      If you have no display on your monitor, first check that the monitor is powered on and properly connected to the video output port on your Asus Desktop. If your computer has a discrete graphics card, make sure the monitor is connected to a video output port on that card. Inspect the monitor video connector for bent pins; if found, replace the cable. Finally, ensure the monitor is properly plugged into a power source.

      Michael NashSep 4, 2025
      If your speakers are producing no sound, ensure they are connected to the Line out port (lime) on the front or rear panel. Check if the speaker is connected to a power source and turned on, and adjust the speaker's volume. Also, ensure that your computer's system sounds are not muted. Connect your speakers to another computer to test if they are working properly.
