Hi all issue I am having is we had a power outage and after then my displays have no signal, I did a HEAP of research and found that if I disconnect the cmos battery for a few min and refit should be ok, I did that and it worked BUT now every time I restart my pc again no displays unless I open it up and repeat the process of remove battery and refit then it works.

any help on so I don't need to do this every time would be amazing.

Alienware x51 r1,
i7 3770 ivy bridge

I suggest you buy a new CMOS battery.

I'll be buying one, I have never noticed slow time or more common issues with low/dead battery just this having to disconnect and refit issue

A new battery may not fix the problem. But, it will Allow a better chance for the BIOS to boot.

Good luck

Hello,
I am trying to connect my laptop to a monitor. The monitor worked fine with a pc when I last used it, a while ago. I have recently used the same laptop with another monitor, and that worked fine. But those two together... the best I managed was to get the monitor to show me the laptop's desktop for 2 seconds before going back to safe mode. Any idea what's going on??
Thanks in advance!

Computer starts but monitor says "no signal"

Hi,

Yesterday, my monitor worked fine. Today, l connected it to a different computer just as a test to diagnose the monitor problem on that computer. This monitor again functioned properly on the second computer. Then, l brought it back to the original computer and reconnected, found everything as normal.

When l turn the computer on, the monitor shows the brand name screen and then goes to a black screen with the "no signal" message.

I know the computer is functioning because l can hear the welcome sound even though nothing shows on the screen.

I have tried unplugging/re-plugging and removing/replacing the CMOS battery. No succe...
