My computer will not come on. It all happened when it frozed one day, and it stayed like that for a while. So I cut the power off without shutting it down and now it wont come back on. When I pressed the on button the light would come on the hard drive but nothing comes on the screen and everything is plugged in properly. What should I do?

This problem might be happening because of your monitor is not plug-in properly to the computer port, or maybe the monitor is damaged, or also might be a problem with your computer's video card.

1.- Try to remove your monitor's cord, and try to plug it in again.

2.-If the same problem persists, try with a different monitor.

3.- If the same situation persists might be your computer's video card that is damaged.
