The next easiest thing to do is to check all the cables. If none of that works, try restarting the computer by pressing the power button. Try pressing keys on the keyboard or moving the mouse. If the power is on and everything looks fine, but you’re still not getting anything on your display, the computer may have gone into standby or sleep mode and isn’t being woken up. You will have to reference the PC manufacturer manual to figure out what the beeps or status lights mean.

Even with nothing connected, you should be able to bring up the monitor menu. Try connecting a different monitor if you have one. If still you have a blank screen, then this could mean there is a problem with your monitor. If the monitor is on, but nothing is showing up, try to press the menu button to bring up the built-in monitor controls. If the light is on, the monitor is on and you should see some message. ![]() ![]() Check to make sure the monitor is turned on, which is usually indicated by some kind of light on the power button itself. You’ve probably already done this, but it’s still always worth mentioning because it happens more often than you would think.
