could someone tell me how fix it
2007-01-04 07:29:45 · 11 answers · asked by luke j 2 in Computers & Internet ➔ Hardware ➔ Monitors
1) Make sure that the power cable and the cable from the monitor-to-computer is connected. Then press the power button on the monitor AND computer.
2) If that does not help, then shake the monitor a little; if possible.
3) If that doesn't help, then it could be your video card. If the video card is busted, then the computer can't send or receieve video stuff from or to other devices.
4) Try connecting your monitor to another computerl if possible.
5) Or try connecting another monitor to the computer.
6) If none of these help, then your only choice is to buy a new monitor.
7) To buy a new monitor, you can go to www.froogle.com and search for monitors and select a price range.
8) I would recommend that you go to www.hp.com and purchase a new HP monitor, since they have the best computer products; as far as I have known.
Good luck!

Usually if you have a generic computer that you bought from dell or something then your computer most likely doesnt have a graphics card just something called onboard video, so if that is the case i would buy a cheap graphics card, Like said before i would check the connections first, I fix comps all day and you have no idea how many times thats happened to me.

This may sound like a smart *** answer, but have you made certain that your computer screen is on? Or plugged in completely?
You would be amazed at the many times this happens and no one thinks to check the connections!

i assume you will desire to shutdown and chilly boot the laptop. go into secure mode and run msconfig.exe start up>Run click on the startup tab and uncheck all boxes and reboot. go away that way. See if problem keeps. attempt switching the ram modules around or memory sticks. examine for dirt in the laptop and your followers.go away laptop off for some hours. Reseat your video card if no longer on the motherboard,yet slot.

Make sure that the monitor is hooked up to your computer properly. Make sure it is on. Sometimes you might need to install the driver for the monitor.

That doesn't sound good,usually if you have a completely blank screen it means your hard drive has had it! Anyway,how are you writing this question if you can't see anything? Hmmmm strange.......!!

Check the connection and try to reinstall your computer.

Try changing the brightness and contrast....... I do wonder though, how did you manage to post this question if you can't see anything on the monitor.....?!
