T61 Video Out not working - Please Help!!!

I just bought a new Samsung SyncMaster P2470 monitor.  First time I connected it to my comp I was actually able to see my desktop on the screen but everything had a pink hue.  I thought it might be the cable so without switching the display back to my laptop - I disconnected the VGA cable and swapped it for another.  From that point on I have not been able to see anything on my external monitor!  If I hit Function-F7 my laptop screen goes black but nothing shows up on the monitor. 
I have updated the bios, reinstalled my drivers (intel mobile chip set), and scoured the web for an answer.  I know it's not the monitor because I've tried it with other laptops and it works fine.  I'm going crazy here because I really want to use the thing and right now it's just an expensive paper weight!  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've searched through the forum and there are a LOT of people with this same issue so I have a hard time believing that it's a hardware issue (unless every comp is supplied with a really crappy VGA port). I cannot believe there isn't a solution to this yet...

  • Video chat not working, Please help.

    Since upgrading to Tiger, I have tried just about everything suggested on this board to get ichat av to fully function. For months I have been trying off and on to use the AV functions of ichat. I have spent days reinstalling, clean installing, trashing plists etc... I have had success in engaging in a boring audio chats with all of the bots (appleu3testXX) but never have had luck with getting video to work. (But for some reason today i can not even audio chat with the bots, am getting insufficient bandwidth error) I can get the video preview and that is it. I get the error "Can not get video from the camera" when i attemt to connect to one of the bots. I just want to video chat with my sister halfway across the world. The error i get with her is "User failed to respond", or I failed to respond. I consider myself somewhat computer saavy, and am almost to the point of writing my own standalone application inorder to video chat with her. We do have a router (either a Cisco 828 G.SHDSL or a Cisco 805 Serial Router) at the studio to service the 50+ connections here. Our IT person has made the necessary adjustments on his end with the router. I am located in Amsterdam with about a 900 Kbps connection.
    Below is an error log when trying to video chat with a bot. My firewall is off.

  • The built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out.

    the built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out. OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)

    here is a sample code .
    so far you procedure looks good but
    i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
    see this
    Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
    DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
    END IF;
    Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    -- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
    -- here Pro_License is the name of report.
    did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
    try
    message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report".

  • I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    You mean an image such as a scanned document?
    If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
    You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

  • I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!

    I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!

    An iPhone backup to a computer via iTunes stores the photos in a backup file that is only meant to be be used if needed to restore back to the phone. There is 3rd party "extractor" software available but otherwise the photos are not directly viewable.
    The backup via iTunes was a good idea and your Camera Roll photos should be there and should be able to be restored to your new phone. However if it was me I wouldn't rely on that alone. I would also import the photos to a computer where you can see and verify that you have a copy. That is a good idea at any time (not just when you know you might need it). Any phone can be lost, broken, suffer hardware issues, etc at any time and lose all data on it. Following is a link with information on how to import the photos to a computer:  Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

    I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.

    I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
    After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
