If your monitor has built-in speakers, then you can connect the audio
output (stereo mini plug) from your computer to the monitor. Look
at the back of your PC, there is a light green Jack: that is the Audio
Output Jack (Consult your PC user's manual for verification)
Here is what your cable should look like:
There should be a lead plugged from the computer speakers output to the monitor input, usually a 3.5mm stereo plug at each end. Make sure this is actually plugged in at both ends (sockets and plugs are usually Green for speakers).
There is a volume control in the computer, which you may already know about. This is accessed by double-clicking the speaker icon in the system tray (lower right corner of the screen).
The monitor will also have a volume control, accessed via the On-Screen Display (OSD) menu system, using the buttons on the monitor.
Hi Daz, try another working monitor on your computer and if the lines still appear on another monitor then that means your video card or onboard video is bad.
If you use another working monitor and the lines don't appear then that means that the original monitor has a bad screen and would not be worth the $$$ to repair.
open the monitor- with a wooden stick, or rubber eraser end of a pencil, gently poke and press on different areas of the boards, especially the neck board [the one the crt plugs into] - sounds like you may very well have a bad connection, especially a groung connection.
Yes, the connector next to the speaker connector is for the power adapter. It's different from the speaker plug so you can't put it in the wrong place. Hopefully you got the right power adapter with the monitor.
Here's the page at HP's site where you can download the User's Guide for this monitor. Hope this helps.
you will have a mains lead with an electric kettle type connection on one end which plugs into the rear of the screen and another similar lead for the pc.
the video lead from the screen will plug into a small dovetailed shaped connector coloured blue on the rear of the computer ( it can only fit one way round , as its broader on one side than the other )
the speaker leads will probably be small jack plugs one for left and one for right, and they plug into the rear of the computer, audio out / left / right.
