I dont know the answer but i also got the same problem..
When i start my pc suddenly one flash will come in monitor and go. then i've to reboot my pc through switching off power and then on(Cause nothing in monitor i cant see anything for turn off or restart) then may be on 2nd or third reboot screen will come..
do you mean the processor fan that is located near on the left top corner on the motherboard? if that stopped working then turn of your pc immediately. probably the cpu overheated. if that fan does not work replace it immediately as it will burn the cpu.
are you using the onboard? video... or a seperate vid card? if it was working and then suddenly quit? the onboard vid chip is out! cant replace that either try adding a seperate vid card and reboot
This means the monitor believes it's not connected to the computer. Verify the cables first of all. Then try booting in safe mode (F8 key at PC startup) in order to verify that the PC is sending data to the proper video port (you might have a dual VGA / Digital output, for example, and the monitor might be connected to the wrong PC port). Quite often, a "bad signal" will be the same of "no signal"; and you can have a bad signal if the monitor resolution on the PC is set too high. This could happen if you installed a high-resolution capable monitor, and then replaced it with a not-completely-plug-and-play, lower resolution one. The PC would keep sending hi-res signals to a monitor which can neither interpret them, nor tell the PC "please slow down". To check this last possibility, reboot your computer while the monitor is ON. When PCs reboot, they usually drop back to standard VGA signaling, which all monitors understand. If the monitor abruptly comes to life and displays a boot screen, then goes No Signal again after several seconds, you've got a resolution issue; get in Safe Mode with F8 key at boot, and modify the screen properties (right-mouse button on the desktop, then Properties).
If everything else fails, try also connecting the monitor to another PC or laptop, to see if it works there.
Your monitor is going into power saving mode. When it receives no video signal from the computer, it will stay powered for a few seconds before giving up and presuming the PC is off hence why it stays green for a while, then goes orange.
Normaly the monitor is not picking up the signal from the PC, it could
be VGA cord is not connected, faulty, or the video card is faulty,or
the monitor is not compatible to the PC. It could be one of my
suggestions. Trouble shoot by connecting your monitor to another
working PC and see what happens.If not the VGA cord is faulty and not
picking up signal from the PC. Hope it helps.
check both your power and video connections to the monitor, sounds more like a monitor power issue.
if the connections appear ok, but screen still blank, try connecting a known good working monitor from somewhere else and see if it works with your pc, if it does, your original monitor is faulty, if it doesn't, you have a pc video issue.
