Nearly everyone I know has a computer monitor--why should I expect something
different in OP's case? Even if he lives on a farm, so what--he has

much trouble to try it. Switching hardware parts is a valid method of
troubleshooting and its simple. And it is what I start with before I start
looking for complex software explanations.
