check the refresh rate may have been changed if you used a full screen game.

If tv might want 60Hz and laptop is configured for 75Hz the TV will just show blank.

check the pins on the cable (both ends), make sure neither ends have bent pins.

Hi all,

I recently had my laptop connected to my tv via a 15pin VGA cable and everything was working fine.

I went to plug it in again tonight and the screen went blank on my laptop and I was getting a blue screen on the TV (no signal)

Does anyone have any idea what has went wrong, or how to fix it?

Cheers.
