Why does my computer screen black out

Re: Forums
I'm using an Hp Pavilion Slim Line s5260f desk top pc. I have posted this thread several weeks ago. It seems that I loose my screen on occassion while I am operating my computer. When this happenes the computer blacks out and my screen turns into a very dark shade of blue almost black. Having to force shut down the computer to turn it on again. In the past I have changed my monitor which worked for a while. Another time a short while ago when this happened I unpluged the power chord and the chord going from my monitor to my tower and plugged them in again which worked for a while It has blacked out again. I am asking if anyone has an idea of why this happens on occasion so I can try to address this issue be it now or the next time it happens. I am also hoping that I have posted this question in the proper catogory in the Hp forum. Thank you Jerry.

JrJerry,
Is this the Nvidia driver update that failed to install? It should install.
Working on instructions for event viewer (event viewer may be a dead end) but could you send a screenshot of Device Manager?
Go to Control Panel - Device Manager. Then use Microsoft's snipping tool.
It should look like this ( image ).
I am interested in the display adapter. This image is an example of a system with no device errors.
Please open an admin command prompt. Then enter this command: sfc /scannow
One last thought, roughly when did you purchase your system and when did this problem start? If the system was fine until recently and the Nvidia drivers (software) are corrupted then a restore should correct the problem. I would only suggest this course of action after all else fails, especially not being able to update the Nvidia drivers. If the problems remains after a restore then it is hardware or heat related.
We may have to restore the system back the factory image. Did you create an HP Recovery Disk set?
Make sure you back up all important data as a system recovery will reformat your harddrive and, in the process, erase all data and programs you have installed since you purchased the computer.
If we can't solve this problem maybe one or more of the other very knowledgeable forum members can assist.
One last point, in an earlier reply I had suggested you try DVI if currently using VGA and vice versa. This was suggested to eliminate a possible flakey input-output vga or dvi port connection to the mainboard. This would indicate a mainboard failure. The only solution would be to replace the mainboard with the same type (correctly tatooed HP) mainboard. It may be cheaper to replace the system if this is the case.

Why does my tv screen black out with atv2?

Does anyone know how to cure the screen on my tv blacking out with atv2? It occurs whether watching a movie from iTunes or Netflix, flicking through my iTunes library or when the photographs scroll when listening to music. I have latest software, tried resettting the atv and also changed the hdmi cable. Any help would be appreciated.

I bought ATV last night and have the same issue. Mine screen is up for no more than 60 seconds at a time so it really is useless. I'm going to try different things today to see if I can figure it out, but no answers yet.

Why does my iphone 4s run out of battery so quick?

Why does my iphone 4s run out of battery so quick?

What do you mean by 'quick'? If you mean a few hours then I think it is normal (it's normal for me: 4+ hours for me depending on what I use it for). If you play apps with really good graphics it will make the battery go quicker. If you don't use it for much, then the battery might have gone out-of-sync with the battery percentage it thinks it has (I am not sure if this happens with apple devices though)

Why does my iPhone screen glitch up?

My iPhone at times does this random thing where the screen glitches. My screen ends up looking a bit like the crystal have burnt with weird multi-coloured vertical lines all over my screen, making the iPhone unusable for 5 mins before returning to its normal self. Sometimes it fades out onto a black screen and every time this occurs, I have to reset my iPhone and it's back to normal.
I'm unsure if it's coincidental, but many times this happens, I have either lost service or wifi/both. Also this tends to happen when I'm low on battery, just charging my phone or have just finished charging. This usually happens once a day or every 2-3 days sometimes.
I've tried restoring my phone and all but it doesn't seem to have done anything.
Does anyone know how to fix this or know what is happening?

I forgot to mention. Usually after the glitch and when my iPhone returns to normal, the apps on the bottom row of the page (on all pages) all go to the next page e.g. if you have 3 full pages of apps pre glitch, after this glitch you will have 6, 3 containg 4 rows of apps and another 3 pages containg 1 row. I don't know if this gives an indication to the root of the problem.

Why does the iPhone randomly exit out of apps??

Hello what should I do about my iPhone 4S randomly exiting out of apps? I've held the top and middle buttons at the same time many of times and its not helping! It's still occurring! Help!!!

An app randomly exiting means that the app has "crashed". You might have a bad app (try deleting it form your device and re-downloading it). It might be an app bug which you just happen to be encountering. It could also be a problem with your iPhone. You could do a "restore as new" and re-instsall the apps and see if they have the same issues or not. It they don't, then it was either a bad download, or corruption in your "profile".

Why does my iPhone screen dim when I send text messages?

Whenever I'm texting someone and I tap the voice button to use talk to text, the screen dims to black on my 5s, if my face gets close to the phone.
Also, if I put the phone up to my ear or near my face whenever I have text message convo window open, the phone beeps and dims. It starts trying to record a memo or something?
I'm jailbroken and I have never seen this happen before. Any ideas on what is going on?
Would appreciate any help! - bud

We really do not support jail broken devices as it violates the terms of this site. That said the dimming when the phone gets close to your face is a normal function via a proximity sensor to stop inadvertent button triggers

Why does Browse All Versions black out TimeMachine view when using Pages '09 in Mavericks?

I have just upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks.
When I click File>Revert>Browse All Versions... for a Pages '09 document in Mavericks, the TimeMachine view just begins to emerge, but then suddenly the screen goes completely black. The only way I can recover (besides restarting) is to click on my second monitor. Then the typical TimeMachine view appears for a fraction of a second as it's exiting back to the current document view. I never get to see the previous versions, let alone work with them.
I can't find anyone in the community with a similar problem.
Also, I definitely do not want to upgrade to the new Pages, which is missing many of the features I use a lot.
How can I get the Browse All Versions view of a Pages '09 document to stay visible in Mavericks?
Note: I just discovered that I could solve this problem by disconnecting my second monitor, or by making it mirror my main monitor. Having multiple monitors seems to be interfering with the "Browse All Versions" function.

Yeah, all the more furstrating when you see that osx is less polished than before and Apple take so much time to fix "simple" stuffs... (i.e: particularly no love for dual displays, lot of annoying quircks).
Well, anyhow I posted here because it was the only place google sent me to when looking for this issue. I just answered to the guy since he was alone in his thread and I had the same issue (although not with pages). Just supportin', you see
But yeah, I'll post in Mavericks section. I'll do it this w.e since I hadn't the time before. Thanks for your concern btw

My iphone screen blacked out! Lock Button Broken!

Doesnt show anything but siri works, and makes noise. There has been a similar thread and the solution was to restart the phone by holding down the lock and home button at the same time but my lock button doesnt work !! PLEASE HELP ASAP!

did you tap the Home Button (Middle circle) to turn it on, then go to settings>accessibility>Assistive Touch>Turn it on (Top one)
Now there should be a circle in a square, tap it and you get more options, such as for you: Tap the Circle>Device>Lock Screen and your screen will be off.

Why does my iphone 4 keep cutting out in conversation after 2-3 minutes

why does my iphone 4 cut out when calling someone after 2-3 miutes

Sounds like something got corrupted during your upgrade.
I would restore from a last known good backup if I were you.
If that doesn't work I would set the phone up as new and re-install all of your apps and re-sync your music again.
