  1. Laptop screen blank, password not working


    I have a Gateway laptop that I’ve had for a year. Haven’t had any problems until yesterday. Was playing The Sims 4 when suddenly the screen went blank. Mostly black, with lighter gray at the corners. I tried restarting, the gateway logo comes up, windows logo and circling white dots, then it goes to the same blank screen. I tried this several times. The indicator lights for caps and num lock still respond. I tried looking it up, but the command key recommended windows key +crtl + alt + shift B did nothing. I left for a while and when I tried again, it booted up like normal. Thought it was fi

  2. Laptop with broken screen How much?

    I would like suggestions and look in local stores. I dont wanna buy a laptop from someone online. Sorry. But could be a good idea if you asked him about the performance on older games. Gonna make a list ofall laptops people suggest me.

    Remove the screen for space purpose here its small desk and if the screen is opened it will hide my 22 inches lcd

  3. 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    Conflicts with third-party software and outdated graphic drivers are common contributors to the black screen issue that you're having.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.

    Laptop screen blank, password not working

    WIN 10 Admin password not working.


    This really helped and the Hibernate problem was put to rest, however the pswd is not reset. I am following the default option in NT and at some point it is just cycling around, until i choose to quite. I can see the admin has been selected and some attempts are made to clear the register. I says the pswd appears to be blank and suggest to log in with blank pswd. Also when quitting, it asked to write the changes to the disk - y. But when tested later, there still is a password.
    The program looks pretty neat though.

    Some steps from me: on the pc is a guest acc, so no password. This is still something, then i achieve to get to the Recovery and restart. Now I have tried various options like run Safe mode with Command prompt and type the bcdedit command, which is access denied. Option 2 to run just the command prompt also failed, because ask for admin password.

    Guys, is there any way to get rid of the Safe mode from the recovery/ troubleshoot/ advanced options without the admin password?????

    I found this whole story to be really, really big safety issue for this windows. If the only option is to log in to safe mode with the password(no pin) why the hell, they do not ask for it when switching it on?! Poor programming from everywhere! Also some restriction are easy to go around - after couple of days playing around on this issue.
