Laptop screen turning
on and off randomly.
If there is a lose wire going to the back light in the screen
when you open it all the way or gently taping on the back of the screen and the
light stays on longer or turns off completely.
(This can happen over time from normal use or manufacture error)
The way to fix it is to take the screen off where it
attaches to the body of the laptop and find the lose wire and fix it (can be
tricky). You might not want to do it yourself and probably need to take it
to a shop or have a friend that knows how to fix them or if you have a extra
monitor laying around you can use it till you get the money saved up to get it
fixed properly.
I've had to repair laptop screens like that a few times myself
or if the laptop is old (3-4 years or more) it would be cheaper in the long run
to buy a new one because repairs can be half the cost of a newer faster machine.
Screens smudged or
dirty and hard to see try this
If you haven't cleaned the screen in a while with a damp
(not wet) cloth I would try that first.
If you have and it doesn't remove the smudge try some rubbing
alcohol on a clean lint free cloth and gently wipe the area.
If that doesn't
work then there is a good chance the screen itself is damaged and needs
replaced.
Laptop being slow or
freezing up at random times.
You might have a virus or spyware that is slowing the laptop
down. Try downloading this and let it scan it may take a while but it works
really well and it's free. Superantispyware
Macbook shuts off every couple hours for no apparent
reason?
I spilled water on it about a week
ago but I've allowed it to dry completely. Everything else is working perfectly
fine. I just can't get it to stop turning off randomly!
Here's my answer:
It may still be wet inside some place and randomly shorting
out and turning the Mac off. Have you removed the battery and made sure the
contacts are dry? If not then I would try that or take the battery out and then
use a hair dryer on its low setting and dry it out for 5-10 minutes to make
sure it's completely dry. If not then it need to be repaired or replaced.
Laptop won’t turn on please help?
Laptop shuts down out of nowhere I
have a cooling pad for it because fan doesn’t work now when I try to turn it on
all I get is Toshiba leading innovation. That’s it; it won’t start up or
anything. What do I do?
Here is my answer:
if it's only saying the Toshiba leading innovation screen
then it's not completing a post test
(Power On Self Test) and something inside the laptop is bad or lose and since you said the fan doesn't work then it may have overheated anyway even with the cooling pad ether because it's dusty inside the laptop vents or the fan went bad.
But in any case you might need to take it to a shop or if it's old (3-5 years) then i would replace it with a new machine.
