Display wont turn on BUT it does randomly. Doesn't turn off in use.

[AssBlaster]

This issue is driving me nuts.

My laptop turns on, but the display wont. BUT, the display turns on only when it wants to. I normally turn my computer off and on, as well as sleep to on, and EVENTUALLY it will work after I caress the laptop and ask nicely.

I would like it to work every time I open my laptop (obviously) so if anyone happens to have any suggestions I am all for it.

Note: I am using my laptop right now with the display on, with no issues. As soon as I turn it off, I will have to turn off/on repeatedly until the display turns on again.

I have:

1. Updated BIOS, chipset, and Display Drivers.

2. Plugged into an external monitor (working)

3. Restarted an unfathomable number of times.

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, 

I understand that your HP notebook display is not working correctly. I appreciate your efforts to try and resolve the issue. 

The last thing I can suggest trying to restore a computer back to the factory default, which will isolate whether it’s a software or hardware issue. 

The HP Cloud Recovery Tool allows you to download recovery software to a USB drive. You can use the downloaded recovery image file in order to install the Windows operating system.
