Default blank display

Recently my display has come up blank or just black. One time I had left it
in STAND-BY mode and when I returned and touched a key to reactivate there
was nothing. The other time it occurred when I powered on my computer, the
screen displayed nothing. On both occasions the restart button did the trick.
What is this an indication of? Thanks for any input.

It probably indicates that the screen is switching itself to a low power
state. Look up the operator's manual and see if there's a way to disable
the inbuilt power saving.
