I've a Packard Bell desktop PC running Vista Home Premium. Have had it for a couple of years. Have kept up to date with all relevant updates.
On Sunday when I turned on my PC and screen the screen did not display (remained black). Windows loaded and I then turned the screen off and turned it back on again and lo-and-behold the display was OK and remained OK thereafter. The same happened on Monday so I did a system restore to last Friday (when all was working OK). Today (tuesday) the same - black screen on start-up - occured. I had not added any software between Friday and Sunday, I do not use any 'hibernation' type functionality.
If I do a restart the screen displays OK.
Help I'm a bit lost as to what may be causing this behaviour ?
Any advice greatly received
Thanks
