions
Half Life 2 - crashes on launch with black screen, no sound, requiring reboot.
Counter Strike - the 1st time I managed to the setup screen, changed screen resolution, it crashed immediately. Thereafter it crashes straight away on launch, I can't even get to the setup screen. Uninstalled, reinstalled, same thing, crashes on launch with black screen, requiring reboot.
Bioshock - only ever got a "Bioshock" logo, then crashes with black screen, requiring reboot.
Frontlines - Fuel of War - crashes on launch with blank screen, requiring reboot.
Call Of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare - crashes immediately on loading with black screen, requiring reboot.
Crysis - crashes immediately on loading with black screen, requiring a reboot.
Except for UT 2007, almost every game has just crashed the first time it's been run, I usually don't even get a 1st shot at trying to change any settings. I've tried loading the games that provide a safe mode in that (e.g. Modern Warfare), but the same thing happens. I've also tried setting the laptop resolution to 1024x768 before running the games, but no difference. I've also made sure I'm running the latest patched version of the games, and I've checked the Toshiba website, but there are no driver updates so far that I can find for this laptop either.
I'm completely pulling my hair out, and solving this is very time consuming, because every time I try anything I have to reboot before I can try something else. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Someone suggested I try turning off my antivirus, and it turns out that was the problem. It seems Comodo has compatibility problems with games in Windows 64-bit editions since one of their latest releases.

Qosmio G30 - black screen on external monitor

Qosmio G30 (PQG32E) running Vista Home Premium, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 driver, 7.15.10.9813
I cannot get a picture on an external monitor (tried two different monitors). Specifically:
'Windows Mobility Center' will recognise that a monitor is connected
'NVIDIA Control Panel - Change Display Configuration' will recognise the external monitor ('Select the displays you would like to use' shows 'Laptop Display + Sony SDM-HS73', which is the plugged-in ext monitor)
but no matter what configuration I try, using Fn+F5 or Change Display Configuration, I cannot get anything but a (backlit) black screen on the external monitor.
The monitor is receiving a video signal correctly: when turned off under a laptop-only Fn+F5 setting, it shows a 'no signal' warning, but when turned on again I just get black.
I have tried changing resolution settings for the external monitor. They exactly match the monitor's native resolution. Still nothing.
Tried 'Clone' mode and 'Dual View' mode.
Tried various different orders of switching the laptop and monitor on, plugging and unplugging, etc.
Have installed latest driver from this Toshiba site (as above). Have NOT tried installing any other driver from the NVIDIA site, since it warns to use Toshiba's - but is that worth a try?
The laptop's own screen and all other aspects of video are fine.
It has worked ok in the past (I think before I did the upgrade to Vista, when it was still on XP).
Do I just wait for another driver update from Toshiba, and perhaps Vista SP1?
I'm really hoping this is not a hardware issue, since the monitor is recognised etc....
Jonathan

What port did you use?
The external monitor (analog) port or the D-video out port?
As far as I know if you have used the external monitor (analog) port then you should choose the Analog display in the nVidia -> current display
Then you could use the button FN+F5 to switch between the both displays.

Qosmio F55 Black screen on boot

I have a toshiba qosmio f55 and does anyone know why sometimes when I reboot, I get a black screen but windows is being loaded and do hear the jingle tune. It happens randomly. I would have to unplug or just hold down the power button. It must be a hardware issue since it happens on a fresh install.
Also when installing fresh windows 7, at the first time loading the resolution is set to a 440 X 680 or something with only 4 bit colors. When installing the nvidia drivers, it is fine and can set to 1440X900 and 32 bit colors. When playing games the laptop is fine as well as everything else.
Appreciate your time for an answer :)

Yes, the 400X600 ugly resolution happens during the initial install of windows 7 once, then it was fine. Just sometimes when rebooting the screen is black but the backlight is on, no picture and windows is loaded.
Maybe its the hard drive?
Window loads perfectly and can play games.
Only once while playing Risen game when trying to load the game the game stuttered and was forced to restart. GPU replacement would be super expensive and hard since I bought this used but in like new condition.
I told the seller this and said he hasn't experienced the problem during install.
This is my 3rd qosmio f55, I love this pc so much I can't ever go back to a satellite, nor the F60 model isn't available in the USA yet.

