You need a new screen backlight. I was an Acer Repair guy a few years back and its definatley a physical thing. Only other possibility is the dim seetings are set to pretty much 100. If turning the brightness up which you can do from the keyboard fails call acer repairs for the part number or send it in for repair.

The power to the Xenon tubes that backlight the LCD screen has failed.
This can be caused by:
1. Power invertor failure.
2. Cable damage.
3. Motherboard fault.

Suggest you visit local repair centre and ask for quote as this is not an easy repair.

My hummingbird 955c comes on but screen is very dark .Regards

got to settings, and under display and brightness settings make sure it is at either full brightness or a level where your screen is not as dark.

If it is very dark so that you cannot see, you may need to do the operation in a dark room or at night under your bed.

Why is sony bravia dark screen

If your TV seems to be darker than you think it should be, it is possible that the problem is with the light sensor. The light sensor will automatically adjust the picture brightness based on the ambient light that is in the room, (i.e. if the room is bright the picture will also be bright, if it is dark the picture will also be dark).

To turn this feature off go to Settings > General Setup > Light Sensor.

Hi My screen is really dark when inside night pictures. I have tried to increase brightness.But can't adjust. Can you help plse ?

The set may have an ambient light detector - if so then the set up options will allow you to vary the screen brightness - a simple check to find out if this could be the problem would be to display an image during the day then if possible close the blinda and make the room dark - alternatviley do the same at night then switch the room lights on and off and see if the brightness changes.

Just a problem with the display - its very dark and invisible. I have checked all the settings including brightness etc. they all good and laptop functioning properly. Changing settings won't make any...

Take the laptop into a dark room.
If the computer is on, and the screen is "normal" (icons & wallpaper & such) but still quite dim, then the "inverter" component of the LCD screen has failed.

It's about a $20 part to replace, but you should pay a qualified technician for one hour of "labour" to disassemble/replace/reassemble/test it.

My acer laptop screen is dark

Hello,

If your laptop screen is dark, it could be the backlight,inverter, or bad lcd. You can test the backlight by starting the laptop and give it a few seconds to load and take the laptop in a dark room and shine a flashlight on the lcd and see if you can see any pictures or icons. If you can, you may just need an inverter to correct the issue, If not, you may need to replace the inverter and lcd both.

If you find that you need parts to correct the issue. I would suggest that you begin with replacing the inverter first, as they are usually less expensive.

If you can supply me with the model number of the specific laptop you are having trouble with and I can try to locate more information on replacing the parts.

Thanks
