Solution
If the monitor uses blue VGA cable not a white Dev I cable make sure your plugged into the gpu or onboard video port not one of the serial ports.
On new pc if there onboard and a gpu you have to plug the monitor into onboard video to see the post screen. On older monitors if you see the CMOS pst screen then windows splash screen then nothing then windows is desplaying an output your monitor can't sink too.