Hello Everyone ,

SAVideoRange Silder perform task to get all thumbnail images from video which i have assign . It uses AVAsset image generator class provided by apple to get image frames from videos and it runs in background using its handler method.
Handler Method ::
[self.imageGenerator generateCGImagesAsynchronouslyForTimes:times
                                              completionHandler:^(CMTime requestedTime, CGImageRef image, CMTime actualTime,

Macbook Pro Early 2009 Randomly Sleeps / Black Screen While In use

My macbook pro Early 2009, randomly goes to sleep while I am using the computer, I first noticed it occuring while I was using the mini display adapter to a computer monitor, and using a second monitor and watching a movie, the screen would go blank and I would have to wake it from sleep for it to come back on, sometimes closing the lid, sometimes pressing the trackpad, or keyboard to get it to work again, sometimes it would go back to sleep within 1 minute of waking.
I assume the problem could have been from perhaps water damage, as I recently used a wet paper towel to clean my keyboard, and perhaps the paper towel was a little to moist, not overly but perhaps just enough to damage the sleep sensor. I am still unsure where that is located, the only other problem I have noticed with the computer is my [battery service indicator] notification has been on for the last year, but since I never used the battery, I always have it plugged in at the desk I never bothered getting it serviced. So
I'm assuming its the Sleep Sensor? but here is what I hace done, just to make sure its not software. I was orignaly running 10.8, and after being frustrated while watching a movie and having my computer sleep every 2 minutes, I whipped my hardrive, put 10.9 developers preview on a usb and installed that.
On 10.9 I can swipe with 3 fingers on the trackpad and the display appears but if i let go of the swipe it goes back to black screen.
I can see Icons like, brightness, and sound, when adjusting the levels, but screen is black behind the icons
The mouse pointer cursor is visible but the screen is black
I can move the mouse and hear system sounds, but screen is black. Now I have to actually restart the computer because It seems like I cannot wake it up at all.
So I formatted the hardrive again and
I tried reinstalling Leopard OSX , as that was the disc that came with the mac,
but have Same problems in 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 I upgraged to developer 10.9 to see if the problem would fix, but still occurs.
I ran hardware diagnostic off the leopard disc 2, by pressing the D key on startup with disc in drive, extended hardware test reported no problems.
I SMC reset and PRAM reset, [control]+[option]+[shift]+[powerbutton] while computer is turned off with power plugged in
and after that failed I tried pressing [Option]+[Command]+[P]+[R] before startup chime, chime repeat let go of keys and it booted normally.
Then computer randomly sleeps while in use, while using safari and it has happened 3 times within 2 minutes of typing this.
I have downloaded a program called InsomniaX, and activated the disable sleep for Lid and Idle, but now the screen will randomly just go black and then turn back on, sometimes it will just black screen for 10 seconds and come back on, altho after changing some more of the settings It appears to be not as frequent. It hasen't gone to sleep since writing this entire paragraph, so thats a good sign.
I was going to take it into the apple store, and have them run diagnostics, but I hate going into those stores because of all the iphone people, crowding the place.
Well my screen just blacked and came back within 10 seconds on while I typing this line so InsomniaX didn't work. I hope having the sleep sensor replaced isn't too expensive, or if my model even has such a sensor.
I read on another topic that this problem can be replicated by users putting a magnet on their laptop, something like an iphone or a money clip or even having one of these in their pocket while using the macbook on their lap. I have not had anything near the computer, so I have a different problem.
Just thought Id document this, will let you know what happens after the diagnostic, I tried apple support, and they said I did more than they would have done, so he couldn't really tell me anything besides take it into genius bar, (is that what its still called) and have them run diagnostic, [note its different than the hardware test on the cd]
and my computer screen goes black again, wow..

