3 years later and this still works! My man thanks for saving me! I was really confused why my monitor wasn't working but it's all good now thanks to you.
6 years??? 4 maybe u mean 4 years and its still works!! :D
Wife in the background yelling a 3 minute tutorial video won’t fix it , we’ll she was wrong thank you ! And also thanks for proving her wrong
Same thing just happened to me lol. CZcams for the win
Guess they do all be the same ay? 😂
LOL 😂
As an IT student I don't see how this makes any sense, but it works. One of those black magic moments. It also made my resolution the lowest possible so odd. Thanks!
Dude you're a life saver. I've had an IT job early in my career and I should know this but completely forgot the basics of troubleshooting! I was going going mad. Thanks for this!
I thought my gpu went out overnight i was friekin out this fixed it man thx for saving me time and headaches
I use this exact monitor for 7.5 years and this is the first time it happened to me today. You literally saved hours of my life, and I still can't believe that fix actually worked for me. Thanks a lot!
Well here I thought it was either my displayport cable or my GPU...
Went and bought another DP cable, didn't work, started to freak out and thought it was my 1000$CAN GeForce GTX 1080 GPU.
But no, it was simple as that, unpluged ALL my cables from the monitor, waited for 1-2 minutes, plugged all back in, and boom it worked.
You are my hero of the day. Liked.
and the issue never came back? i bought a similar gpu, had the same issue, only to exchange it for a new one to have the same problem.
@@untitledcreep Not that I can recall, no. This would be a different issue, but sometimes my screen would display only half, and I apply either the mentioned troubleshooting steps or simply turning off and on the monitor.
But yes, to answer your question, in my case the steps worked and the issue never came back.
You might want to try the problematic monitor on a different PC to test and see, and also a different display port on the GPU, try to isolate the problem.
I just built my PC, now moving over from HDMI to Displayport, I had this issue. Did EXACTLY as lolfreddy advised, and BAM - ALL GOOD! Wanted to take the time to leave a thank you for this video - uploaded 5 years ago.
Omg it really works!!!!
I tried unplugging a bunch of times and it just didn’t do the trick
But once I followed your exact instructions it worked perfectly
Thanks
Normally I'd just try the explanation and then move on if it did or didn't work. I'm leaving a comment here because this incredibly simple solution legitimately works. All the Internet articles I scrolled through all kept saying the same thing, "it's a faulty wire, the GPU died, there's a power issue". All these possibilities that I knew weren't the case because I literally just restarted my computer after just using it and it stopped working. This video is the only one that actually worked... A 5 year old two minute video worked better than current articles made the same month as the problem I just faced. You're a legend for showing a less talked about solution.
I’m glad it worked out for you! Thanks for letting us know 🥰
What a great tip! Was on the verge of pulling my gpu and trying a new one when I found this! I always tell family and friends to turn it off and on again when they have a computer problem but never thought to do this for myself, thank you my friend :)
What GPU that gives you this problem?
@@Gabo99 HI my friend, mine is a 3070ti but I think it may be my monitor that is having issues as I have to unplug it and power cycle for audio as well sometimes.
Experienced the same issue and this solution worked for my pc. 970 GTX card here. (Aoc 144hz screen)
Tried different cables, drivers, HDMI vs DisplayPort, and this did it. It just needed to be completely powered off for 30 seconds, and back to working. Thanks!
Wow! You did it! You saved me a ton of time, money, and frustration! Thank you! It was working perfectly last night, put it to sleep, and woke up with it not working until now! I tried unplugging it and rebooting and pulling all the chords out but it’s the exact combination you described that made it work again!
Thank you so much. Your comment made me follow exactly what he said and it worked
I JUST WORKED ON TRYING TO FIX THIS ISSUE FOR 6 HOURS TODAY AND MY LAST HOPE WAS THIS VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH............. NO WORDS.
dont work for me
I have been using DP for 4 years without any issues. Suddenly, I faced this problem, and I tried your solution and its working again! Thanks
"Have you tried turning it off and on again?" Thank you good sir, most of the time it is the simplest solution!
Yuup works every time 10% of the time.
This worked for me: Unplug the displayport cable, turn off the monitor, unplug the power cable; wait like 2 to 3 minutes; replug your cables and turn on the monitor. After this my monitor still didn't work, so what I did was go to settings and choose to extend display (or windows + P => extend display) for me this worked and my monitor worked again!
it actually worked thank you so much. Was about to order a new 2080ti but everything is all good now. Holy crap i was so scared. Earned a new sub ill share the video for sure. THX
WHAT THE ACTUAL ****... this is more than just black magic... this is some kind of Lovecraftian old god stuff... I have a 49" Samsung with PBP HDMI and DP... Monitor went into standby few minutes later, the DP half stopped working... I tried everything, new cable, HDMIs, adapters, miniDP, everything... didn't work, and then... I just stumble over your vid and you just say, unplug it and it will work... DUDE... yes... it works... give this man a cookie or something. TY
Went through this issue for days, replaced nearly every component in my PC, and EVEN the actual GPU... FINALLY found your video. I owe you a huge debt of gratitude sir. Thank you!
worked third try. for anybody reading this, if you try it once or twice and it doesn’t work, then make sure to re read the instructions and follow it to the letter. super simple fix thanks so much!
