Aspire ES-576G screen stays black after leaving laptop closed, but computer is still on

norseman

I've been having a problem for a few months now where I open my computer up to pick back up where I left off and the screen doesn't come back on. The keys will light up when pressed and the blue lights are on. I end up always having to hold the power button the turn it off. This usually happens after I've left my computer on overnight, plugged in, or after several hours also plugged in.

I've also tried using different function F keys but nothing brings it back.

Try turning it on with the FN+F6 toggle key combo. If it still doesn't work, then open Control Panel. Search button. Click 'change what the power buttons do' in left pane. Try changing 'when I close the lid' setting to 'do nothing' to see what happens. The screen should shut off when closed but leaves the rest of the system in a low power idle state. If it works OK when opening the lid, then change all the settings to sleep mode and check it again.
