Hi, I'm running a Compaq nx9010 laptop with XP and for the past several days have been using a dock with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse hooked up to it. It has not been used since I was on last night, nor has it been onlineand when I booted up this evening after work it showed the windows load screen on my external monitor (acer AL1912) but then went blank and I haven't been able to get it back. I went to the acer website to download the specific driver for said monitor, I've rebooted several times and nothing. When I boot up that useful indicator light on the acer does go from orange to green, but only for a little bit, nothing shows on the screen. Keyboard and mouse still working fine, as is the dock so I'm a bit lost. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
