Troubleshooting Your Monitor

Self-Test Feature Check (STFC)

Your monitor provides a self-test feature that allows you to check whether your monitor is functioning properly. If your monitor and computer are properly connected but the monitor screen remains dark, run the monitor self-test by performing the following steps:

1.Turn off both your computer and monitor.

2.Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer. To ensure proper Self-Test operation, remove both Digital (white connector) and the Analog(blue connector) cables from the back of computer.

3.Turn on the monitor.

NOTE: The floating 'Dell Self-test Feature Check' dialog box should appear on a black background if the monitor cannot sense a video signal. Using the input select button, select the desired input to be tested either Analog Input or Digital Input. Disconnect the video cable from the video card and the Dell Self-test Feature Check dialogue box will appear if the display is operating correctly.
