Well not really but it's not concetting with my comp or something. I can get my comp into windows (I know this because the LCD screen on my G15 shows the clock) but I get nothing on my moniter. I have a Dell 2405FPW (Digital) 1920x1200 as my moniter and two SLi NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT video cards. The moniter is about two years old and the video cards are one year old.

help please.

I'm not that good with computers but are you sure the monitor is plugged in? I'm not trying to make a joke, just giving a suggestion.

Blank. No bios no nothing. When I press buttons on the thing it tells me it is in sleep mode and I should press a key on my keyboard.

Is that resolution too high for your monitor? Shouldn't be...

make sure your monitor isnt using the analog input. there should be a button on the front with a little arrow on a screen. push that button to toggle between analog and digital.

your monitor isnt gettin a signal. which means 1 of 3 things.

your cable is bad

the output/s on your video card are bad

your monitor is bad.

process of elimination ftw.

I tried using a different cable, no go. Tomorrow I'll be able to switch out moniters. If the moniter is the case, then well my sisters will get to enjoy a new 1920x1200
