    Monitor only turns on in safe Mode


    Hello my monitor only shows up in safe mode. I can go into recovery mode and boot up safe mode and safe mode with networking. I can also pull up the bios for the motherboard. It seems to be running otherwise. To add a layer of complexity, that display on my Ho omen and laptop screen went bad so I only use external monitors. When in safe mode it does say no GPU installed and 0 GB storage I did do a reset on the device.

    :)

    Monitor not working after booting in safe mode

    Hello,

    My pc was working perfectly fine, i disabled nvidia graphics to install new ones. i switched to safe mode by msconfig menu. now when i turn on my pc, everything runs except the monitor. so I'm stuck with a working pc,however, i dont get display. can't get out of safe mode without display.
    It happened before too, i found some steps to get out of safe mode without display with keyboard only.

    Also Monitor is connected to Motherboard VGA, i also tried the CMOS reset.

    Any help ?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

    Have you tried all the above steps suggested by Sangeeta Sarkar on September 13, 2015.

    I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better.

    • Are you trying to login the Microsoft account or the Local account in safe mode?
    • Did you try with only safe mode or safe mode with networking?
    • What is the critical error you are getting?

    If you are using Windows 10. To go to safe mode you have to follow the below steps.

    If you are able to go to login screen in normal mode try the below steps to go to safe mode with networking.


    • At the login screen click on the power symbol.

    • Hold SHIFT + Click Restart.

    • After restarting your system, select the Troubleshoot option.

    • Select advanced options under
      Troubleshoot screen.

    • Click on Startup Settings.

    • Click Restart and follow the onscreen steps to go to
      Safe Mode with networking and check if you are able to login.

    [*]
    Please get back with more information, we will be glad to help you further.

    My pc monitor wont turn on after being put into safe mode

    When I was trying to fix my graphics driver issue they AMD asked me to put my pc into safe mode. After doing that and restarting my Monitor is now saying no signal and having the monitor screen off. I have tried most of the other solutions but no idea. I have tried turning off safe mode but I cannot even do any suggestions to turn it off since my monitor has no signal. What should I do to fix these issues when I cannot find any solution?
