Postby paulelliott » Sun Oct 09, 2011 1:53 am UTC

hi all,

How can i fix my AOC monitor that keeps saying "no signal" and nothings happen? I am running Windows 7 Home Basic. The cord is properly connected monitor and cpu.

Thanks in advance.

Is this a new computer? New monitor?

If it's used, when did it stop working?

Do you have a known-good monitor you can use to test if your computer is giving video output?

Can you test the monitor on a computer that is known to give video output?

How can you possibly know that? It could just as easily be that the video card is dead, or that the cable is broken, or any number of other things.

Kirby has the right idea here.

Oops. Didn't mean to feed the necro-troll.

Yeah... of all the things to just blindly assume are the problem, I'd be curious to hear the reasoning that led to "RAM" in this case...

I call troll. In another thread, (his only other post), he reccomended reinstalling Windows and then replacing the RAM.

--edit--

I was going to add something more useful to OP, but just noticed the dates. How far back did he dig to bring up this thread?
