    Blank Screen when unplugged


    I have an ASUS x555l laptop running Windows 10, which has all the appropriate updates since I bought the laptop in 2015 and installed Windows 10 as a free download when it was made available. My problem is that when I am on battery power, the screen immediately goes blank (black). If I plug the cord back in, it immediately comes back on.


    I have checked my Power Options and my screen is set to Full Brightness on AC Power and on Battery Power. I even installed a brand new battery and made sure it was at full charge, yet the problem persists. It's very discouraging to have a laptop that I can't use in a potable environment simply because the screen goes blank.


    Please let me know if this might be a driver problem, and if I might need to download and/or reinstall a new one. I'm very frustrated with this situation.


    Thank you.

    :)

  2. Blank Screen

    Hi Virginia,

    Conflicts with third-party software and outdated graphic drivers are common contributors to the black screen issue that you're having. To isolate the said issue, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • Are you getting any error messages before getting a blank screen?
    • Are you experiencing this when using a particular app?
    • Were there any changes made on your computer settings prior to this issue?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you refer to this
    article
    which talks about the steps you can take to resolve blank screen errors.

    We'll wait for your response and assist you accordingly.

    Blank Screen when unplugged

    Screen goes blank after changing BIOS settings/

    I don't know how long this has been happening, a few weeks at least, but whenever I change a setting in my BIOS (and save & exit), my screen goes blank and my monitor goes into standby. Any suggestions to fix this?