This was exactly my issue, weird how it was the first time in 4 years of having the monitor. Super helpful!
It's WORK! A True life saver for me. I tried every methods. Unfortunately nothing works. I almost return my 4070super. Many thanks.
Everyone is having a success story while I’ve tried everything and it’s still not working😣
same bro!
@@fizz5872 I’ll update you if I fix it
@Ivan no, sadly. I had to call asus tech support and I had to ship it out to their warehouse. It arrives there on Friday and I can’t expect to get it back for 2-4 weeks which is a bummer
@@alexochoa1395 did they tell you wats wrong?
@@JusTwon I bought two different monitors before I figured it was a gpu problem and it came back about a week ago and my pc has finally been working now
This is literally the stupidest thing that has ever worked. I spent months trying to get my dp to work and finaly gave up and shelled out the money for a brand new gpu only to have it still not work. Days more of hunting through the internet and trying everything to make the dp work. I've downloaded drivers, hunted through my bios, spent over a thousand usd on new hardware and you've just solved the issue in 30 seconds. Thank you so much!
You are BREATHTAKING! I have the same monitor as you, won't lie thought it was my display port cable that was shot from a year ago and I bought a new one! To be honest, the one I bought was cheap anyways but this DID the trick! I smashed the like button and subscribed! I love a person who gets straight to the point.
Hilarious that this worked. I have two identical monitors, both connected to my vid card with Display Port. Did a windows update, restarted, and only the HDMI port worked. Since the identical monitor wasn't affected, I didn't think power cycling would matter. Bizarre. Thank you!
This worked. Appreciated the "to the point" description for the video.
I can't believe it was just the monitor having issues and this easy fix helped, thank you so much I can't express my gratitude enough!
Dude you're a life saver! God bless you. I pray you have a fantastic 2023 filled with favour, blessings and good news always. The happiness you made me feel after this worked may you always experience that joy 10x all the days of your life. God bless you. You're amazing.
Almost forgot to say, I was so happy when you showed your monitor cause we have the exact same monitor. I was so happy😂
Thank you once again. Have a lovely April and year👊🏽👊🏽
I can't believe this works. I already use 3 different DP cables but all didn't work. This instructions works like a charm.
You have no idea how thankful I am to have found this video. Heart was pounding at the thought that it was a gpu problem. Thanks man!
March 2024 and this still works, I honestly could not believe it... Thank you sir
Thanks man this worked perfectly. I was at it for hours taking the hdmi, displayport and everything out of computer and monitors. Once I unplugged the power cord to the monitor (I was having issues with no signal) I waited 30 seconds like you said, plugged back in, turned on monitor and it came right up!!! Thanks for the help!
Men, I have your monitor and this solution finally worked after havin tried other several things. I started to get desesperated. 1000 kudos for you.
Thank you Freddy! I just wanted to chip in that this actually worked. It took me 3 attempts to get this right - so glad this tip solved my problem:)
Zoo I. D uuooxx x x xx to. Ffff zx
OMG dude.... you saved me from buying a new graphics card... I have exactly this Monitor, and both Display Ports stopped working today.
What the FUNK!
It worked... how... why.... Ok, cool, yep.
Thank you!
PS: Had this monitor since Nov 17, 2014- no issues. Then today, no signal. Tried unplugging it, tried different cables... somehow the whole unplug monitor, and turn EVERYTHING off for 30 seconds did the trick. wtfunk.
5 year later and it still worked :O , i have same monitor u mentioned in video and wasn't expecting it to work but it does :D , i had these issues before but idk how i dealt them but they do took hours but this time it take few seconds, i just poweroff my system , unplug power cable and display port for 30sec and done it now working , thank's alot
Awesome job man, didn't even have to watch the video just followed the steps in the description worked perfectly the first time. Thank you so much I got home from work and was extremely pissed off that my stuff wasn't working.
wow! it works! thank you so much !
steps
1: Unplug all cables (display and power ) connected to the monitor,
2:Wait for the monitor power light goes off ,
3: wait for several minutes
4: Plug the cables
5: power on
it works🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much again as this trick save much time and trouble!
