memory modules if applicable.

Monitor
There is no display on the screen:
• Check that the monitor cables are properly connected to the monitor, the
computer and the UPS, power strip or wall outlet. If the monitor is receiving
power, the LED should be lit.
• Check the port and the monitor cable for bent or damaged pins.
• Adjust the brightness and contrast controls to the centre position.
• Reinstall the device driver if applicable.
• Shut down your computer and unplug the power cord, modem cable
(if applicable) and monitor cable. Open the case.
• Reseat your video card.
• Reattach the power cord, modem cable (if applicable) and monitor cable.
Restart your computer.
• If there is still no picture on the display, try another monitor that you know
works (if applicable).
The color is not uniform:
• Check that no speakers are placed too close to the monitor. If any speakers
are placed too close to the monitor, move them at least 6 inches away from
the monitor.
• Check that the monitor is not too close to another monitor, electric fan,
fluorescent light, metal shelf, or laser printer.
