Lp w1952tq goes into power saving mode

Hello,

The most common cause of power loss on the W1952TQ is a failure of the filter capacitors on the power supply board. This is the same board used in several of the LG monitors including the W2252. You can repair the monitor by replacing the capacitors on the board. Here is a link to a repair kit with the correct capacitors to rebuild the power board.

That is probably it's, uh, analog power saving mode. When the screen goes black and the power button flashes, make some mouse gestures or hit some keys that would not affect anything (try spacebar). That should bring up the screen. If you think it goes into power saving mode too fast, go to Control Panel --> Power Options, and change the values. Hope this helps.

check the primary settings for your default video card.

What brand is your laptop? Sometimes you have to manually switch between your laptop and an external monitor. Usually pressing the "CTRL" button and "F5" might work to switch the signal from laptop external.
