I need help with the XPS laptop that we have. When we start up the computer a lot of times it doesn't start up the LCD screen. The computer is running, its just that nothing comes on the screen - it just turns off. Here is what happens:
I press the power button.
Bios loads.
Windows loading screen comes up and loads.
Then it turns off. Would this be because its a regular installation of Windows? Are there special drivers for LCD screens? I have tried the Dell video drivers from their website, and the Omega drivers (which say they support the Mobility 9700,) but have had no success. The funny thing is that that when I boot into safe mode it loads up just fine, but I still can't play 3d games or use the internet. Can someone offer help?
