Screen stays white but works after awile then i turn off it gos b

Change the LCD screen, it can be solved there is no image on the screen, but the power light stays on Dark display but still readable computer problems, this should help you:http://www.lcdinverters.net/

If you see "fractured lines" across the screen, it would appear that your LCD screen is broken. That's the only way these kinds of lines appear.
You need to replace the screen.

I have a strong suspicion that you have burned a capacitor or two on the monitor. You will need to bring this in to have it serviced as it will require the monitor to be opened up and new capacitors replaced/resoldered.

if the monitor turn white but the power light is stay on with green, then probably the back light tube was defective, and it will happen randomly in beginning and getting worse after while.

Replace the entire DAC board (board with power suplly going into it) for easiest solution.

If you turn off the computer you should be turning off the monitor as well.. is the monitor still white when your monitor is set off? if not, then its normal.

have a 17'' starlogic flatscreen monitor and i opened a game and it went to white screen and stayed there.

Hide the remote from the set for awile and see if that magically "cures" this symptom....accordianman

Some capacitors need to be replaced,which would have burnt out due to power fluctuations

The problem is in the "soft switch" technology: On some of Sylvania's newer monitors they have incorporated what is called "soft switch" technology. This allows your ATX power supplied computer to turn your monitor on and off using it?s software controls. Therefore, your monitor?s light will always stay on blinking even when your computer is off. The monitor in normal operation consumes about 80W of power; in the "OFF" state it will be reduced below 8W. The "OFF" mode of the monitor can be controlled by the PC input signal or by pushing the soft-power button to disable the PC signal control for manually turning off the monitor screen. Thus, when the monitor is in soft-power "OFF" mode it still consumes a very small amount of power. For the purpose of making it noticeable to the user that the monitor is in soft-power "OFF" mode, we designed the power indicator to provide for a slow blinking signal (every 2 seconds). If you need to totally turn off the power, then the power cord would have to be unplugged. The same is true of the PC itself, but the PC does not provide for notification while in "OFF" mode.
