Why does my hp laptop screen black?

this is a commom issue with windows 8 on HPs. turn off your automatic updates then contact windows. the updates usually gets to 13% and then freezes.

Sounds like the operating system is not loading. needs to be reinstalled.

If you havent tried to boot your operating system from a disk or jump drive (which you can get from you local PC store for around 5 bucks) then I'd say your either missing harware components, or the ones you have are fried, and your better off buying a new PC.

Almost all of the HPs Mini laptop screen issues are related to the internal video card/motherboard. hopefully you still have the laptop under warranty.

your device is missing it's operating system! use the restore cdroms that came with your system. if lost or do not get a restore cdroms then you will need to contact hp for replacement cdroms.

Your laptop is probably outputting the video signal to the wrong monitor. When the screen goes black, try pressing the function key to switch the video back to the laptop screen. Refer to your laptop's manual on what key to press. Usually it is the Fn key and F4 at the same time for HP laptops.

Hello.

Could be a power issue.

The most common reasons for power issues are the battery, power jack and power adapter/cord.

Power off and remove the battery. If the laptop powers on with just the adapter connected, your battery is faulty.

If you move/wiggle the power adapter at the point where it connects to the laptop, and the power goes off and on, the power jack is the problem.

The power jack is inside the laptop and either needs soldering or replacement. If a power jack problem, it should be addressed by someone knowledgeable.

If no change, the power adapter is probably faulty and needs replacement.

Hope this helps.

I had the same problem on a dv9000 as well.
Did you use the laptop much on the couch/beds etc? (So the temperature went up)? My video chip became "unsoldered" by a manufacturing fault.
If above is the case, please contact your local dealer.
If not, Please try updating your videocard driver (try using save mode with networking if Windows doesn't want to startup the regular way anymore) The drivers are on HP's website, here : support.hp.com

I'm having the same issue. I have version 15.0.02, and I'm running on a Asus laptop with 64bit. Whenever I switch to 3D view, the screen goes black unless I'm panning the view around.
