Touchsmart HP laptop screen goes white when I tilt the screen

The computer runs fine but when I touch the screen it responds great, but when I tilt my screen to adjust for brightness the whole screen goes white and I have to tilt back and forth to get screen back on.

Very likely that the screen cable is damaged around hinge area. It has to be replaced. (just the cable, not the whole screen).

SOURCE: Hp laptop screen blinks during use

You could have a faulty inverter but
You most likely have a defective CCFL backlight, it may have the following symptom:

  • Screen flashs on red/pink and off.
  • Picture stays on in red and slowly be come normal.
  • Picture flickering with dim display.
  • Picture flickering on and off.
All these symptoms indicate that the LCD backlight lamp (CCFL Lamp) has reached the end of the life and all you need to do is replacing the CCFL lamp

Connect an external monitor to your laptop and power it up, if you see the normal Windows images then the video card and laptop is OK and the problem is definitely the backlight.

Dim image and/or dark display on the laptop's LCD screen indicates a faulty LCD backlight and it could be the inverter that supplies high voltage to the CCFL lamp or it is the CCLF lamp is nearly burnt out or burnt out, most likely this is the case.
The inverter can be replaced easily but the CCLF lamp is more time consuming and requires soldering skills.
Check out www.lcdparts.net for parts, repair service and DIY info.

SOURCE: the lightning bolt on my hp touchsmart tx2 flashes

that means your laptop has no power so your battery is dead which would explain why it shut down on you, and that means its not charging so it would either be the adapter or the port on your laptop

SOURCE: How do I adjust the screen brightness on a HP

Hi, Actually, the problem here is you don?t have any options in windows XP to increase the brightness without using keyboard. HP does not provide any utility with the OS as it is OEM. Try this · Click on start > Click on control panel..... · Click on power options.... · Click on " Change settings plan "..... · Adjust the brightness and save the plan..... And exit... that should work.... OR Replace the keyboard and get the all things working

My HP pavilion /touchsmart is not responding to my touch how can I fix it?

Hello Heko, it usually happens because of problems with the controller that intercedes between the software and the computer (in this case HP laptop or Desktop) and we can find the solution with HP Support Assistant's own tools.

Why is the screen rotation is not working on hp touchsmart tx2 tablet?

what is a tx2, circa 2007 device?
its a very old laptop.
right> super old running XP, right? is it/? or Vista 32?
HP TouchSmart tx2 Notebook PC

no OS stated, what operating system is running,??????
has the OS been upgraded, or changed? we cant guess that.
The Drivers on this touch pad are failing.
if you go to HP.com you can get the correct drivers.
but they will ask you for the full model number not just terse tx2

see them here.
https://support.hp.com/us-en/products/laptops/touchsmart-notebooks

there are 4 , classes of TX2

failures like this are software or hardware caused.
if software can be virus infected, that both vista and Xp worse
will be... and endless. pain there.
or someone loaded wrong OS, or wrong drivers.

all that is called OS corrupted, in one form are another.
Id reload the OS using real HP disks.
or try the drivers seen here.

i guessed VISTA 32, if not vista 32, tell HP what it is now.

Hp touchsmart screen is white

I think you may have seriously damaged this machine when it hit the floor off the table. What I would do is re-install the original software that came with your computer and start over or open it and check for any loose connections or broken parts. John

My screen does not respond on my Hp touchsmart pc IQ 506

Is it still under warranty? It should be. If not then HP will help either way. This is a new development for HP to start with. Go to HP/support.com there are questions there to match up with the problem you are having if not then you can send them you actual problem you are having. They will most likely either pick up your PC at no cost or do a remote access to resolve your issue. Have any problem in doing this let me know and I will help you.

Lap top screen goes blank all of a sudden

I assume that when you dont use your computer you put it in a sleep mode by pressing sleep button ..so if this is the problem you are facing than there is nothing wrong with your video card and solution for this problem is that remove both the power cables and also remove the battery for time being, after some time put back your battery in the laptop and plug the power cable and restart your laptop it will work fine...........
