Question Tablet Mode Problem (M200)

Hey guys,

straight to the problem:

when i fold over my screen and turn it into tablet mode, the screen turns off.
no rotation is happening. its just like as if i would close the screen.

ive been fiddling around for a while now trying to find the problem, but i cant.

thanks for the help.

My Acer Travelmate C200 did the same thing. In the power options, which can be found in the Control Panel, there's an option in there that deals with actions for the computer to take when the "lid" closes, which is what your tablet thinks is happening.

The Toshiba power settings are set up a little different but mine can be located in Control Panel -> Power Options. I've got the Acer Empowering Technology panel there but under the Advanced Settings there's a tab that reads "Power Button and Password" and under that are the settings to tell it what to do when you "close the lid". Try that and see if that helps any.
