CRT Monitor Stuck In Stand-By

I have a Compaq MV540 monitor that gets a signal from my computer but stays in stand-by mode when connected to either the motherboard or video card. It will work fine on other computers however.

Computer monitor when powered on screen says"saving power" and shuts down?

Try to connect the monitor on other source for signal -laptop or other known working computer.if it posible.
Try with other rgb cable.Moust of monitor go tu stand by or power saving mode when is not presence of signal from computer(h-sync )
If monitor works ok on other source,than problem is in your computer(vga card probably)
tip

I have found that this tip worked for my Compaq MV540 - press the diamind button...

The discoloration problem is due to the near by magnetic field appliances like speakers which are very near to monitors ...
so what you have to do is just keep some distance to the monitor from the speakers and other magnetic appliances and then press menu button & just give degauss..

Power light is blinking, but no diplay

Hi.

If the Power Light blinks, its means that the monitor is in ' STAND BY Mode '.
Monitor stays in Stand-by mode only if it does not getting any signals from computer.
please check the cable which connects the monitor and computer are connected properly.
Also check that the cable is connected to the proper slot of the computer.

If you hear some continuous beeps when you start the computer, then the problem may with the display card ( Video Adapter or Graphics card ) on the PC.

thank you

My monitor has kicked into sleep mode and won't "wake up".

Unplug all the Cables from Compaq Presario 5103 CL and leave the Keyboard, mouse and monitor cable pluged in.

Now make sure the power cable of the monitor should be pluged in and the power cable of the tower should be pluged in.

Now to check if the montor is fine just unplug the video cable only which will show no input signal on the screen. If it shows this signal the monitor is fine. Plug back in the video cable.

If the monitor is going to sleep mode it might be possible that the old computer ( Compaq Presario 5103 CL ) is in stand by mode. hit any key on the keyboard and it should come back .

If it is not in the stand by mode then do one thing. Check the same monitor with the new computer. If it is working. Perfect ..!

Do one thing now ..!

Unplug all the cables from your old system and then press the power button for 30 sec and let it go. Now plug the keyboard, mouse and the monitor try again.
If it works Perfect. If not ..!

Then you need to open the tower and check on the processor FAN is it running..? If its not running you will not get the display as the fan is responsible for the display on the screen. Otherwise...!

Check the Tower possibly the Tower is not getting the power.

Try these steps and let me know If it works

Sir Help me with my Compaq monitor MV520 it won't turn the power led flashing orange to green continously

it could be th epower supply and it could be the monitor.
power ON button should not flash orange regardless what you do. it should stay green. then orange. not orange to green to orange.
try the monitor on another PC if you can fine one.
the other thing is are the 2 monitor similar (CRT to CRT and LCD to LCD), you can't mix the the two, they will work but need different video driver to function correctly.

Monitor problem

If still under warranty or if you have no electronic repair experience you should take the set back to the shop or to a repair person. Some of the solutions described below can be dangerous, TV's are very hazardous to service. Even when plugged out, TV's can store very high voltages. May need to check the caps in the G-2 supply circuit. Also you may have a CRT going flakey. Just a slight G2 level adjustment may suffice also. Good luck
