monitor hook up problems
« on: July 08, 2007, 05:36:50 PM »
I just moved from one apartment to another.  My system was working fine before.  When I hooked up the system in my new apartment, my monitor woudl not turn on, but instead would "blink" with a very quick blue screen, then immediately go black again.  IT would do this every 10-15 seconds until the power was shut off.

I have re booted, and unplugged and replugged the monitor.

Any suggestions for me would be appreciated.

You may need to check the monitor's connections...

Also you may need to see if the video card came loose during the move.

Make sure the computer is off when you make these checks...and if you're going inside the computer...protect it from ESD (Electrostatic discharge by keeping yourself grounded.  Static electricity can fry a motherboard...so be careful.
