I accidentally pressed the Moon button on my Dynex keyboard and the screen went black. The computer sounds like it is still running and I don't know whether I have a sleep mode enabled on my computer or not. I've tried pressing the power button for a short time but that doesn't wake it up, not does pressing a space bar or return key. I was in the middle of an entry in my financial software and I didn't want to just hold the power button to shut the computer off and then restart it. How can I get my display to turn back on?

What about removing the hard drive from the laptop and put it into sata box, to be USB external drive.
And then get out your important data, and format the hard disk.

and try again to boot???

If it doesn't work , try to replace the memory it might be the problem with the memory.

SOURCE: Blank screen upon startup

Try taking out the hard disk, plug in power and see if you have a display on your screen or external monitor. if same thing happen, try taking out the memory card. If you hear a beep sound it's a faulty mem. card, if no beep sound appears I suspected it's a motherboard faulty.

There is a long silver button with a black moon on the upper left of my keyboard. When I accidentally hit it, the screen goes black. What is it.....and how do you get your screen back?

Hi,
Depending on how your keyboard is configured, that key is set to do one of two things:
  1. Puts your computer to sleep. (A low power state where almost everything is shut off, including the monitor). You can resume from sleep by hitting any key on the keyboard, hitting the power button on your computer, or clicking the mouse.
  2. Puts your computer into hibernation. (An even lower power state where everything is actually shut off, but a copy of everything open is saved to the hard drive to be opened during start up. It basically allows you to turn off the computer, but be able to turn it back on with program exactly how you left it). You can resume from hibernation only by hitting the power button on your computer.
Hope this helps. If it does, please accept and rate the solution! You can leave a testimonial or contact me with any more questions you may have. Thanks for using FixYa!

What do the top row of buttons on keyboard meanAZ56001 E5400

Hi! you may be talking about the function keys on your keyboard. Each button has its unique functions that may help you while using your computer. kindly check the images on the button, for example if the image on the button looks like a moon it means that button will make your computer go to sleep mode. all you need to do is to press FN+ the button with the moon image and that will do the job. You may also see sun image for backlight adjustment, speaker image for sound settings a square image for an external monitor that can toggle display from 1 monitor to another. Also, pressing F1 button while computer is booting up may take you to BIOS (basic input output screen) . Don't forget to press FN button together with the function buttons.

Pressed hibernation key and now the computer won't work

Unplug the computer for a minute and plug it back in. It should restart normally.

Usually you restart just by tapping a key in sleep or hitting the power in hibernate.

My Compaq keyboard has a key with an icon shaped like a moon. What is that for? Also, ovedr the number pad, there is a light on the right that has an arrow pointing down. What is that light for. Also, my...

The Moon key is for putting your computer to sleep, the keypad light is probably the NUM LOCK LIGHT. When your screen blacks out will it come on again if you press enter on click the mouse button? if so, go into the control panel, click on the power options and look for the icon marked 'Screen' or something similiar. Change the timing to an hour or so...
