Precision T1700, Display Issues
I replaced my Dell Precision T1700 desktop with a Tower Plus EBT 2250. I ran the T1700 thru 2 Dell monitors but I now run the EBT through them - zero display issues. I need to keep the T1700 for some applications so I bought a single monitor & connected via VGA - monitor says no signal (T1700 doesn't have HDMI ports). So I get a different monitor & connect via display port - still no signal. I connect this latter monitor to the EBT - displays like a champ. I connect the T1700 to the 2 monitors - also displays like a champ. Why can't I get a signal from my T1700 to a new, single monitor?

Thanks for the response!
Old: Dell U2414H 1920x1080 Refresh rate: 60Hz Bit depth: 8 bit Color Space: SDR
New (VGA): Onn 1920x1080 75Hz ? ?
New (DP): Amazon 1920x1080 75Hz ? ?
I had read that the refresh rate wasn't an issue - was that incorrect?

It shouldn't be, usually monitors handle various frequencies aside the maximum supported.
Maybe check in the monitor menu if there's some gaming mode set and change to eco mode
