Hi.
I have vista computer connected to flatscreen
in my livingr room, which all suddenly
stopped outputting pictures to the LCD
screen.. It's nothing wrong with the tv,
since I tried other sources for test, and
furtheron the machine is running as I'm
accessing the computer from my laptop.. but
no picture on the tv, so I can't see what Im
doing, and do not have an additional pc
screen in order to help it..Thats why I wonder if the are any shortkeys
for changing display sources on windows vista
so that I can get my pictures back? or any
other stuff that might work.. (and of course
I have tried resetting the computer)Thanks

See if a bios option allows a video device as first choice. Be sure to remove connection to any external displays.
"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

it does.. cause I installed the whole OS with
using the lcd screen, so I actually never
used any normal screen.. no other device is
connected.. this problem all sudden occured,
after I shut down the computer.. although, it
indeed makes some strange sounds on start up
now, maybe because no screen found? Well
anyway, how can I sort this out?Thanks

Boot to Vista dvd and repair maybe?

Not to state the obvious, but do you have the TV switched to PC input mode? it's easy enough done to accidently hit a key on the remote and switch to a different mode, especially if you have a cat wandering around.

It's always good with the obvious, sure
thing. But, it's in pc mode, and recently had
my other laptop connectedThanks
