Ok, I have a Sony VIO VGN-TZ340 and I am running Windows Vista Premium Home Edition. My screen goes black, well actually its like the back light goes out because if i tilt the screen under a brigt light I can actually see the screen and everything. The only temporary solution that I have found for this, is to push the power button to manually put my laptop into sleep mode, then power back on to resume what ever I was doing at the time. This happens RANDOMLY, when I web search, when I photoshop, when I iTUNES, but the funny thing is it never does it when I watch videos that I have on my laptop, not DVD's, I dont watch DVDs on my laptop. Is there anything that anyone can suggest? I am greatful for any help that can be given. Thanks. -wickedCHUBBS
try updating your graphics drivers and all your driver come to think of it because vista has alot of glitchs with drivers. EDIT: check your power settings to because they could be wrong aswell.
How do I do complete Driver update? or do I have to do each individually? Thank you for your input.. -wickedCHUBBS
you will have to download each driver then install them 1 at a time. then make sure you reboot after every driver installation.
So, I know it might be annoying to you, but where do I get the drivers from? From the Sony website? From M$ website? Thank you for being patient and helping me out with this. wickedCHUBBS
