I'm trying to sell this laptop but I can't do it without first fixing
this display problem. Its Dell Inspiron 8200 with ultra xga or
something display. Whenever I try to change display resolution, the
screen goes blanks. Although all programs are running, its just the
display thats not working. The weird thing is that when a/c adapter is
connected the login screen goes blank but when booting up using battery
power, everything is fine. This may be because of the bios setting of
battery using dim setting and a/c using full brightness setting.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.



Sounds like a display driver problem. Make sure you have current display drivers for your display hardware.
