Thanks to all who helped with putting together my new desktop computer at the Clinic today!
Unfortunately, it is not working properly, that is, I have no video. When I got home the first thing I discovered is that the motherboard video output options are HDMI or DisplayPort. My monitor (ASUS VE228, 1920x1080) will take VGA. DVI or HDMI. I had been using a DVI cable with my old computer and I did not have an HDMI cable, so off to Best Buy. When I got home with the new HDMI cable I plugged it in, but the monitor just says 'no signal.' I also tried booting to an Ubuntu USB stick, but still no signal to the monitor. My laptop also has an HDMI output so I tried that, but still no signal to the monitor. There is strange stuff going on with the monitor too. According to the manual when the power switch is on the LED for it is supposed to be lit up, but it does not light up. And there is a menu button where you can select the signal source, but it does not come up. The monitor is seven years old, but it was working this morning with the old computer. I'd call ASUS but I'm sure they won't talk to me considering the age of the monitor. I'm off shopping for a new monitor, but if anyone has any brilliant ideas I'm all ears. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
