Second, if above doesnt solve the problem, may be your VGA card has problem or your CPU is not booting up. Feel the breeze of fan on SMPS to see if it is working or not.

Hope this helps

If you are getting a message that says something like "Check cables" " no signal detected" or something like that, it is likely that your monitor is operating correctly. I would suggest checking your cables, make sure that the computer is turned on, and if that doesn't help, check if your monitor has VGA, DVI, or HDMI inputs. I am thinking that your monitor may be trying to display from the wrong source. This is what a VGA (analog) cable looks like. VGA cables are typically blue.

Another common connection that is used is a digital HDMI (left) or DVI (right) connection. DVI cables often have white end connectors. How your PC connects to your monitor will determine the source mode you want to use on your monitor. (Obviously this is the cable view but the connection on the monitor itself will look similar.)

If none of these tips helps, I would suggest hooking the same monitor up to a different PC or laptop, and trying once again to get a the display working. Again, make sure that the connection matches the source setting on your monitor. If it works on another PC, then your computer may have a video problem.
Otherwise, if it still does not work your monitor have a problem displaying via that connection. If possible I would suggest switching to a different type of cable and re-try the above steps.

You need to find out first if it does the same when attach to another PC, you may have problem with the monitor itself.
If it is the monitor:
If you are going to DIY and already try the monitor with another PC, and have proper tools and know safety precaution then please read on: Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply (they should be replaced in a set), blown fuses; poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps).

Or www.digikey.com just make sure to use caps with low ESR, 105c, high ripple current, long life rating such as PANASONIC FM or FC series. Please leave rating if it helps.

It sounds like there is no signal to the monitor. The computer you have, does it work if you hook up another monitor? Have you taken this monitor to maybe a friends house or neighbor? See if it works. If it does; there may be a problem with your computer's video. If the monitor does not work; the issue is the monitor. It will then need to be replaced.

If you olny getting white glowing screen, it can be the connector to the T-CON board on the LCD panel came off or it has blown fuse on the T-CON board, or the logic board is not sending the 5 or12vdc to the T-CON board.

take it to a computer tech shop....
doing it is little tricky...and will need expertise on opening brittle equip....
all the best

You mean the OSD menu? That sounds like a loose solder joint. The button when pressed closes the cicruit and performs that particular action. What is happening here is that due to bad solder joint the button is pressing itself and hence you see the OSD menu. I have seen this problem a couple of times before. If you have good soldring skills you can probably handle this yourself.

baka di makayanan ng Monitor mo ang required resulotion ng Video Card sa Pentium 4 mo.
if thats the case.. mag down grade ka sa VGA Card ng Pentium 4 mo or Buy a new monitor that fits the specs of your Pentium 4 setup

Power suppply will be the first place to look, look for caps with leaking/bulging tops.

Hello

It sounds like you have two separate problems.

The first one is the "out of range" issue. This means you are trying to display a screen resolution that is too high or too low and your monitor cannot display any image. Reboot your computer with another monitor or into safe boot mode and change the resolution to an industry standard (800x600 / 1024x786) and then see if your monitor will display the image. Once you can see the image on your monitor, you can make adjustments and it will automatically revert back if you cannot see the new display settings.

Update your video graphics card drivers to get the best possible resolution.

As for the buttons on the front of the monitor not working, this may be caused by the "out of range" issue above. It could also indicate that your monitor may be going bad. Try the above steps - if you get no image from the monitor, try moving the monitor to another known good computer and see if the button functionality works after it displays an image.

With the monitor turned off, press and hold the Menu button while turning the monitor on. This should unlock it.

It sounds more likely that the back light inverter circuits are not working, check to see if you do have 12vdc feeding the inverter circuits. Check for bad caps (bulging top) also. See example of failed monitors due to bad caps: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
