WARNING: Before you start troubleshooting remember that you are dealing with electricity that can KILL.

Only work inside the computer case when the power has been switched off and disconnected. Never open the power source.

Test all power and data leads that attach to your hard drive IDE,SATA

the leads from your (motherboard to your hard drive) make sure they have secure dust free connections and are not faulty

If its a 40 pin flat ribbon type it will be the first to fail.

Even something as small as a faulty electrical fan and its lead can cause you problems

computers need all power and data to continue through every working device and to have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error.

Make sure your graphics card is securely seated with no dust built up or in the socket

if you remove your graphics check the socket to make sure its dust free.

Restart your computer then reinstall it this should activate found new hardware wizard

Check the VGA cable connection running from the computer to the monitor.

This cable must be completely inserted into both VGA connection ports, otherwise the video signal is not going to reach the display.

Disconnect the VGA cable from the computer and monitor, then look at the metal connectors on both ends.

If you are missing connection pins, the video signal is not going to transfer between hardware correctly.

Examine the power connection on the monitor.

If the monitor is not receiving power, it is not going to turn on.

Turn off the monitor for a few minutes, then power it back on.

Like other computer hardware, the monitor may not initially turn on correctly.

Move the mouse and press the "Enter" key on the computer keyboard.

If the computer is in sleep mode, the monitor is going to appear as if it does not have any display.

Hope this helps

Try to remove the graphics card and then plug the monitor into the onboard VGA port. Also, when you say you tried the RAM, did you switch RAM slots or put in a known working one?

Disconnect the monitor from the motherboard and shut it down. Open the case, find the battery and remove it for 5 minutes. Put it back, connect the monitor and boot normally.

(1) If you have connected windows cpu to monitor then when you power up the computer press F8 key then enter in enable vga mode then go to control panel ->display property -=>settings change screen resolution to 1024*768.
then check .
(2)But if you are not able to see any display on screen then open cpu cabinet and refix ram memory pull cmos cell from motherboard for 10 minutes ,if there is any pci card or vga card installed on motherboard reattach it into motherboard.Then check.
If you have mac book then follow my second solution.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

type your model and click search. choose the right motherboard model and download your drivers

i would consider replacing your power supply.

hmm...try check your Video Card...maybe the problem is in video card try using eraser use it!!

or something wrong in the board try buying a new one ^_^

change motherboard really this even can t ovclock it

your monitor is telling you it's on it's last legs..either that or your compaq has a bad video section. either is more vital than a video cable being loose.

That seems to be an odd problem, my recommendation is just to check the basics.  Test the power supply.  Make sure the memory is well seated.  Run memtest 86 and prime 95.  And if you have more than 3gb or ram take some out and try it, xp gets touchy if it has over 3.
