No Signal Detetected Monitor - Tython
Alright, I have a bit of a puzzler. I have been playing for a bit, and have gotten a Trooper up into the 50's, going through Ord Mantell, Coruscant, Taris, and Nar Shadda. However, recently I wanted ...

Rolling back the driver did not solve the problem.
Apart from changing the connection method of the monitor
Press the Windows key + R and type
%localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings
go into the settings folder , identify the file with that characters name and delete it , then go into the GUIProfiles folder and also delete the UI profile for that character , should be defaulted with that characters name.
Go back to the settings folder and cut the client_settings file out to the desktop , on the next launch it will create a fresh one with defaults , see if any of this makes any difference.
If you didn't delete all the existing files when re-installing go to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic\swtor
and delete the file called diskcachearena , this is the games cachefile.
All done! Still got a Black Screen!
Switched to my Trooper to make sure it was still just confined to the Knight on Tython. No crashes on him~
Guess better run a file repair just to cover all other things
Non-Streaming launcher - Log into the launcher but don't click Play. Check for small letters "ST" in the bottom left corner.If this is NOT present, With the new launcher after login , select the username pulldown on the top right and select settings, then press repair.
Streaming launcher - If the letters "ST" is present, close the launcher, right mouse click on the game shortcut,select open file location and delete the BitRaider folder. Then start the launcherDone. Did not fix the problem.
I would try and borrow a different monitor just to be sure its not related to the monitor edid
Have you run a chkdsk to look for file system errors ?
No idea. I got the Jedi off Tython after turning Graphics settings to Low. No idea if that fixed the problem, or I got lucky. But now that I'm off, not feeling like pushing my luck. I've Hard Rebooted the computer 2 dozen or so times, and that isn't good for it.
Putting all gfx to low certainly makes it gfx related , glad to hear you found a workaround to get clear
if it re-occurs post back would like to track and still try and identify what is actually occurring as it isn't an issue normally seen.
