Red light or green?
Check that the lead is connected from the screen to the base unit. If it is, give it a gentle wiggle at the base unit end. If it isn't, plug it in!!!

Green and flashing means it's getting power but no signal, but you know that anyway! Could mean that the video card has been dislodged, but you probably dont want to hear that!

I always get my brother to do remote assistance if I am stuck with something. Do you have anyone that can do that for you?
