Solve : Monitor often not recognized on startup? |
|
Answer» Often, but not always when I boot up my PC, the monitor doesn't get a signal. I have to then turn off PC, turn off monitor, unplug PC, monitor and HDMI cable between PC and monitor, wair a moment and plug everything back. Then it works fine. What needs to be set correctly? unplug PC, monitor and HDMI cable between PC and monitor, wait a moment and plug everything back. A simple reboot of these should fix this... Is disconnecting and RECONNECTING really necessary to get the display back? I have had a picky video card before where if the display was turned off ( or ) KVM was set to another system as its focus and the system was booted, turning the monitor on after it was booted or switching the KVM focus to the system would just be a black screen. I also would hear a da-dunk sound on my sound for this system as Windows basically DISCONNECTED the video out on boot since it didnt see a display.The OP might not get an easy solution. In a commercial operation they might blame the monitor and get a monitor that does a better job of working with the OS. The other choice is to get a specific drive for that monitor the knows how to resolve the issue. The maker of the monitor should have it available. What is the exact model number of the monitor? A reboot doesn't fix the problem. What happens upon booting or rebooting - when the display doesn't get the signal - is that in the upper left of the monitor screen a small graphic of white letters TOGGLES back and forth between "HDMI" and "Analog" EVERY couple of seconds or so while the screen stays black. Every time when I disconnect all three cables and re-connect them, it boots up normally. I've tried every combination of the the three cables but all three must be disconnected and then re-connected before it works. And the weird thing is that this phenomenon doesn't happen every time I start up the computer - but it happens too often enough. The monitor model is: Samsung S24D390HL. What does OP mean?

It's a common abbreviation used in forums, the first letters of "Original Poster", meaning the person who started the thread, in this case, you. Quote when the display doesn't get the signal - is that in the upper left of the monitor screen a small graphic of white letters toggles back and forth between "HDMI" and "Analog" every couple of seconds or so while the screen stays black. This symptom would indicate it's the monitor...is it still under Warranty ? ? |
