Ok dell laptop screen?

Have a Dell laptop and it works ok while running on battery but when using ac adapter the screen blacks out.?

  • Closing lid and reopening allows screen to come back on.Have checked power settings and replaced adapter but no luck, any help would be appreciated.

  • Answer:

    Yes Dell laptops do that kind of thing because that's what I have got to send you my answer and it's happened to me. The problem could be with the power control. If your OS is windows XP...click start...control panel click on power options and in the boxes next to 'Turn off monitor' choose "never" for plug and battery and also for turning off hard disks and for system standby...set it for "After 5hrs". Click apply. That's what mine is set at and it's working OK. Good luck with your Dell laptop.
