Ok, heres the issue;
For the last week at work the computer I use does not seem to recognize that there is a monitor there, that is, its a constant black screen.
The computer is otherwise running just fine, I've check that everything, both inside and outside are connected....the weird part is after maybe 10-20 attempts of just turning the power on/off it starts just fine and runs perfect.
its the computer
other note, ive tested the video card as well: not the issue
edit: it is receiving power, however once its on it almost instantly goes to power save mode(and stays there)
I've also already tested all the video ports/on board graphics
did you try to unplug everything from/to the monitor? (with your computer turn off ofc), and maybe some cleaning of the connectic (remove dust, bugs...)?
