Screen goes black having to keep adjusting the screen angle to get it on again
Video Cable
The Video Cable connects to the motherboard.
It then runs along under the Left Hinge, and connects to the back of LCD screen.
{LED backlighting. Does not use a screen Inverter]
Due to just normal opening, and closing of the laptop; the Video Cable may be pinched.
This can cause the connection of the Video Cable TO motherboard, to be loose; and/or LCD screen.
Solution is to partially disassemble the laptop, and PHYSICALLY make sure the connection at motherboard is tight.
Visual inspection will NOT do.
Connection at back of LCD screen needs to be Physically checked also. (Try to plug in tighter)
Also visually inspect the sheath of the Video Cable, for apparent signs of damage.
Any signs of damage to the sheath, may mean damage to the tiny wires inside the Video Cable.
(Stretched/Broken)
Also due to the age of the laptop, suspect cracking of the insulation, of the wires inside the Video Cable.
If you have a multimeter, set it to OHM's (1K), and check continuity of every wire in the Video Cable.
Or take it to a small computer store, and have the resident tech check it.
The Advent 4211 is just a rebadged MSI Wind U100, according to my findings,

[ In the photo, the large connector at bottom plugs into the LCD screen.
The smaller connector at the upper right plugs into the motherboard.
The separate black wire you see with the eyelet on it, is a Ground wire ]

the computer shoulda came with a disk and that would be your operating system disk so put it in, then start your computer and if it doesnt boot to the disk, then hit F2 and change the boot options and make it boot from the disk and so when it does boot, then thats when u can reinstall windows back to factory settings but i dunno about advent notebooks. in HP tho, u can do it from the start menu cuz the reinstall settings are already on your computer so ya dont need the disk

Hi! Try to use the function key: FN+F11 to enable the wireless adapter. Check device manager if driver is properly installed.If yes, try to update the driver:right click on the realtek wireless LAN in device manager and then choose properties and then click update, choose automatically look for update from internet.If this doesnt work try to uninstall and reinstall the driver (make sure you restart the system after reinstalling the driver). If you have AVG as your anti virus sw try to disable it or uninstall it and then check if it will work.hope this will help...
