I picked up a used westinghouse monitor, LCM-19v5, and it works fine as a plug and play. I was wondering if there might be a driver for it to download that might make it even more crisp and sharp.

Look for bad caps with bulging tops, similar to the 19" version as shown here:

Make sure to use correct type caps for switching power supply.

Learn about bad caps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague

Capacitors kit: http://lcdalternatives.auctivacommerce.com/ he can make you a set of caps for you.
Or www.digikey.com just make sure to use caps with low ESR, 105c, high ripple current, long life rating such as PANASONIC FM or FC series.

Hello,

The most common thing that causes no power or a blinking power light and no picture is a failure of the power supply board. The board can be repaired and the monitor will be as good as new. To repair the board you just need to replace a few parts called capacitors. Here is a link to repair information on the Westinghouse LCM-19V5

I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

check ur cable connections from the monitor to the computer and from the monitor to to the wall outlet.

Check the capacitors in the power supply, see pictures here for a guide so you know what to look for.

I believe the 19v5 uses the same chassis as the 20v5.
Post back what you find so we can guide you further.

More likely to be bad capacitors in the power supply, see LCM-20V5 (almost the same chassis as used in LCM-19V5) example: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

Post back what you see insdie so we can guide you further.

The powere cord you are using is fine (the cord is made to handle the 10A load, you are only drawing 1.5A). The monitor uses switching mode power supply that can handle any voltage INPUT between 100v up to 240v. More likely to be bad caps in the power supply. See example of failed Westinghouse due to bad caps: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

in the safe mode you have to change the resoulution and the frequency to 60 hz you can get it by fright click on the screen and then choose properties and then choose settings and adjust the resolution to 1280 to 800 and then choose advanced then choose monitor then choose the frecuancy to 60 hz ok and apply ok and insa every thing will be ok conntact me for more if you still haveing the same problem

you can look for other caps that are bad on the board that may have failed later.

hear is a list of replacements for all the caps on the 20v5 i have

See article written by sillybit (me) for the Westinghouse 19v5. My 20v5 had bad caps in the power supply - it did the exact same thing as yours. $8 worth of parts from radioshack and an hour or two is all mine needed.
