Display problems 
Here are some typical display problems and their solutions:
The screen is blank.
Display Auto Off may have gone into effect. Press any key to 
activate the screen.
You may have activated the instant password feature by 
pressing 
Fn
and
F1 
simultaneously. If you have registered a 
password, press any key, type the password and press 
Enter
. If 
no password is registered, press any key. The screen 
reactivates and allows you to continue working.
If you are using the built-in screen, make sure the display 
priority is not set for an external monitor. To do this, press 
Fn
 
and 
F5
 simultaneously (once). If this does not correct the 
problem, press 
Fn
 and 
F5 
simultaneously again to return the 
display priority to its previous setting.
HINT: Holding the Fn key and pressing the F5 key several 
times will advance you through the display options.
If you are using an external monitor:
Check that the monitor is turned on.
Check that the monitor’s power cord/cable is firmly 
plugged into a working power outlet.
Check that the cable connecting the external monitor to 
the computer is firmly attached.
Try adjusting the contrast and brightness controls on the 
external monitor.
Press 
Fn
 and 
F5
 simultaneously to make sure the display 
priority is not set for the built-in screen.
