20 Most Recent Northgate 17" LCD Tilt Screen Innovations Monitor Questions & Answers

have you made sure the video cable is plugged into the screen and the back of the computer correctly. You could also try a new video cable, because the problem may be that the wires inside the video cable have frayed. If that doesn't fix the problem you could try using a different monitor and see if you can replicate the same problem with a different monitor, if you can, the computer may have a problem with the graphics card. If you can't replicate the problem with a different monitor, it seems as though your northgate innovations monitor has developed an internal fault, if the monitor is within warranty try and get a free repair or get it replaced (if you have the receipt.

Hi There and Welcome to Fixya,

The first thing you should do is to check if the pins in your VGA cable connector (from the monitor) and make sure if they are "complete and straight" - no bent or missing pins etc. It would be best if you have another PC or Laptop to try your monitor display out so you can determine which is really the problem.

In case you experience the same issue after trying the display out from another PC, then it is evident that there's a need to replace your LCD monitor. Now, if it's the other way around, then it's quite possible that you can resolve this by :

• Reseating/replacing your video card (if you have one)
• Updating your video display driver
• Reinstalling your Operating system.
• If it's onboard video, then I would suggest to purchase a video card compatible with your motherboard as oppose to replacing the entire board which is much more expensive.
  

I hope this helps,

Thank you for using Fixya.

Ctrl-Alt-arrow key....try all arrows, one of them will correct it.

Try changing the CMOS battery, and see if the problems go away.

You should have mentioned your Operating System, but I would email or call Newegg, and ask them. http://help.newegg.com/app/home/site/US#ContactUsTab

Please don't turn it back on. Unplug your computer from the wall and examine the wall socket for blackened or burned sections. It is likely that dust has caused a short in your computer. Sadly, most times this means that you are going to need a new computer or at the very least, some new parts. Take it to a reputable computer repair shop near you and have them test the power supply and other components to see what is salvageable of your computer. With any luck, your hard drive contents MAY have survived but there is no guarantee.

"40drhol"? If you are re-installing the OS, when you re-install it will ask if you want to format. If the HDD is not the Primary HDD in your computer. a spare HDD, If the HDD is compatible with your computer interface you can install as a slave/second/primary, depending on the interface/pin outs, or load a different OS on it if you wish and have a Dual-Boot. If it's a second drive in your computer, Open Start Menu, Computer, Select the HDD, just right click and format ,select File System.

Hello,You need to install the driver of your printer that works with the operating system of your northgate computer. The driver is in the CD/DVD that came with your printer. After installing everything, you can add RadarSync to your computer to optimize your computer's driver (eg. keeping them updated to avoid from some problems, and running automatic updates so that you can avoid from the headaches of doing the updates manually). I hope this helps.If you need more info, please let me know.Carlo

You may have to use the XP drivers . there may not be drivers developed yet for the Windows 7.
The manufacturer is the one who supplies compatible drivers to run with the operating system.

Go to the control panel and find the system folder then find the device manager then find your sound card and you can load the driver from there. Also make sure your sound is not muted.

During the boot process you will see on the screen to press delete to enter setup Press and hold delete during the boot up process to enter BIOS you can load failsafe defaults or load optimized defaults ,press escape then press f10 to save to cmos to restart then once you have your computer running try uninstalling a few unnecessary programs then click start run type cmd then type chkdsk/r/f which will scan for and attempt to fix any bad sectors and automatically fix any corrupt files on your hard drive then defragment your hard drive then you might test all leads that are attached from your ((motherboard to your hard drive)) or just replace them there probably old and faulty hope this helps

Does this problem came all of a sudden? Do you hear sounds before? Check the icon with the speaker (or something like this) at the lower right end of the taskbar. Is it marked as forbidden? Click on it and enable sounds.

Some laptop keyboards have small "tabs" on the edge closest to the LCD screen, and those tabs fit "under" something metal,
in order to hold the keyboard in-place. Gently "work" that area, to get those tabs to move "above" (instead of "under"), to release the keyboard.
