blank by itself after
you have been
using it for a period
of time.
Your system

on when the

Possible Cause
Power On Self Test
(POST) has detected a
failure which does not
allow the display to
operate.
The notebook has gone
into Video timeout,
Standby mode, Suspend
mode or Save-to-Disk
mode because you have
not used it for a period of
time.
The power management
time-outs may be set for
very short intervals and
you failed to notice the
display come on and go
off again.
The system may be
password-protected.
A foreign object, such as a
paper clip, is stuck
between the display and
the keyboard.
If the spots are very tiny
and few in number, this is
normal for a large LCD
display.
If the spots are numerous
or large enough to
interfere with your
operation needs.
