Black Screen When Unplugged From Charger

[Daniel_318]

I just got a Lenovo Y700 laptop, it works fine when it is plugged in, but when i unplug the charger, the screen stays on for a few seconds, then turns black (with a backlight). The keyboard is still lit up as well as the power button light and other lights. Any solution??

Try checking for "Sleep Mode" issues... Sometimes they are set to turn off the display when running only on battery, or when plugged in to charge, etc.

1. Go into "Control Panel" and click the "Power Options".
2. Next to the plan that is currently selected click "Change Plan Settings".
3. Now click "Change Advanced Power Settings".
4. Locate the option for running on battery and make sure it is set to never sleep.
5. Change/set it to allow.
6. Click "OK".
7. Finally shut down and power up the computer.
