Monitor Questions
Why doesn’t anything display on my monitor screen when I
boot my system?
If the monitor power indicator is not lit, turn on the monitor power. Check
the power cable connection from the monitor to the power outlet.
Next, check for a loose video cable connection. Make sure that the video
cable from your monitor to the computer is tightly secured.
If you still have a problem, see “Monitor Problems” in Chapter 6 of this
guide.
Why is my monitor “flickering?”
A low refresh rate can cause flickering. The lighting in the area might also
cause it.
To select the correct refresh rate (or any other video attribute), right click
the Windows desktop and click
Properties
. The Settings tab on the
Display Properties window offers various setup features for your video
display.
You can select the resolution, number of colors, and monitor type.
Selecting the monitor type sets the refresh rate for your monitor.
Why is the image scrolling up on my monitor screen?
A loose video cable connection, a bent video cable pin, or a video setting
can cause a monitor to lose synchronization. Be sure your system is set
correctly for the monitor.
Where can I get video drivers for my monitor?
To select video drivers (and other display attributes) click the Windows
desktop, then click
Properties
. Select the video driver for the monitor by
selecting the Settings tab in the Display Properties window.
