Q: 15" multiscan monitor
I got a
5FT SVGA VGA Monitor M/M Male To Male Extension Cable 5
with a
Mac to VGA display adapter MxF - Apple Macintosh
So, everything was up and running. I was changing each HD(I have about 6 of them) with the computer so see what was on each of them with the Apple Multiscan 15" Monitor.
I have two 6100/66 Power PC and one LC 475(I used one of them with the Mulitiscan Monitor with was the 6100/66 Power PC)
Now all of a sudden, when i decided which computer I was going to use,I booted up the computer and the monitor didn't, it just stayed black . It just stopped displaying. Now all that's lit is a yellow light above the power button. Its starts off as green for a few seconds, then changes to yellow
I keep trying different HDD's , checking the cables, going back to the other two computers,thinking some has blown or something. Nothing! I checked online and asked the question and on one site, one person kinda had the same problem(I believe theirs was a PC monitor) and it said that it must be my video card??
Not sure if that so on my Mac.
Can someone help explain this to me. Do I need another monitor? I don't want to buy another cheap monitor just to connect and still find it didn't have anything to do with the monitor
Thanks
Mac OS 8.6 or Earlier
