Hello
For a while now, whenever I move the laptop lid, even ever so slightly. The display goes blank. The only way I can get it back on is to power down the machine.
I assumed this was failing hardware and decided to live with it.
Yesterday I had to boot to safe mode for a some other reason. But in doing so noticed that the display remained lit when moving the lid.
This led me to do a fresh reinstall of windows 7.
Having reinstalled Windows 7 with no additional programmes. The problem remains.
Is there any setting I can use to disable whatever is switching off the display?
To clarify in safe mode I can freely move the lid and the display remains, but on a fresh windows reinstall. The display goes blank and only returns with a forced power down.
Thanks for reading.
