My computer screen is just turning white on startup?

"Same thing has happened with my computer screen. While I was using it, suddenly it would just turn white. So I told my parents, and my dad brought it to a computer guy to fix. The guy said it had to do with the board that is inside your computer (directly under your keyboard). They have to replace the board inside with a new one. What caused this to happen is that on the side of your computer there is something that is breathing out air and you might have just laid it down on a couch/bed and it suffocates because you are covering the holes that are trying to breathe. This causes the board inside to melt. Hope this helped you xxxx

Do you have a display or a monitor? If it's a monitor, try plugging it into a computer and turning them both on. You might consider telling us what you have.

"Hey, I got the same problem it's not your dell tower but it's the screen....

cause I took off my cable and connected my Cpu to another screen and it worked, I even tried it on my TV through VGA Cable.... and it works.

The Solution:

Turn on your computer

Turn on the Monitor, if it is white(Blank) then press the power button to turn it off and turn it on instanly.

The Screen will continue to be white, then again turn off the monitor and unplug it.(NOTE: Unplug only the Monitor) Now after one minute plug it and turn it on.

It will work...cause I just did it so that I could google search the problem and I fell on this forum...."

try starting in safe mode with command prompt( hit f8 upon booting up) type explorer in the command prompt and use system restore to the closest point (system restore cannot be undone in safe mode.)then either download a reliable malware disinfecting programme or run the one on your system as I think the white screen is a nasty Trojan that needs to be removed.

"Step1- Disconnect monitor with computer. Simply switch on only monitor. If u don't see ""no signal"" clearly without white display, then I'm sure its monitor trouble. Buy new or repair it.

Step2- if u see no signal message clearly then problem is with your graphic card."
