if its not the monitor will it be the graphics card?

no i have no mates either and im not at work at the moment, busy with other ventures, all i can think of is taking my monitor into my local PCworld and asking if theyll test it for me then of course ill be stuck there having to buy a new one from them at full retail

i dont have another monitor, what could i do?

soz it was function f9

ive tried it function f8 all this does is freeze the laptop screen and nothing comes up on the pc monitor

hhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllppppppppppp????????

is the monitor finished?:confused:

the laptop makes the connected to me noise and it brings up the no signal message on the screen of the monitor

ok ive plugged it into the laptop with the multipin connector wire that was plugged into the graphics card and nothing has happened:eek:

i have 3 days then i go away to france for 5 weeks

i dont have a spare monitor just the laptop

ive checked all the cables a few minutes ago and they seem to be fine

its an onboard graphics cant remember how big either 64 or 128 navidia and no i dont hear any beeps when i boot up the pc im reluctant to boot it up too many times as windows might screw up if i keep switching the p:eek:ower off

monitor has green power light and displays video input no signal for about 5 seconds then goes to an amber light and black screen:eek:

no absolutely nothing comes up on the screen so i have no starting point although i can hear and see the machine powering up and hear it running there is nothing at all on the screen just black
