@Toffy63,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details and I would appreciate if you could, perhaps elaborate on your concern.

• When was the last time the monitor was working fine?
• Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
• Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

While you respond to that, I recommend you disconnect the monitor from the computer and remove the power cable. Press and hold the power button on the monitor for 5 seconds with all the cables disconnected from the monitor and then connect the power cable and turn it on. (Note: Do not connect the monitor the computer) See if you are getting a message “check video cable” message on the monitor.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

Cheers!