Hi pictureswithPS, welcome to Apple Discussions!
1. I have an original late-2008 unibody MBP that was purchased a week after the introduction. I have never had a single "black screen of death" ever, and I do some gaming under OS X on my machine. The heat issues are, in my humble opinion, greatly exaggerated. Does the machine get warm? Yes. However, any computer with this much power in this thin of an enclosure is going to get warm. Mine has never crashed, frozen, black screened, etc. once.
2. I don't think PS is particularly intensive on the graphics card. It may use the graphics card, yes, but I don't think it will be quite as intensive as a 3D modeling application or 3D games. I would doubt you would ever run into problems anyway.
3. Lastly I am aware that their are tools to manage fan speed behavior - as a workaround to cool down temperatures. Using this software would it void the warranty that is provided by Apple?
No, it wouldn't likely void the warranty. However, if your fans die prematurely as a result of running them at high speeds for extended periods of time, I doubt Apple would be especially happy about replacing them. I do not use any 3rd party tools to manage my fans, and never will. It is simply not necessary.

Hp pavilion s5715 - computer freezes / black screen after i use it somewhat intensively

Hi,
I recently bought the HP Pavilion s5715 but when I used it even somewhat intensively (playing Left 4 Dead for example) it'll freeze / black screen after a short while (10 minutes or so).
I assume this has to do with overheating, but what would be a good fix for this? And how can I figure out what component overheats?

Hi,

Qosmio X500-10V - need new or used graphic card chip

Need a new / used graphic card for my Qosmio X500 10V!!
Please contact!
greatings, Kingsley

Hi
Im not quite sure if you will be able to get only the graphic chip.
I guess the graphic chip would be sold in connection with an new motherboard.
However, the notebook seems to be equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce GTS250M GPU.
You can contact the authorized service provider in your country to get the compatible part. Not quite sure how much such GPU could be but I think it would not be a cheap replacement.

Occasional black screen unexpectedly while using my iMac.

I've had three or four occasions in the year since I've had my new iMac (27") when the screen has gone black unexpectedly. It takes several mouse clicks or taps of the Escape key to get the screen to come back - any thoughts (it is not the screensaver cutting in)?

If you have just been using the iMac and it then suddenly goes black, you have a probable hardware problem. Software, other than the screen going to sleep due to computer inactivity for a while, would not create a black screen.
Hope this helps

Qosmio F10: black screen at booting - No Toshiba screen

Help,
my F10 is totally stuck and doesn't run anymore. After starting, the display stays black and the fan begins to run wildly, after a while the toshiba sound comes up but nothing else happens. No windows, nothing at all, only the wild running fan of the notebook.
Before this happened I shut down the computer normally. We have about 26 or 27 degrees celsius in our office room today, but I didn't register any overheat in my computer. Something strange: I registered since a few days, that after having started, only the toshiba sound came up but no symbols of toshiba on the screen as usual.
My question is: what can I do?

I have just had the same problem with my F10, it was still under warranty so Toshiba picked it up and said they had to replace the motherboard, it was a quick service 5 Days, but I am glad I didn't have to pay for it, i've heard it's about £500.00 to replace the motherboard.
I hope it doesn't keep happening again. When my F10 packed up, it was a hot day as well, I had it on a glass coffee table, went to make a cup of tea and when I came back it was a black screen with the fan constantly running.
Let us know what you have done with yours.

Black screen when I use WMP in full screen mode

Hi.
When i watch TV on the windows media player so i have problem. If I switch on full screen so there is just black screen but i can hear sounds.
I've got my laptop for 4 months but everything was ok.
This problem started just now maybe 2 days ago. I think i've done something but i don't know what and i can't fix it.
Could you help me please?
Thanks

> When i watch TV on the windows media player so i have problem. If I switch on full screen so there is just black screen but i can hear sounds.
Hi,
It may be an obvious suggestion but, have you checked the "video settings". If you have changed the brightness and/or contrast playback to min values (ie no contrast and no brightness), the screen will play black.
To check the video settings, click the little arrow under the "Now Playing" tab and mouse over "Enhancements" then select "Video Settings" and select reset.
OR
1. Press ctrl + m
2. Open the "View Menu"
3. Select Enhancements
4. Select Video Settings
5. Select Reset
OR
