Wombat Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Black screen. My Asus PC is turned on but has a black screen. Can not be turned off using the power button. Can not open screen. Quote
KenB Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Hi and welcome to ExTS 1 - Is this a laptop ? 2. -If so ......... Do you have a monitor that you can plug in and try ? You may have to use the Fn key and F5 or F8 to toggle between the screen and monitor. Look for 2 rectangular symbols on the F keys. 3. - Can you hear anything coming from the machine? [ hard drive spinning / Windows startup chimes ] 4. - You posted this in the phones / Android forum. I am assuming that this is not what you wanted?

Wombat Posted May 22, 2020 Author Posted May 22, 2020 You are correct, it is a ASUS laptop. In fact I went to the ASUS site and found a solution in their FAQ's. All sorted now. Thanks for your response. Quote
KenB Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Glad to hear that you got it sorted. If you could post what you did to fix it - this may help others. :) Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!

Wombat Posted May 22, 2020 Author Posted May 22, 2020 Held down the power button for some time until the PC powered down. Then powered it up again and it re-booted normally. Quote
KenB Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Thanks for that. I am sure somebody with the same problem will benefit from this :) Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !! MiniToolBoxNetwork TestWireless Test
