Connecting my Dell Vostro 1400 to a Samsung S24B350H monitor

I am trying to connect my Dell Vostro 1400 to a Samsung S24B350H monitor. I am connecting them with a RGB cable, but nothing is coming up on the monitor. It keeps telling me to check my connection. The monitor is brand new, so I imagine I am either connection them incorrectly or there is an issue with the Dell?

    I had the correct cable, the RGB one as stated. All it was, was I had to change the multiple display settings under NVIDIA Control Panel, on the laptop.

If the monitor has several video connections then you need to go into the monitor's settings and select the correct video input.

SOURCE: Dell latitude E4300 wont connect to internet

Recently I purchased an Vostro 1310 for my mother as her Inspiron 1100 was dying; I installed all the drivers everything was peachy but frustratingly enoguh I could not connect to our home modem -

I alleviated this issue by taking it off obtain ip address automatically.

Then I put the following data in

IP 10.0.0.3
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway 10.0.0.138

DNS preffered 10.0.0.138
Alternate Blank


I had to assign the laptop an IP as you can see and point it in the right direction which was to my modem. So all you need to do is find his modems default path and it should be sweet.

After I applied these changes it had no issues connecting - It might be a conflict of ip assigning on the network.

Before you rate get back to me if it didn't work - I want to help you solve this issue and get a Fix Ya! rating ;)

SOURCE: connect my Dell Vostro 1400 laptop to my HDTV via VGA

If the Vostro doesn't read the signal automatically try to switch the signal from internal to external using the Fn (function) key + one of the F keys above the number keys. This key is usually F4 but may be different for yours. Also, make sure the input is correct on the tv....

SOURCE: Brand new Dell netbook won't connect to internet

No, it's probably because you have setup a wireless home network with security in place.

Go through the settings on your husband's notebook settings for your home network and set your Dell up the same way. You will need to know the SSID for the wireless network, security type and key to set it up.

You cannot just put an ordinary SIM in there just like that of a mobile phone. You need to subsribe for a 4G SIM or the one that offers HSDPA technology. consult with your local Wireless broadband provider like att or sprint to give you more information regarding that feature.

Trouble connecting dell vostro 1500 with lcd tv

Depending on the operating system on your Dell. Try right click on the desktop and go to graphics properties or display settings. If the computer can 'see' the TV try to enable it by clicking 'extend desktop to this display'. If you cannot "see" the TV try the detect button and enable it as per above.

Dell Vostro 1400 LCD Showing Black Screen

If you can't see it with an external monitor - it generally means the system board needs replacement. I hope that you still have a Dell warranty. Good luck.
