Dark screen Friday, February 5, 2010 at 10:51 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by John (35 messages posted) Hello, Computer was working fine this morning, but this afternoon when I turned it on, the screen flickered, then a very dark "shade" went over the entire screen, and now I must shine a light to it in order to se whatever I'm doing, the screen has become dark and I can't seem to fix it. It's happened before on other computers but by turning the monitor off and on, the screen returns to normal, but this one remains "dark". Can barely just see the screen now as I type this. Any ways to fix this? Please do not tell me the monitor is broken, because it's a nice 250 dollar one that I've had for only a year. I'm sure this problem has been mentioned and discussed before, but if I could see my monitor clearly, I'd have a better time searching instead of asking. Thank you in advance for any and all help. -John Responses to this message: re: Dark screen (Adam Bradley: Friday, February 5, 2010 at 11:01 am) re: Dark screen (Ricer46: Friday, February 5, 2010 at 1:40 pm) re: Dark screen (Charlie Hadden: Sunday, February 7, 2010 at 7:06 am) All messages in this thread [show all] Dark screen (John: Fri, Feb 5, 2010, 10:51 am) re: Dark screen (Adam Bradley: Fri, Feb 5, 2010, 11:01 am) re: Dark screen (Ricer46: Fri, Feb 5, 2010, 1:40 pm) re: Dark screen (John: Fri, Feb 5, 2010, 5:32 pm) re: Dark screen (MartinM: Sat, Feb 6, 2010, 4:55 am) re: Dark screen (jbmcmillan: Tue, Feb 9, 2010, 5:57 am) re: Dark screen (Charlie Hadden: Sun, Feb 7, 2010, 7:06 am) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows Vista Discussion Forum
