No Characters Appear on Screen

Check the following:

Is the keyboard working? Check to see that the “Num Lock” light is functioning.

Is the video monitor plugged in and turned on? Many modern video monitors shut down when inactive and may require a moment to warm up when activated.

Are the brightness and contrast controls on the video monitor properly adjusted?

Are the video monitor switch settings correct?

Is the video monitor signal cable properly installed?

Is the onboard video controller enabled?

If you are using an add-in video controller board, you may need to perform some additional checks.

To Test an Add-in Video Controller

1.Verify that the video controller board is fully seated in the system board connector (and verify that the video monitor is plugged in to the active video controller).

2.Reboot the system for changes to take effect.
