I have confirmed that both the cable and monitor are working perfectly. I get No signal
and No Display
when connecting my Laptop to an external display.
The cable is VGA and the person using the computer before me said it was working fine.

P.S. I've tried different working cables and monitors. So it's not a monitor issue.
