Running the External Monitor Self-Test
You can perform a “self-test” on an external VGA color or
monochrome monitor by disconnecting the monitor from the
computer. To do so, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the monitor.
2. Turn off the computer.
3. Disconnect the monitor signal cable from the computer.
4. Turn on the monitor and allow it to warm up for one minute.
5. The screen should be white. A narrow black border may also
appear on the left and right sides of the monitor screen. Either
condition indicates that the monitor is working properly.
