Hi!
I need help with my LG monitor. It seems that it doesn't want to display any image although it's lighted blue. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Look careful at the display, or shine a flashlight almost parallel to the screen. If you can make out a faint image then the inverter is shot within the screen and you'll need to replace the screen

Do you have another pc to connect the monitor to it or another Monitor to connect to the same computer in order to test? or can you borrow a monitor from a friend to do the test (not joking)?
