Hi steve108. I'm not certain if this is a Windows issue... as I can connect to another monitor that I have (non-Benq) and it connects fine without issue.

Thanks FreeBooter, I've already tried to manually set/point the monitor to HDMI. Still does nothing.

Hi Steve108. That's what I'm trying to do is just trying to get one of them to work. But still nothing. How does one get into the BIOS?

Thanks for your quick response FreeBooter, but I have already tried that. Still the same issue and I get the "No cable connected" message on the Benq monitor.

[QUOTE=Bree;1053462]That cures the symptoms - it doesn't cure the underlying problem. Try now scheduling a Chkdisk at boot using CHKDSK /F C: and see if it runs successfully. I suspect it won't.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

When I enter fsutil dirty query C: into the cmd prompt I get an "access is denied" message.

So that we're clear, my laptop does not have an HDD... it only has an SSD. Does this make a difference in your instructions above?

Just some additional info... my HP has an SSD.
