SPECS:
The laptop is a DELL, Inspiron 15, N5010.
The graphic card is AMD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650/5470/4200/550v.
I installed two OS, Manjaro KDE and Windows 7.
THE PROBLEM:
When I turn on the laptop nothing displays. Usually the boot menu is displayed giving me a choice between the OS installed. But now when I turn on the laptop the screen won't turn on; but if I leave it like that Manjaro KDE is eventually selected after 5 sec timeout, then screen eventually switches on but with issues.
Manjaro KDE boots up saying:
It says `[radeon] *ERROR* UVD not responding, trying to reset the VCPU!
And when it does either the screen is less the display is slightly garbled or completely garbled.
If I select Windows 7 or try to enter BIOS nothing is displayed on the screen. I don't think the screen is even switched on then. Mind you when the laptop starts nothing is displayed (the display is on only when Manjaro boots up), I know hitting `DEL` key will go to BIOS and selectiong the third option by pressing `down key` two times gets me to windows.
