  If nothing is displayed on your LG Monitor screen, several factors could be the cause. First, check if the monitor's power cord is properly plugged into the power outlet. If the power LED is off, check the power cable connection and press the power button. If the power is on and the LED displays white, ensure the connected input is enabled via Settings > Input. If you see a 'No Signal' message, verify the signal cable between your PC and the monitor is correctly connected. For HDMI input, set HDMI Compatibility Mode to off in the monitor's General settings. For DisplayPort, set the DisplayPort Version to match the connected device.

  If your LG Monitor's screen display is unstable or shaky, or if images leave shadow trails, and the selected resolution is HDMI 1080i 60/50 Hz (interlaced), the screen may be flickering. Change the resolution to 1080p or the recommended resolution. Not setting the graphics card to the recommended resolution may result in blurred text, a dimmed screen, a truncated display area, or misalignment of the display. The setting methods may be different depending on the computer or operating system, and some resolutions may not be available depending on the performance of the graphics card.
