If it worked before and suddenly doesn't work now it could be a bad cable. kinks in the able can be a problem but also when you plug-in the cable be careful because damaging the cable end or the the cable port is easier than you may think.. first replace the cable with one that you know works on another unit ..if that doesn't work examine the ends carefully for anything out of the ordinary.. get a technician to take a look if something seems strange with the cable end or the port..DVI cables come in several flavors make sure your using the right one and don't force the cable in that could make matters worst and more expensive....good luck..!

Acer monitor no signal

If your monitor has various input sources, make sure it's on the correct input source in the main/input menu. If that's not the problem double check the cable for bent pins also make sure if you have a video card with DUAL dvi outputs that your using the correct one.. as the other one might be secondary and non-functional. It's possible but highly unlikely if you unplugged the DVI cable while the monitored was still powered on it could have damaged the video card of the computer or mainboard of the LCD monitor. When in doubt try another DVI cable if all else fails.. if you have another DVI monitor (thats a known good) try that also to make sure that the video card is not the problem.

My monitor keeps saying "no signal". I confirmed

No Signal on your monitor says it is not receiving a signal from your computer... this could be:
1) the cable is bad
2) the cable is not plugged in firmly
3) your monitor is set to a different source (such as VGA or HDMI) and simply needs to have the option set.
4) the video card or onboard video electronics have failed.

Suggestion: If none of the above seem to be the problem, and if your computer AND the monitor have a VGA connector AND you have a VGA cable. Try that. If that works, its a strong indication that the DVI circuits have failed either in your monitor or in the computer's video electronics.

Monitor remains blank and says there is no signal. Then it says it's going to go to sleep. It also says check DVI. What's that? The monitor worked perfectly when I installed it a couple of days ago.

Well, it not getting the video signals from your PC. Are you using VGA or DVI cable for the video connection to the PC. Does this monitor work OK with another PC?
Please post back what you find.

If i connect the DVI cable to my Video card (9200 family)and to my monitor an Asus VH222H i get a dialogue box saying no DVI signal. if i use the VGA cable everything works fine.Does this mean the card...

Make sure your monitor is set up to recieve what ever signal you are wanting via the monitor's menu. There should be an input button on the monitor to select the signal type. The connection really doesn't matter as long as you are able to use the monitor. There could be something wrong with the connector on the video card. Also make sure you are using the card and are not using the onboard graphics connection by mistake. If the problem persists it is more than likely the card.

When i start the computer and the monitor it says dvi no signal

How is the monitor hooked up? Are you using the SVGA plug (blue center with 15 pins) or the DVI (white with a lot of pins)?

Either way, if your monitor says there is no signal, then it means your computer is not putting out a video signal. Depending on you computer, this could mean 1)bad power supply 2)bad video card, 3)loose cable connection.
You'll need to check all three. Since the monitor does display a message, it is probably good.

Moniter keeps turning off saying no video imput

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!

Check that the Input signal cable is properly inserted in the VGA socket. Secondly the Primary VGA is properly giving display signals to the Monitor/LCD. Because there are cases in which VGA is the bottle neck of the trouble you are facing.

Cross check and update me with the status,

Best of Luck,

Do RATE the solution, If found Helpful,
