How can you correct computer screen problems?

It depends on the problem. Could be corrected by going to Control Panel, Display Options and making the corrections. It may be because the monitor is going bad or a magnetic fied is interfering with the displayMaybe a setting on the monitor itself needs to be changed. It could be a bad cable connection. There's no one fix for everything. Not even just replacing the monitor because the monitor might not be the problem.


Why monitor does not get signal from CPU?

Could be a bad cable, or a bad graphics card. However, try the simple fix, first. Detach your monitor from the power source and the computer, reattach and then restart the computer. Sometimes the connection to the computer and/or power gets loose, so the computer doesn't "see" it.

What should you do if your computer start flickering?

I hope you mean the monitor, because the only thing I can easily think of that would cause the actual computer to start unexpectedly flickering is it being on fire. You haven't really given us enough details. However, if you can't figure it out on your own, you should probably take it to a computer professional to have a look at it. There are lots of things that could cause the monitor to flicker, including "the monitor is going bad", and they have all kinds of different remedies.

How you can test the oxygen sensors?

There really isn't any way to test the oxygen sensor to see if it is good or bad. If your check engine light is on you can take it to Autozone and they will hook it up to computer and if the oxygen sensor is bad, the computer will detect it.
