Chosen Solution

So I am currently having a problem with a computer screen I have. Whenever I turn the computer on and then turn on my screen, the screen just turns white and like blank. I don’t know what to do, so I just try to turn off the screen and then turn it on a few minutes later. But that never works! I can’t even use the screen. It’s always white, no matter what. Does it have to do with the graphics card or something? Can anyone please help me with my problem? Thanks.

Same thing has happened with my computer screen. While I was using it, suddenly it would just turn white. So I told my parents, and my dad brought it to a computer guy to fix. The guy said it had to do with the board that is inside your computer (directly under your keyboard). They have to replace the board inside with a new one. What caused this to happen is that on the side of your computer there is something that is breathing out air and you might have just laid it down on a couch/bed and it suffocates because you are covering the holes that are trying to breathe. This causes the board inside to melt. Hope this helped you xxxx Truly, Sabrina

Do you have a display or a monitor? If it’s a monitor, try plugging it into a computer and turning them both on. You might consider telling us what you have.

Hey, I got the same problem it’s not your dell tower but it’s the screen…. cause I took off my cable and connected my Cpu to another screen and it worked, I even tried it on my TV through VGA Cable…. and it works. The Solution: Turn on your computer Turn on the Monitor, if it is white(Blank) then press the power button to turn it off and turn it on instanly. The Screen will continue to be white, then again turn off the monitor and unplug it.(NOTE: Unplug only the Monitor) Now after one minute plug it and turn it on. It will work…cause I just did it so that I could google search the problem and I fell on this forum….

try starting in safe mode with command prompt( hit f8 upon booting up) type explorer in the command prompt and use system restore to the closest point (system restore cannot be undone in safe mode.)then either download a reliable malware disinfecting programme or run the one on your system as I think the white screen is a nasty Trojan that needs to be removed.

Step1- Disconnect monitor with computer. Simply switch on only monitor. If u don’t see “no signal” clearly without white display, then I’m sure its monitor trouble. Buy new or repair it. Step2- if u see no signal message clearly then problem is with your graphic card.

The problem is most likely a capacitor inside your monitor, they burn out after a while, so you might be able to fix it by replacing the bad one. If you’re lucky you can spot a bad one by checking if the top metal flat is bulging. For reference you can look at this link, the second picture shows what I’m talking about: http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?a… Whiteouts and blackouts can also be caused by other components, so replacing the capacitor may or may not fix the problem.

If you’re troubleshooting a PC monitor (not a laptop), then disconnect everything and plug your power cable into the wall and turn your monitor power button on. If the screen is white, the issue is with the monitor. If the screen displays that it’s not receiving a signal, then it’s a graphics card issue. If it’s white, then it’s likely blown capacitor/s.

it may be some thing wrong with your video card. try in another computer.

as soon as you start your computer you have to press F8 key continuously until unless you cannot see any option..and later you will safe mode you have to start you compuiter on safe mode….

it probably is caused by a damaged LCD, the best option for a case like this would be to get it replace or you can use a cable like HDMI or what works for you computer to project the screen display to another monitor, that is if you want to save time and money.

Someone else posted it may be battery To test first remove power cord then remove battery press start if it tries to start up then it’s most likely you need a new battery I got one on eBay My laptop is HP and the replacement number is written on the battery All works fine now

Jordan this is Israel check your pc system board and look at the capacitors on the board if any is blown out replace them immediately and you will be on

My laptop screen display was appearing white alongwith lines. I changed the screen connector cable but the problem was not resolved. I also changed the sceen but problem was still there. Finally, all screws of laptop casing were opened to investigate the route cause. On removing all the screws, the screen display became normal. Now screws were fitted one by one to find problematic screw. It was found that the screw that tighten the screen hinge with laptop motherboard casing was causing problem. When it was removed/ loosen then screen display became normal. Basically this screw was causing short circuiting of motherboard due to which screen display was getting white. I hope that other users may get some idea from resolution of my white laptop screen problem.

I have a PLC screen which I use to control operation in a machine that produces plastic cups , thermoforming process) how ever during testing of the. Machine it gradually turns white now it’s all white and can’t figure out any control..
