Local computer shop Certainly agree that its not worth any money or even effort buyt I can't help myself when something should seemingly work but doesn't I start to hyperfocus on either making it work or at least figuring out why

LG Flatron W2043SE

Tbh bud iv never heard of that but google told me this If thats mistaken do you know how id tell which it is?

According to lg's website its that monitors maximu res As I said its old-ish

I believe so I turn on the comp and the PCSpecialist logo comes up with "hit f2 for Bios" and after that a black screen with a power saver mode popup

Yup tried that, same thing happens when the monitor is used alone it goes into power saver after the bios screen. I initially thought the monitor was a dud until i stumbled upon the work around of connecting the wire to my primary first.

Just installed those updates and restarted, no change. tbh iv no idea which ones were missing, i just hit download and let the comp do the rest

Ya that was the last step

Most of the Drivers installed with the amd software

Fresh install of windows done, screen was working after and continued to work after several restarts. Then this morning it was back to square one, monitor goes to power saver mode, the computer sees that its there and displays its stats but it still wont come out of power saver mode.

Have a fresh install running atm, will update if it solves the issue

Thanks for the advice folks, The os that came was a full version and paid for. Tweaks were made over phone with technician prior to sending finished comp

Perhaps unintended but your responses come across snarky as hell. I appreciate the advice all the same.

Cool, do you always give advice with that amount of attitude?

It did, I did some tweaks with them on the phone after ordering
