so I took my computer to the in-laws out of state this weekend to get some urgent work done for deadline Monday. Brought the CPU only and can't get the monitor to work. It is an old CRT, and it starts at first, you can see the boot up type screen, then right when it should go to the screen where it would show your choices of users, me, my wife, there is a black screen. The CPU looks to be humming like normal, but no screen image.
HELP! I guess I could by a monitor tomorrow, but was needing to do work till real late tonight. Any ideas out there at 10:15pm? thanks in advance.
My computer is vintage 2003, and the monitor is a bit older than that so I can't see why it would be a video card issue since I push a new flat screen LCD at home.
posting on the EE for more traffic, thanks...
