LOL, that is called an All-in-One computer.
You might try this Lenovo Ideapad Support & downloads - Lenovo - Drivers & Downloads and use option 3. Hopefully the Lenovo tool can help here.

A little tid bit that might help. Go to msconfig/Start Up and see if their is a program running in start up causing this problem.
Thank you. I had a look and I disabled Lenovo Screensaver with high hopes that that was it, but sadly no it is still going onto black screen while I am watching slideshow or video or even read something online. There were many programs that come up under start up but I have no idea what most of them are doing so I did not dare to disable any of them in case I case something else not to work properly
Any other suggestions?
Thanks.
Sorry I'm out of ideas and thinking maybe you have some bad hardware? The msconfig idea is a good one LB mentioned.
Is you PC still under warranty?
...We posted at the same time. Please post a screenshot of msconfig with Startup tab open. Screenshots and Files - Upload and Post in Seven Forums
Good, before you (we) go crazy trying to fix it, see if you can return it ro have the seller fix it for you. Once the warranty is up, the problem will be your.
OK, you can use the snipping tool to capture these screens, I suggested a cam for your BIOS because you can't snip them.
Try disabling all startup items EXCEPT McAfee, reboot, and see if that helps. If so, re-enable things one at a time until the issues reappears, then you've isolated the problem...maybe.
You don;t really need QuickTime, Facebook, iTunes, Google Toolbar, and such to be in start-up, you can always start them when you need them. With so many thing starting it really has a negative impact on your system's performance. I suppose much of that came from Lenovo as bloatware, they are good at that.

I have 3 check marks in Start Up. I would bet a dollar against a dough nut hole that one of those things in Start Up is causing your problem. MSE, Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Everything else starts when I click on them.
