Display problems
Here are some typical display problems and their solutions:
The screen is blank.
Display Auto Off may have gone into effect. Press any key to acti
vate the screen.
You may have activated the instant security feature by pressing
Fn and F1 simultaneously. If you have registered a password, type it
and press Enter. If no password is registered, simply press Enter. The
screen reactivates and allows you to continue working.
If you are using the built-in screen, make sure the display priority
is not set for an external monitor. To do this, press Fn and F5 simul
taneously (once). If this does not correct the problem, press Fn and
F5 simultaneously again to return the display priority to its previ
ous setting.
If you are using an external monitor:
♦ Check that the monitor is turned on.
♦ Check that the monitor's power cable is firmly plugged into a
working power outlet.
♦ Check that the cable connecting the external monitor to the
computer is firmly attached.
♦ Try adjusting the contrast and brightness controls on the exter
nal monitor.
♦ Press Fn and F5 simultaneously to make sure the display prior
ity is not set for the built-in screen.
