Monitor Problem

Post by rambo »

Basically, My problem is that my system starts up, but my monitor doesn't.

I have rebooted my computer numerous times, connected another monitor to my system, and I still get the same problem..

It's not beeping or anything and I read somewhere that if it's not beeping and the monitor isn't turning on it's the motherboard?

~I will try to remove the BIOS battery instructed in a thread I read regarding the monitor not turning on..

Any help is appreciated.

I am facing the same problem from past several months.
System starts up as usual, i Get beep codes and startup sound. But no monitor display.

It happens and goes away after several tries. Cudn't find the exact problem and solution...

beep codes tell you what the problem is.. :wink:
have a look here: http://www.computerhope.com/beep.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

it can even be a bad sign when no beep codes at all appear, because then it can point to a severe problem that even disables the BIOS processes. that's why I asked rambo about HDD activity...if there is activity and it looks like the system is booting but only the screen stays black it's a good sign.
