Greetings,

I have a major problem with my monitor, i got no clue what caused it.

//Problem:

-Whenever i start my computer until it reaches the windows screen the monitor is blank with the red led lit up
-Same problem whenever i try to go into a 3d application that runs on a lower resolution than 1920x1080
-Even when i set the windows resolution at something lower than 1920x1080.


//What i tried so far:

-Change video card - same problem
-Switch to on-board video card- same problem
-Connect an entire different computer -same problem


// Computer specs, not sure if needed:
-amd phenom II x4 @ 4.2ghz
-amd radeon 7850HD
-Asus Crosshair IV Formula
-750W PSU CM 750GX
- 1tb hdd wd caviar black


Clearly it's not software related, perhaps it might be a faulty monitor.

Thank you for your help.

The one thing you haven't tried is a different monitor and almost certainly the LG one is faulty based on the results above. Having a faulty monitor repaired is not economically viable - - just buy a new monitor.
