• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

last night,i turned off my desktop as normal,and the monitor went black..odd thing is,,normally the pc would shutdown,and the monitor would have a small box that said "no digital signal"..but it was just black/blank....but i was tired and went to bed..this morning i went to power up my system,,i heard the windows "song" ect...had my back turned as i took care of ms haley and my meds...and then turned around to a black screen...i turned things on and off several times..was hearing the windows tune everytime..but never did see the "no digital signal" box when the monitor was on by itself...the blue light for the power is on...

im on my laptop now.....but how can i test my desktop to see if its the monitor?..or the video card? i dont have a "spare monitor"...i dont mind buying a new one..mater of fact this is a good exscuse to buy a bigger one...lol...but i hate to buy one and have it be the video card...
 
Make sure the connection for video display from the desktop to the monitor is securely in place. Little four-footed critters sometimes brush up against things and dislodge them.
