My IBM monitor is not displaying when I turn my computer on. The green power light is on (not flashing). When I try to turn it off or get it to flash nothing happens. I unpuged it thinking it would re-set but no luck. I also tried re-booting several times. I had the same problem yesterday and got it running. The screen quality is great. Nothing wrong there. The is nothing in the owners manuel about this. The screen on my T40 lap to works fine but I want to use the monitor. HELP! Thank you, Jim Cyr 206-300-9545
