Hi all,
So I recently purchased the Minerva from PCSpecialist and it arrived this morning, which is about the end of the good news. For those unfamiliar, spec here: http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/systems/pc_specialist_minerva_system_review/1
Bought a new Monitor (BENQ GL2450) off Amazon to go with it. But when I plug it into my machine the monitor reads 'No signal detected.' It knows the cable is plugged in fine both ends otherwise it would say 'No Cable connected.' The same problem arises with both a HDMI and VGA Cable.
Tried plugging my old laptop in with the HDMI cable to the monitor and it works fine which leads me to presume the monitor is OK and the problem must lie with the PC.
I don't know a lot about the interior workings of a PC, but the PC does appear to turn on. I'm convinced the problem must be very simple but I'm not sure what it is.
Any suggestions would be appreciated
