    Hi all. My lg ips225 stop working this morning. I've tried 2 different type cables, reseated the graphics card, cleaned the ram, lifted the cmos battery. The graphics card is a msi 210 1gb.
    The monitor is on and blinking so there is power and in the monitor setup I only have dual and input available options, no menu,mode or auto.
    Any thoughts please?

    Do you have integrated graphics you could try?

    Ni I don't. The Mb has no vga outlet. I'm thinking it's the graphics card. It's only an El cheapo as the pc is primarily for photoshop. But it is only 8 odd months old.

    You could try connecting it up to a tv if you have one with hdmi?
