I have been to YOUTUBE to see video clips of cold cathode fluorescent lamp, back-lit, lcd monitors being repaired by their owners / technicians and have see some that are very good. Some are not so good with documentation. How "OLD" did you say unit is?? Will unit do same exact thing (black screen of death) when connected to different pc??? Research, Research, then come back to fixya for more info if you need it. Then read fixya profiles of "budmrtn" "buddymc" "12fixlouie"

Did you check the service manual troubleshooting guide yet. You can try disconnecting the power to the inverter board and see if it will stay on and have sound.

This could be because of the 'eco' friendliness of the monitor. Basically a lot of monitors are designed to turn off into a low power state when not in use so to preserve power and life of the monitor. I would return the monitor as the sensors that control this seem to be broken in your monitor.

Common problem in the 73/93 is poor soldering works in the Lamp assemblies. See pictures here:

You should also inspect the inverter board also for loose connections.

When i turn the monitor power button on monitor come on for about 3 seconds then screen goes black but power button is still lit. tryed old monitor and it works fine

Hello,

The picture board on your monitor is bad, since it goes black after three seconds, it means the picture board of your monitor has developed fault.

The best thing for you to do now is to take the monitor to a local repairer within your vicinity or any service center to help with the replacement of the picture board because the fault is not something you can fix yourself, in order not to complicate issues.

Take care.

Please list the model number of your monitor.
Also is the power light flashing? What color(s)?

Unfortunately the symptoms you are describing tell me the inverter/power board inside your monitor needs to be replaced.
