Ok I am going to assume that your monitor just went blank.

Hopefully you have checked the mains cable to the monitor and it is plugged in both at the monitor and at the wall outlet.

If it is connected to your graphics output on your pc, you should see a small led on the front illuminated, probably orange if it is standby or green if on fully. If you do not see a led illuminated, recheck your power connection.

If all is good there and you do not see anything at all on screen, chances are that you have a dead monitor.

If you see the words "No Signal" or something similar, then you have a graphics device issue.

Please don't be tempted to open the back of the monitor as there are Capacitors that retain VVHigh voltages even when the monitor has been off for a while.

That looks to be quite an old monitor, so I wouldn't be suprised if it has gone to monitor heaven.


Hope that helps.
