Display not found on the sensor panel.
I recently upgraded my machine with several new components, yet I’m facing problems with the Sensor Panel display monitor. My system specs are: MSI Pro Z690A WiFi Asus Tuf 4070ti GPU, Core i5 12600KF, 32GB RAM, Corsair RM1000X, PSU, Sound Blaster AE-7, WD M.2, main drive with two SSDs, Noctua CPU cooler, Gigabyte curved monitor, and a 32-inch Asus ProArt at 2560x1440. The machine stays extremely cool even during stress tests like Heaven and 3D Mark. I found a new monitor, the FormulaMod FM-XSQ 8.8", which supports 1920x480 at 60Hz. It offers multiple ports—USB, Mini HDMI, RGB cable (compatible with headers or 4-pin connectors)—and all cables came with it. Setup was straightforward; after powering it up, everything functioned perfectly. The small monitor displayed my desktop as an extension, though compact and slightly stretched. After testing and initial configuration, I powered it down, reinstalled everything, and tried again. Now the tiny screen shows nothing—display is on, RGB works, but blank. I checked cables, ports, cables, even changed GPU connections and tried a new cable, but nothing fixed it. I replaced the monitor and drivers, reinstalled, yet the issue persists. I searched for updated drivers but found no success. Everyone suggests updating via Device Manager, but my generic NPP driver from 2012 still appears. I attempted a power cycle, changed HDMI connections, used the reset button on the panel, adjusted settings in Windows and the Nvidia app, switched resolutions, and set it as primary display—still no resolution. It’s odd it worked at installation but failed after restart. I’m considering testing it on another machine to see if the problem is with the monitor itself. Thanks for your help.
The main distinction seems to lie in the presence of panels on the case. It appears unrelated to drivers or software. There must be another factor influencing the change from the original configuration. Could the panels have affected cable connections? Did you modify anything to accommodate them? Attempt to restore the original setup. Remove the panels and follow the same process exactly as before.
Yes I have tried those suggestions, and the only reason I had the panel off was to route a power cable for the RGB, the other cables just plug in the back of the computer. Here are a few photos of what it looks like when it comes on. There is a white circular haze around the screen that goes away after 5-10 minutes. However if I disconnect the display in the Windows Multiple Display Menu, the screen turns off as it should. But when I re-enable the screen it has these vertical lines for 3-5 seconds which then fade into the white haze oval and then eventually disappear.
