Hi Steven, I've had the same problem, actually last April just after the machine was seen by a tech at CSUN. I did several resets, all kinds, options menu braille display, all kinds of stuff. I finally got it to come back but I can't really remember exactly what brought it back. Does it display any braille at all? When it happened to me, the machine would display "starting keysoft." Then it would go blank. This is how I was convinced that there was no real hardware problem. As I said, it came back, but not sure exactly how. What I do know is that there are still problems. Occasionally there are dots which don't come up. This is unpredictable, because sometimes they'll pop up, and sometimes not. At first hw said it was a software, but we tried some things and it didn't fix the problem. I just loaded build 54, but no change. My advice is to keep trying the resets, make sure the power is connected. To go options and make sure braille display is on. At some point the silly thing will realize it has a perfectly goot display. I'm planning to send my machine in but I can't now because I'm teaching a class. Good luck. Rusty

Hi Steve: Try going from the Main Menu, and go into the Options Menu. Press F. Do this several times, and see if it will bring your display up.
