Monitor Problems

There is no display on the screen.

Check that the monitor’s power switch is on and that its power

light is lit.

Also, the computer may be in low-power standby mode. When

you press a mouse button or a key on the keyboard, see if the

monitor displays an image.

The power light is on, but you still do not see anything on

the screen.

Press a mouse button or a key on the keyboard to see if the
computer is in low-power standby mode. Also, check the

brightness and contrast controls.

If you still do not see anything on the screen, make sure the

monitor is securely connected to the computer.

If you installed a display adapter card, make sure your monitor

and display adapter match. Also check to see if the card’s
switches or jumpers and the jumpers on the system board are
set properly. See Chapter 3 for system board jumper

information.

If you are running an application program, see if you need to

set up the program for the type of monitor and display adapter

you have. Also make sure you are using the appropriate

monitor and display adapter for your software.

The powerswitch is on but the powerlight is not on.

If the monitor is Energy Star compliant, it may be in low-power

standby mode. Press a mouse button or a key on the keyboard

to activate the monitor.
