Monitor won't turn on

The reason why your monitor might not be recognizing a signal is because the graphics card in your pc might not be correctly plugged into a pci slot or your internal graphics may have a short somewhere. If the monitor turns completely off after it cycles Then it might be an internal problem with the backlighting in your monitor screen

You probably have failed capacitors inside the monitor. It's apparently a common problem that has happened to my Samsung.
Symptoms are flashing video for several seconds before becoming steady on. I am in the process of having new capacitors shipped to me so that I can repair it.
Try http://lcdalternatives.com/
They sell repair kits specific to monitors.
I did not see your specific monitor listed, but I did see the 2410. Send them an email and ask them if their kit for the 2410 will work, if not, then they can make a kit for you. You will have to identify some parts for them, but it should fix the problem and you won't have to buy a new monitor. For some reason they did not respond by phone.
Apparently due to corporate espionage, some companies made inferior capacitors for a time. It's called the "capacitor plague".

i would advice you to take your monitor to a technician, but if you are not ready, please leave the monitor on and make sure it is connected to ups u can now turn it on and off from the ups, if you continue the menu, Auto fit etc stuff, you might damage or disorganize the settings of your monitor which might cost you more. thanks

The capacitors in your monitor are blowing and need to be replaced.

check in back side of monitor reattch power cable after clean dust from it.
also check with other power cable that your monitor turn on with other cable.

One reason that this is happening could be that it is on Power saving mode. This happens when the LCD monitor detecs an incorrect timing then thats the time that the LCD goes blank and the power botton starts to blink.

what you need to do is to turn the computer off. Unplug cables attach to the LCD make sure it is also off, once done press the power botton for a couple of 30secs to a minute and then release. After doing so re-connect all the cables and make sure that both ends is tight and secure once everything is ok turn the computer on same with the monitor to check if it solves the problem.

Hi,

To my knowledge, it is compatible and certainly would work with XP. Since this monitor has both DVI and VGA inputs make is compatible for most video cards or even a built-in video of the PC. If for some reason the Acer X193W would not work with your Windows XP PC, possible reasons are:

• Screen Resolution and/or Screen refresh Rate of the PC's Display Properties too high, try lowering them down;
• hardware fault either on the monitor or video card;
• incorrect/missing drivers of the video card;
• it is being hooked as a secondary monitor and the dual/twin view is not activated.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

This is either power supply (not usually), backlight drawing to much current, or most likely an invertor board component failure. Built in overcurrent protection on many of these boards will provide a shutdown signal. Weak transistors will crash when they get hot. Hp monitors are notorious for inverter problems. The time between blackouts will decrease until it no longer will light at all. Repair or replace the invertor.

What is the TYPE # on the side of the monitor?
There is a known issue in TYPE 6636-AC1 and the like of the internal power supply going out.
My company has replaced over 300 of them in the last year!

your Mnotitor Panel Switches gone bad replace all the switches and your monitor will be ok.
