I bought a MSI PRO MP275Q monitor from Amazon. I plug it in to my PC and the only thing the monitor does is cycle through solid colors on fullscreen. Looking around on the internet, it seems it is either in some sort of factory test mode or "burn in mode". The advice I see around is to try to reset the monitor using the On Screen Display, but the OSD doesn't show up. And even trying blindly to follow the OSD menus as they're pictured in the manual doesn't seem to be any help.
Curiously, the monitor does play the system sounds since the audio is sent through the HDMI and DisplayPort cables. But no dice with the image, it's just cycling through colors. Though at least I can discard the panel itself being a problem that way.
I don't want to return it since sending it back to Amazon would be way more expensive than it cost me (international shipping costs 400 dollars and Amazon only covers 20, and I only bought it from Amazon because they shipped it to me for a ridiculously low 5 dollars).
