ok here is my problem from a cold boot i don't get a display. this is what is happening i changed monitors, the old one works. i sold it no longer have it. anyways when i start up the pc my monitor will show green then goes to black screen with a small orange light, it's like it's not responding to the signal. he monitor just freezes and doesn't respond to power button or anything. i have to unplug it a few times and restart the computer to get it to even work, this happens like everytime. I tried booting up many different ways but nothing.. i can here windows starting, but no screen on monitor. if i don't have the monitor hooked up to the pc seems to work normal. it's show green light then orange and tell me there is no signal, but hooked up to the pc it will not show me the no signal which means it has one, but the monitor isn't giving me the picture. the monitor is a westinghouse lcm 22w3. I know it's not the video card. must be the monitor. video card is the galaxy 9600gt oc latest nvidia drivers installed. also i'm using the vga cable because i didn't get a dvi-d with the monitor and it doesn't come with one. and it goes to a vga to dvi to he video card.. i'm thinking of getting the dvi-d connecter the monitor needs for dvi-d to see if that does anything. anyone else have issues like this?? any answers to this. Also i'm using windows 7. but it happens before post so it's not even into windows. could it be something in bios. plus there isn't a onboard video so that can't be a problem.. i also had another video card in the system same thing happening. i['m on the monitor now writing this so i do eventually get it to work playing with power cord, vga cable and rebooting machine, then it eventually works. very weird!!
