Find device manager.
There will probably be a red X through the listing for display adapter.
Right click on that.
Follow the prompts to re-install, but it would not be a bad idea to possibly upgrade if there is a driver available.
Only way to know is to select theupgrade option.
If it comes back unavailable, go with the re-install option.
Do a restart after installing.

Good luck.

Reset button hp pavilion

Hi,
HP Pavilion not available reset button.
A hard or forced reset erases all information in the computer's memory which may restore functionality. Resetting your computer forces the system to clear and reestablish the software connections between the BIOS and the hardware.

Performing a hard or forced reset might fix the following conditions:-
Windows stops responding.
Computer stops before Windows loads - no boot, blinking cursor on a black display, and errors relating to OS not found or a missing drive.
Display suddenly goes blank and stays blank.
Software freezes.
Keyboard stops responding.
The computer does not return from sleep or suspend mode.

Thanks..

Acer Aspire One notebook model zG5, i hear the hard drive come on, but screen is blank and the keyboard does not respond.

Hello,

connect the laptop to an external monitor, turn it on see if the monitor will display.

If the monitor displays, then it means your screen inverter or screen bulb is the cause of the laptop screen being blank.

Also if the monitor does not display anything, the maybe the graphic card is the cause of the problem.

This would involve you taking the laptop to a repairer

Take care.

Screen goes blank (white), sometimes screen display will get big

You can update graphics driver, if that does not fix the issue check the display on external monitor. If the external monitor works fine you can isolate checking the display in BIOS Setup scree (Restart your computer and keep tapping F10 to getinto BIOS). If the same issue in BIOS, you may have to change display of the unit.

The display driver stopped working and everything just went blank. after restarting the computer, it seemed that the monitor cannot be detected anymore. and the monitor works. i checked it with my laptop....

Have you changed your hard drive?
You may need to update the driver.
Go to your device manager and see if your monitor or display adapter has been disabled.
If so, enable them.
Perhaps it is time to update your drivers.
Go to windows update and check for updates that apply to your system; if available, download and install them.
What OS are you using? Windows XP or Vista?
Consult this to see what some users have managed to apply as a fix for this problem:

My Hp PAvilion DV9000 LAptops screen keeps going blank. If I hook it up to and external monitor then it works.

YOUR INTERAL DISPLAY ADAPTOR MAY BE GOING BAD, HAVE U TRIED REINSTALLING THE DRIVER , IF SO ITS UR ADAPTOR OR THE SCREEN ITSELF WHICH IS NOT A BIG PROBLEM REPLACING. THE EASIEST THING TO DO IS ASSUME ITS THE MONITOR. DOES IT DO THIS IMMEDIATELY OR DOES IT TAKE A WHILE. WHEN U HOOK UP THE OTHER MONITOR DO BOTH SCREENS WORK.

Monitor goes blank if run from battery

From the mains?

You mean power?

If you have to uninstall the display controller , that means that your video drivers are bad, and you are running the native video drivers.
Get new updated drivers and keep us posted.
