Please help! Having problems...
My monitor is working and my tower is working, but not together, all I get is a message on my monitor saying no signal.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks Nickny

The monitor gives that message as it is not getting a signal from the base unit.

ie; The base using has a problem, how competent are you in taking the case off and playing inside?

I think you removed the wrong side...

Regardless, what do you mean your tower is "working"? Is it "working" with a different monitor or is it just turning on?

Similarly with your monitor, is what your saying that:

You have tried the PC in a different monitor and it works fine.

You have also tried the monitor on a different PC and it works fine.

? Or do you just mean that they both turn on?


If the latter, go back to basics and check connections, then try a different cable, and different sockets if you have them.

PSU or overheat, more likely PSU. Swap the PSU out and see if that fixes it.
