The blinking Amber light can mean two things, one is that the monitor is not getting the video signal from your PC, or it can be problem in the monitor power supply due to bad caps. Please try it on another PC first before opening up the monitor. If is it the monitor then read below so you can make up your mind if you want to DIY or not.
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.

I have v193w acer desktop lcd screen suddenly it went black the blue light (( which mean that it's on and every thing works fine )) is on all the time but nothing appeared like the the screen is completly...

Ive had that problem recent, same monitor. Same months to be exact, though started around October 2010 then got worse. Do not send it back to Acer, I did and the cost was 20 bucks to ship to them and all I got was a note and monitor back saying they tested and then did Extended testing and found nothing. Not even had it for 1 year or 2 years to say, 3 year warranty. Just going to buy a new one and perhaps a LED from ASUS, the V stands for Value on Acer website, guess I got what I payed for. Think it was $166 I payed for this thing. It is shame, as its nice monitor but I cannot have it not trusty like this, cannot even play some games without it going off like this. Worst if I put the monitor in Graphics or Movie mode makes it worse it seems.

I have a Acer V193W Computer Monitor. When I turn it on I get a white screen then it goes black for like two seconds then comes back on with a white screen and stays on that way. What could the problem be?

The LCD panel is not getting the 5/12vdc from the logic board or the fuse on T-CON board is blown or bad T-CON board, it can also be due to bad 5VDC power supply caps in the power supply and in the logic board.
Please read my guide and look at the pictures at my photobucket.

Black screen when starting a game

check for the video card speed requirement of your game. it might be too high for your video cards, a 256MB video card could not display a game with 512MB video card speed requirement.

Won't come on

Try starting it after unplugging the devices Viz. Printer, Modem, ADSL, then during bootup Press F8 key to start it in Safe Mode..

Once you get in.. Run a checkdisk and diskcleanup.. and run Virus Scan etc. to get back in Normal mode.

Thanks
Scott
