Why doesn't my laptop monitor turn on?

My laptop wont connect to the output monitor on startup!?

  • Hi, I have Acer Aspire one series ZG5 and the screen cracked because I accidentally dropped it -_- Anyway...I have used an external monitor since. But when I came home to turn the laptop on I saw the light on the cracked screen go on, but no connection to the monitor? I don't know what happened. Hopefully you have an answer to my mystery. Also I had to update the BIOS not long ago, Probably doesnt have anything to do with it but putting that in there anyway. Thanks again!

  • Answer:

    Reconnect the VGA cable, see if that works. Anyways did the bios finish correctly? Did you varify by checking the BIOS version?
