    i have a dell computer with integrated video card. recently it has quit showing anything on the moniter. the moniter works because i hooked it to my laptop to check it but i get nothing when i hook it to desktop. could it be bad integrated video or do i have another problem? the computer comes on and the lights on the back are working two are green and two are yellow what does this mean they are all supposed to be green. anyhelp would be appreciated i hope it is a quick fix

    Those green lights on the back, are reference lights to show that the system is working properly.

    Call Dell support, and they will walk you thru what they mean. It may not be the onboard video, it could also mean that the CPU has failed.
