    problem with a monitor

    I have just moved one of my pc's and the monitor - a second hand Dell is not working. There's power but no picture - have checked connections - all seems OK. At switch on monitor light goes on then flickers the way it does when the cpu is off.
    any help appreciated
    Thanks.

    Hi and welcome to D-A-L

    if all worked before the move, I'd check all the connections between the PC and the monitor

    HELLO thanks for your very sensible answer. After I posted the problem I went back to the PC and - I'm ashamed to say that I'd put the monitor to the wrong connection! I'm ashamed of myself... as I'm a "seasoned user" and should never have made such a bloop. But, on the good side I did find these forums. (Maybe it was a senior moment?)
