I cannot get my MacBook Pro to recognize any external displays

My Mac Book Pro not been restarting or waking up properly. Often times taking hours to wake up. I finally have my MacBook Pro "awake" but it is not recognizing any external displays that I have connected.

Apple TV, Mac OS X (10.5.2), Also have a Mac MINI and 2 MacBookPros

It appears that you have problems in addition to the monitors not being detected that should be addressed first.


Start with SMC and NVRAM resets:
