Display Does Not Work Properly

If Nothing is Displayed on the Screen

If nothing is displayed on the screen, but the PC starts and the
keyboard and other peripheral devices seem to operate properly:
1 Ensure that you have entered the correct password, if one is
required to use this PC.
2 Check that the display's brightness and contrast controls are
properly set.
3 Ensure that the display video cable is correctly connected.
4 Make sure that the display is plugged in and switched ON.
5 Switch off the display, and unplug it from the power outlet.
Disconnect the video cable and examine the video cable connector
pins. If the pins are bent, carefully straighten them.

Other Display Problems

If the display image is not aligned with the screen, use the display's
controls to center the image (refer to the display manual for
instructions). Check your display manual to find out which refresh rate
is required. Use your operating system's display control panel to select
the correct refresh rate.
