Based on your description, there might be a problem with the VGA cable of your ViewSonic PJD5122. Make sure that the VGA cable from your projector to your laptop is properly connected. You might need to replace the VGA cable if it doesn't work anymore. This type of cable can be purchased online at Amazon.com. Here's the link:
