PC powers up but no input to the monitor

HBM · 1 Aug 2014 at 16:25

Hi Guys,
I recently undertook a PC build and its done, however the PC powers on, but there is no BIOS input to the monitor. Any ideas? The mono, fans, GPU all power up but no input.
Help please!

You chose the General dicussion on a computer forum for this topic huh? haha

Tried plugging the monitor directly into the motherboard?

Have you tried turning it off and on again

Try sitting on it.

Have you tried shouting at it ? When I have problems in life, I find shouting makes them better.

poo through its HDMI port

Thanks for the replies. I tried pooing into it but the HDMI port was too small! Oh and aiiting on it broke the case. The cable is connected into the mother board but still no luck.

Now you will appreciate why general discussion was not the best place to post haha

Very quickly flick the PSU switch on and off for 10 minutes.

If you have a gfx card then your monitor cable should be connected to that and not the motherboard port.

If that doesn't work, shout at it !

Mustard on the HDMI contacts usually helps.

Not too much, though, you don't want to know what happened to the last guy who did that.

And head over to General Hardware for more constructive suggestions

HBM · 1 Aug 2014 at 16:38

OK thanks anyway

This! Unless there is a letterbox handy!

All else fails, remember to ring Gamestop about the new Battletoads sequel because my dad kills queen bees for a living.

Also, don't forget....
