blank when you turn on

The LifeBook is set for an
external monitor only.
Pressing [F10] while holding down the [Fn] key
allows you to change your selection of where to
send your display video. Each time you press the
combination of keys you will step to the next
choice. The choices, in order are: built-in display
only, external monitor only, both built-in display
and external monitor.
The angle of the display
and the brightness settings
are not adequate for your
lighting conditions.
Move the display and the brightness control until
you have adequate visibility.

outs may be set for very short
intervals and you failed to
notice the display come on
and go off again.
Press any button or key on the keyboard, or move
the mouse to restore operation. If that fails, push the
