Monitor

Your server is running but there is no picture

Adjust the brightness and contrast controls to the center position.

Make sure that the monitor is plugged in and turned on. If the monitor
is turned on, the power LED should be lit.

Check the port and cable for bent or damaged pins.

Connect your monitor to another computer, or connect a monitor that
you know works to your server.

The color is not uniform

Make sure that the monitor warms up for at least 30 minutes before making a
final judgment about color uniformity.

Make sure that:

The monitor is not positioned too close to another monitor, electric fan,
or fluorescent light.

You demagnetize the screen using the monitor’s degauss feature. For more
information on degauss, see the monitor’s documentation.
