If my laptop overheats will it make the screen black? I was using it without a problem earlier today. Went to use it again & the screen was black. Restarted, but I do not hear all the noises that normally occur during restart and the screen is still black. What can I do? Thanks

remove the battery from bottom, plug into ac power pack, and try it that way

SOURCE: Black Screen, can hear sound though

I learned recently that, since I purchased mine with a VISA card, VISA automatically doubled my warranty to extend it to a second year. Hope this helps someone else.

Run a SCANDISK on the hard drive. That is referencing a drive sector, so by running a scandisk it will attempt to solve the errors and block the sector from being used.

Scandisk can be found by right-clicking the C: drive in MY COMPUTER then choosing TOOLS. Checkthe drive for errors. When you ge the YES/NO option box to run it when you reboot tell it YES and then reboot the PC.

How long have the colors on your display been "reversed/inverted" and looking like a negative....... Did you drop or damage the laptop in any way (sudden shock/bump)? Also, has it been allowed to overheat (if you run the laptop while it is sitting on a soft surface such as a bed, pillow, couch, etc it can allow the motherboard to overheat because it cannot get the airflow through the cooling system through the fan/vents because they are blocked). Have you checked to see if your laptop is included in the "HP Service Enhancement" program???

Take it back to the service centre
