At start up my monitor goes to sleep and stays. hooked up another monitor and it did the same thing. hp pavilion a6600f PC and hp w2207h monitor

WHAT IS IT, MUST I guess ?
HP W2207h "monitor" 2006 built, 13 years old today.
does it fail on 2 PCs, or just one, what a simple easy test no>?
and IT has those junky CCFL lamps inside, that most are now dim dead this old. (it is hopeless to own this monitor this old) sorry
buy 2010 models and newer only with LED back lamps!!
ok, google tells me it is and HP monitor (old)
if the PC is dead or in sleep mode /hibernation or hybrid speed
all monitors do that, the monitor is just a slave of the PC
if the PC is dead the monitor goes to sleep on all modern PCs.
that way it doesnt burn up the screen, ok?

next up is the monitors OSD menu button on monitor front.
this old monitor has its own sleep timer inside the monitors
used for year 2001 PC that did not sleep then.
so was inside this silly old monitor so turn it off.
RTM here is your manual read page.32

if the monitor sleeps on 2 PCs turn off the timer
if dims out and a flash light shows, data the CCFL tubes are SHORT. (bad)
if the monitor is dead/dim/sleeping only on ONE PC then the PC is dead. a whole other topic and far more complex but we can do that,
here is question 1; of 20
do the fans blow air in the PC>? heard,felt seen?

Hello,

One of the possible reasons for this is oudated video driver.

Try updating the video driver. If you don't know how to do it, then use RadarSync. It will do everything.

tried to hooked up with other monitor just to ensure if the cause is your pc. if the monitor doesn't receive signal it will goes to stand by mode.

The refresh rate of the hp pavilion needs to be adjusted to match that of the other PC then it will work.
I have witten a tip on adjsuting refresh rates if you need help: http://www.fixya.com/support/r9352855-adjust_or_change_monitors_refresh_rate

Most likely you have problem with a power box. Just replace it.

Go to: Start/Control Panel/Windows Firewall

i thing that is motherboard problem,,, check some others parts..

Sounds like your video card is failing. If the video is internal to the motherboard, get a video card and add it to the motherboard if there is an open video slot available

Turn off the "powersaver" feature on your monitor by pressing <menu> then <management>then <powersaver> select off.
