What does signal over range mean when shown on computer?

Signal Over Range, means that your computer is sending a signal to the monitor that it cannot handle. You may need to readjust the settings of your display. Of course this may be difficult if you cannot see what you are doing, because the display is out of range. You should be able to run the computer in safe mode, as the graphics output is much less demanding. While in safe mode, you can change the display settings and restart. If this doesn't work, you still have another option. You can uninstall the display drivers, then let Windows reinstall them for you.

Can a computer screen be affected by a virus?

No, a computer screen cannot be affected by a virus. Viruses can display information on a computer screen or mess with your display settings, but they cannot attack the screen itself. Computer screens don't usually have hard drives or CPUs in them, so they cannot be infected with viruses.

You want to use a second monitor for presentations and you don't want to show your desktop?

The following is from Microsoft Help and Support:To install additional monitors # Turn off your computer. # Insert your additional Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) or Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) video adapter into an available slot. # Plug your additional monitor into the card. # Turn on your computer. Windows will detect the new video adapter and install the appropriate drivers. # Open Display in Control Panel. # On the Settings tab, click the monitor icon that represents the monitor you want to use in addition to your primary monitor. # Select the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor check box, and then click Apply or OK. If the check box is not displayed on your computer, it may be because your video adapter does not support multiple monitors. See Notes for information about compatible hardware. Notes * To open Display, click Start, click Control Panel, click Appearance and Themes, and then click Display. * Selecting the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor check box allows you to drag items across your screen onto alternate monitors. Or, you can resize a window to stretch it across more than one monitor. * To use the multiple monitor support feature, you need a PCI or AGP video adapter for each monitor. If you have an onboard video adapter (one that is not a plug-in card but is part of the motherboard) that you want to use as part of a multiple-monitor configuration, it must be set as VGA. To find hardware that is supported by Windows operating systems, visit the Windows Catalog on the Microsoft Web site. * If your computer doesn't recognize your second monitor, click Display Troubleshooter for more information. * The operating system always needs a VGA device. The computer's BIOS or EFI detects the VGA device based on slot order, unless the BIOS or EFI offers an option for choosing which device is to be treated as the VGA device. * The VGA device cannot be stopped, which is an important consideration for docking units. * The monitor that is designated as the primary monitor will display the logon dialog box when you start your computer. In addition, most programs will display windows on the primary monitor when you initially open them. * If you are using Dualview, skip steps 2 and 3 above. Just plug your second monitor into the video out port on your portable computer, or into the second video out port on your desktop computer. When you turn on your computer, it should recognize the second monitor. Follow steps 5 through 7 to extend your display to the second monitor. If the second monitor is not shown on the Settings tab, you might need to update your display driver. When using multiple monitors you may configure the computer to show the same information on all monitors or you may configure the computer to show separate information on all monitors.If you do not show the same information on all monitors you can drag windows from the main screen to the alternate screen.


What computer virus affects the monitor of a computer?

Viruses cannot directly affect your monitor, they can at most change image appearing on computer screen, and there are tons of viruses, so I can't tell you. Get an antivirus or a virus-proof system like Linux Mint.
