I just got this eMachine E15Tr monitor and am trying to hook it up to my current pc. They are both hooked up correctly to my knowledge but whenever I turn on my pc the monitor waits to turn on. When it does turn on it simply sits there displaying a black screen. (The pc is on the whole time I don't think you can hear it but it is humming)
You have three components which could be faulty: Computer, cable and monitor. Replace them one by one until you find out which one is giving you trouble:
Each combination you try will give you more information, until you have enough data to isolate the problem. It *could* be that your computer's resolution is not supported by the monitor, but I doubt it.

I have a E17TR (17") version that a friend gave me (free) a few months back, and just this morning it failed in the exact same way.
My theory is that the image is there but that it is just not being illuminated (so that I can see it). Such a case would suggest a problem with the Backlight or the Inverter.
I have found two web pages (from a company selling LCD repair parts) that can explain better than I.

Hope this help (the pages educated me).
Now if I can just figure out how to open the case; I took out the 4 screws (on the lower end of the back panel), but it just will not open in any way that seems logical . . . .

That monitor is a standard LCD screen that will work on just about any PC you attach it to. It will work fine on the PC you want to use it on.
Enjoy.

Try to connect the monitor to the VGA-output port of some other desktop or notebook computer. If it does not work, then it needs repair or replacement. If the monitor still under warranty:
* standard 1-year warranty from Gateway
* extended warranty that you may have purchased from Gateway
* extended warranty that some credit-cards offer for items purchased with that card
* extended warranty that you may have purchased from the retailer
???
If not, it's probably cheaper to replace a 15" or 17" or 19" monitor
that it would be to try to repair it.

tgordon60, If you know how those NEW "CURLIE-Q" energy efficient CFL light bulbs produce WHITE LIGHT, then you will know what makes an LCD display panel produce all the pretty colors and the WHITE BACKGROUND of the FIXYA web page!!! Only difference is that your "cold-cathode-fluorescent-lamps" are thinner and straight, and hung on rear of LCD glass panel and have a DC to AC electronic ballast called an "INVERTER" circuit to produce 600 to 1000vac to light them up. Get to my FIXYA profile and read my responses to other BLACK screen lcd owners to learn about all your options for repair. Follow any of the links to other web pages you find there. Your monitor not any different than ACER, DELL, VIEWSONIC, BENQ, SONY, AOC!!!!! 12fixlouie aka louie12fix
