I got a new desktop and it doesn't work. Well atleast, my monitor doesn't, the computer and the monitor both starts up but the monitor only says "No signal" while the computer seems to run fine.

Don't fucking get in here and laugh at me then leave. Give me solutions dammit. I can see you Tore and schizo

Connect them?
-
I have :c Two cables are going from monitor to PC, DVI and something called Sub :c
-
Does your computer have a graphics card separate from the motherboard? Are you plugging the DVI cable into the graphics card, and if you are, is the graphics card connected to the motherboard?
-
I don't know, what i know is that i got suicidal toughts for not getting this to work. The DVI port on the monitor says DVI so i connected the DVI cable to the DVI port at the desktop :s
-
Well the best way to find out is to look. Take off the panel and open your computer up, find out what you're plugging the cable into. If your tower powering on, and your monitor is powering on, and you have the right setting on the monitor (try pressing buttons until it works), then it's probably a communication issue between the tower and the monitor.

Too afraid to open it up :c Butan says as its ordered over the internet and its dedicated it shouldnt be a problem with the port. And my monitor only got one button (Power) so i'm not sure how to change the format :s
-
Oh and it's DVI digital if that helps :rolleyes:

Maybe you have to deactivate the onboard video card in bios and activate the PCIe one. Also, please unplug the D-Sub cable and only use DVI. Another possible problem could be that you have a highres monitor but no DVI dual link cable (see picture below). And finally, what is possible is that your video card is not getting enough juice from the power supply. Did you connect the small black 4 or 6 pin plugs that are usually on the card's end that is opposite to the external interfaces?

It would help if you told us exactly what computer you have.

Didn't get much of that :oops: But thanks for helping anyways

Step by step. First, unplug the D-Sub cable. Then check the ports on your computer, maybe you have two DVI ports. Make sure you plug it into the lower one.

For being such a smartass, it sure takes you a long time to figure out...
Well, have fun!
