CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 231
A user reports that a display is slow to turn on, and the colors are distorted and discolored. Once the display turns on, it appears to have lines going through the image and intermittently goes blank. Which of the following is the most likely cause of the issue?
Answer options
- A. Incorrect data source
- B. Incorrect resolution settings
- C. Physical cabling issues
- D. Incorrect refresh rate
- E. Display burn-in
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C, as physical cabling issues can lead to poor connectivity, resulting in distorted colors and intermittent display problems. Options A, B, D, and E are less likely because they typically do not cause the display to turn on slowly or exhibit consistent blanking and lines in the image.
