TC4200 black out display problem

I am having display issues with my TC4200, which is only a month or so old. Whenever I close the lid, the screen goes black. Recently, when I go to re-open the lid, the screen remains black. I cannot seem to do anything using the function buttons or display button to get the screen back. Sometimes I can rotate the tablet screen around to get the display back, but otherwise I have to connect it to an external monitor and then flip between displays. I think it might have something to do with the power management options? Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry, I don't know how this ended up in the Win Server forum. Can a moderator please move this to the laptop/tablet PC discussion forum? Thanks!

I am having the exact same issue. Any resolution for this yet?

Wow, I can't believe it's 4 years later and someone finally replied.

Anyway, I updated my displays drivers some time ago from the HP website and I don't really seem to have this problem anymore. When it does remain blacked-out usually just rotating the screen is enough to get the display back. The "permanent" black out problem no longer seems to happen.
