Why does the screen of my PACKARD BELL EASYNOTE TE69KB-12504G1TMNSK laptop turn black on startup?

Question

Accepted Answer

If the screen of your PACKARD BELL EASYNOTE TE69KB turns black on startup, the power management system may have automatically turned off the screen to save energy. Start by pressing any key to wake it up.

If this action does not turn the screen back on, here are the three most likely causes and how to resolve them:

Brightness too low: The brightness level may be set to minimum. Press the Fn + Brightness+ key (usually identified by a sun symbol) to gradually increase the brightness. You should see the display return quickly.
Display switched to an external monitor: The display may be configured for an external device. Press the Fn + Display Switch key to toggle the display between the internal display screen, an external monitor (if connected), and both simultaneously. The computer has VGA and HDMI ports for this function.
Sleep mode activated: If the Sleep indicator is lit on the front panel, the computer is in Sleep mode. Press and release the power button to resume normal operation.

If the screen remains black after these checks, disconnect any external USB devices (USB flash drive, Smartphone, etc.) and attempt a complete restart. Turning off the computer using the Fn + W keys or through the Windows 8 Charms menu, then turning it back on after a few seconds may also resolve a temporary power management issue.
