it as a possible cause of the problem: connect the monitor cable directly to the
correct connector on the rear of the server.

v
The server is turned on. If there is no power to the server, see “Power
problems” on page 143.
v
The monitor cables are connected correctly.
v
The monitor is turned on and the brightness and contrast controls are
adjusted correctly.
3. Make sure that the correct server is controlling the monitor, if applicable.
4. Make sure that damaged server firmware is not affecting the video; see
“Updating the firmware” on page 87.
5. Observe the checkpoint LEDs on the system board; if the codes are changing,
go to step 6.
6. Replace the following components one at a time, in the order shown, restarting
the server each time:
a. Monitor
b. Video adapter (if one is installed)
c. (Trained technician only) System board.
7. See “Solving undetermined problems” on page 148.
The monitor works when you
turn on the server, but the
screen goes blank when you
start some application
programs.
1.
Make sure that:
v

the capability of the monitor.
v
You installed the necessary device drivers for the application.
2. Run video diagnostics (see “Running the DSA Preboot diagnostic programs”
on page 129).
v
If the server passes the video diagnostics, the video is good; see “Solving
undetermined problems” on page 148.