Worked. I only have to power the monitor off, wait a while, unplug everything from the monitor (PC was still ON) and plug everything back in and power the monitor back on. Perfect, thanks!
ffs I've opened my laptop (tried to disconnect bios battery), updated my bios, discharded battery, reinstall windows - omfg. You are the best!
Thank you so much! This worked for me! I was afraid something was wrong with my graphics card, so I'm glad it was something so simple.
Worked!! I pull the plug out of the monitor (plus many other things) but did not wait long enough. After watching the video I realized I may have not waited long enough for the monitor to completely power down. I unplugged and wait at least a minute, plugged it back in and it worked. THANKS!!!
This happened I have the same monitor, I tried everything from re-seating the graphics card, updating the drivers, unplugging my pc and plugging it back in, never once did it occur to me to do this I feel like an idiot, lmao, thank you.
Holy Crap... Works on Acer .... I did everthing before.... even buyed a new monitor 30min before watching this video. I can cry
A little thing for others who may be having a similar issue, try turning off G-Sync if you have that enabled as it turned out I was getting a similar issue because my display port has the number 20 pin enabled due to it being a replacement because my old cable died, which was causing my monitor to turn off periodically while in or loading games.
how to disable g-sync if you monitor has No Signal?
@@mar0k Only thing I can suggest is to use a different cable if you have one, maybe swap to hdmi if your monitor allows just temporarily, if not and it's only turning off periodically then I'd wait for it to turn back on. Sorry I could be more helpful but this is the best solution I've got for you lol.
@@W4TT3Y Thanks for your answer. In my case, the monitor and cabel is ok. However, it looks like the routing of the newly installed CPU liquid cooling system was preventing a motherboard from starting correctly, including the monitor connectivity. After switching both cabels between CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT connectors it seems to work (even the manual says otherwise). :)
my monitor shows windows logo and than no display , anyone??
Thanks a bunch! my DisplayPort stopped working out of nowhere and I though it was a hardware problem. After doing this it worked!
This power cycle trick works, but it's not a permanent fix. The problem will reoccur eventually. Read about the "pin 20" issue with DisplayPort cables and how most manufacturers appear to ignore VESA standards.
Good to keep in mind. Are there brands on the market that are compliant and would solve the issue permanently?
Can I just do it again and again and again?
So changing to HDMI if possible would solve the problem? :)
Or to another branded DP cable?
@@hamph1337 Changing to HDMI would solve the problem but it doesn't support more than 60hz. Switching to another DP cable wouldn't solve the problem.
I just saved $229 by fixing my Westinghouse monitor with this method. Thanks Man!
Omfg 2 hours of trying to figure out wtf is wrong with my pc. Thank you so much. Such a stupid solution
I honestly think this is the first time an "easy fix" video title actually lived up to its name. Thank you so much
Thank you so much. After returning 2 monitors (this one being the 3rd), I was about to give up entirely. Your trick worked like a charm. For anyone who is having issues, make sure you turn the power switch behind the monitor off AS WELL AS the display power/sleep button.
Hey did you unplug the thing from you outlet or just the plug that goes in the back of the monitor, Ive been struggling for the past two days and I’ve just been trying to get important stuff done :/
IT FREAKING WORKS! Because i have been putting my computer to sleep all the time. I shut it down, power off monitor and CPU, off AC power for at least 30 secs and power back up it works!
holy hell i feared the most when i started reading all forums about rtx 2060 displayport fix thank you for uploading this video, your my hero.
Thank you man, my monitors display port randomly stopped working like yours and all I had to do was un plug it and it reset back to the DP! Life saver thank you
I have the exact same monitor which I have owned for 3 years now. This happened for the first time today out of the blue. I was getting very frustrated trying to fix it. This video saved the day! All good and working again, thanks!
was just getting dressed to go to Best Buy to waste money on a new cable and found this video just before. Thanks for saving me time and money, fix worked.
Will it work for a hdmi cable with displayport adapter?
I have the same thing and was gonna ask this to
Can’t get it to work with my adapter @consume egg
Dude.... you have no idea how helpful this was. This is my exact monitor, what are the odds?
Thank you so much! This worked so well. I've been checking for months on how to fix it and none of them have worked until now
I first used a hdmi cord then my monitor would turn black for a couple seconds then back on. Recently I found out I have a display cord I can use. I’m using a AOC monitor and I did the trick you gave us and it still doesn’t work.. any other tips ?
THANK YOU! Posted 4 years ago, still out here saving lives for us that don't know about power cycling. Man bless you and your whole family
Exactly same issue, exactly same monitor, exactly same fix, thank you, much appreciated mate
I have the exact! same monitor which I have owned for 4 years. my screen went black as i was playing a game. I was very frustrated trying to fix it. then i saw the video ! tried and it worked! big thanks!
