More Computer Problems
    #6160689 - 10/12/06 12:56 AM (17 years, 4 months ago)

This has to do with my actual monitor.

So I turned my computer on about 4 hours ago and I let it run a defrag. I turned my monitor off as I usually do when running things such as this. When I came back to it about 20 minutes ago the monitor would not turn on. There is a light on the front that goes orange when the monitor is not recieving a signal and green when it is recieving a signal. The light wasnt a solid color, it was blinking orange. At first I thought something was loose so I tightened all the cords associated with the monitor. Next I tried turning everything off in my room for about 3 minutes and then turned it all back on (this included all powerstrips going off and back on). The problem continued. I tried using different wires going from my monitor to the video card, but with no luck. The only thing I can think of is maybe a defective power supply for it? Does that seem plausable or does it sound like the monitor died for no reason? I am not on a different monitor with a different power supply but the same cord from the video card to the back of it. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance guys.

Your monitor has died. Weep for 15 seconds, toss it and get another one.

It's not your power supply. Go get a new monitor.

How can you be sure the monitor died? And what would make it die so easily? It was working fine up until I turned it off. It just doesnt make sense that it would die for no reason. Any ideas as to why?
