Monitor Problem with Laptop (fine with Desktop)

[Eva]

I have an Envision 17-inch LCD monitor that worked well with both my
laptop and desktop. I have abandoned the desktop and now use only the
laptop but the monitor is not working with the laptop anymore. The
power/stand by light does not even turn on. But if I tried to connect
it with my desktop which is powered off, the light will come on.

Anyone as any idea what could have caused that problem and anything I
can do to fix it?

Thank you so much for your help.

Did you maybe disable the "VGA out" on the laptop? Most have hotkey
sequences to enable & disable that. Does another monitor work on the laptop?