Its not working for me. My comp it is 10ft from my monitor so for cable management i got 15ft cables. 2 display and 1 hdmi. The 15ft hdmi works but DP does not. If i switch to a 10ft DP it works. Is 15ft too long or is there another trick you know of.
Rtx2080
Asus PG278QR
Monoprice cables
Yes, seems to be too long, it might not have good shielding from external signals. Long HDMI/DP cables tend to cost a LOT of money, and I mean a lot. So if you went for one of the cheaper ones, it might not have proper shielding. Or simply signal just drops going through such distance.
May new acer windows 10 8th gen. Monitor no signal how ro fix? Anyone can help me? Thanks
Bruhhhhhhhh.....you are a godsend my man. I was going N U T S, pulling my GPU, changing cables.....never occurred to just power-cycle the monitor. THANKS BUDDY
Bruh...it actually worked
This worked. Didn't think it would. Wouldn't have tried if you hadn't suggested it. 10/10
Thanks for the tip!!! You saved my day. It worked like a charm after 45 minutes of frustration and thinking I had a defective graphics card on a brand new Dell computer.
Works on a Samsung 32 as well. You genius. Is your name Roy? "Hello IT, have you tried turning it off and on again?". I swear I turned everything on and off except physically unplugging the monitor.
went through this issue for 2 hours, just to realize the whole tip of the cable was supposed to go in. definitely drinking tonight
BROOOOOO U SAVED MEEEEEE
god damn im dumb
5 years after video was posted and still fixing issues. This happened before and I bought a new cable thinking that was the issue and it worked. Less than 3 months and it happened again. Found this video and figured I would try it and it worked!
ohh i love you "no homo" TYSM wven if its 3 years since you uploaded this video
Words cannot describe how happy I am to have found this video. You are a lifesaver!
I just finished setting up my dell desktop in my room. I’ve got all the wires plugged in the right place i think. And had the same thing so I unplugged it for 30 seconds n back in now it’s says my pc didn’t start up correctly so I’m restarting it.
Is that the right thing to do ?
5 years and still saving lives!! Thank you 😅❤
Didnt work for me too

Dude, you're a legend for this. I was looking at refresh rates and going through so many fixes but this did it first try. Thanks so much!
This doesn’t work, still no signal.

i had same problem.Take it easy ,just buy certificated dp.
I did this little trick, but with not much hope and my TV doesn’t lag at all anymore. I‘m speechless.

I cant belive this actually worked I bought a new display port and a new psu nothing worked and I just did this simple fix and it worked thankyou so much
Nothing worked.
Then realized i had 3 display ports on my Graphics card, tried one by one with this solution... of course the 3rd one worked fml
Thanks
Bro you are a legend! I literally forgot about my second port after moving my setup and like an idiot i tried a bunch of unnecessary attempts until i read this. Means a lot thanks!!
Smh I feel like a dumbass now
THANK YOU FREDDY LOVE YOU BRO. Quick tip if this doesn’t work for someone! If you have a second monitor connected via hdmi disconnect it and follow the steps Freddy tells you about :) worked for me after that. I also plugged in my monitor only after my pc was on
IT WORKS LMAO
Can't even speak man.. i bought a msi G272 gaming monitor. Didn't had a luck with HDMi also. I have been worrying for days man.. you saved me man... + Sub this is my favorite video man
i called the service centre then watched your video,,,baam monitor starts working, saves me a headache, thankyou!
Bro you’re the goat. I literally took my entire pc apart to find the issue and couldn’t find it and was stressing out so hard 😂. Then I find this and just laugh at the fact that it worked and I wasted the last hour and a half diagnosing the issue in the wrong place
Cannot believe it ! Tried many things even changed to HDMI ! But the HZ was not efficient after trying this twice it worked !!
Dude, I thought my monitor was busted. You just saved me a few hundred bucks!!!
I randomly clicked on this video because I was having the same issue and was currently using an HDMI when I clicked on your video and I about shit myself when you said what monitor you have, I have the exact same monitor, I thought what are the chances that the first video I selected from my recommended videos involves a guy with the same issue, the exact same monitor, and an easy way to fix said problem but who cares thx for the helpful tip!!!
5 years later and this still works, TNX !!!❣
5 years later and this still works! Solved the problem in 60 seconds. How do I donate?
Was ready to buy a new cable but then this worked. Gotta say thank you for saving my money.
Thanks! Dear lord almighty. This actually worked! I was having issues with my new ARC A770 card and my ASUS 24 inch monitor not showing up. Only solution was to plug it into the motherboard port. 2 weeks of this hell.
Thank you! I’m glad that my video was able to help you out!! :)
