Press and hold the button, until the monitor turns itself off.
Then, turn it on, and hope that it works correctly.

jodiebland, If your pc operates perfectly when connected to a different "known-good" lcd or crt monitor, then you will need to spend some time reading FIXYA profiles of "budmrtn" , "buddymc" , "12fixlouie"(me) and follow info and links you find there. Then pay a visit to YOUTUBE and search out and view video clips(useful ones) that deal with "lcd monitor repair" and "lcd monitor disassembly" !!!! You will truly be amazed with how easy it might be to evaluate and refurbish/repair(cheap) your unit. If you are NOT into DIY stuff, then buy new unit or contract-out the refurbishment to a willing technician($40 to $90) or a manufacturer cash+old unit swapout for a rebuilt unit with 30 day warranty. Let me know what you will do. Do a reply(comment) to this response if you feel that it has helped you in the decision making process. 12fixlouie

This can be fixed by contacting the service center of Proview company.

Power supply will be the first place to look.

Hello,

It is the picture picture board on your monitor that is malfunctioning, since the power led or button is on, but the display screen goes blank after few 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.

First thing to do is to check the setting on your PC to make sure the power saivng is not set to turn off the monitor after 2 minutes. Second, try it on another PC. If the problem is still there and you are going to DIY repair, then please read below:

Hi there,
Firstly make sure that you :

• Check the audio cable connector. (Connect the audio cable to the sound card of your computer.)
• Make sure the computer sound program is working.
• Change the volume on sound setting. Adjust your sound card or computer volume setting.

if all the issues above have been checked and still not produce sound, then maybe you need a User's Guide.
here I included the User's guide download Link (PDF):

You can ask me for more assist, and I'll be glad to help you more.
Regards

tommy_hart00, The higher numbered pages of my fixya profile will give you more insight as to possible cause of your unit's failure to start-up and operate correctly. Follow links you find there to other web sites and then make decision to fix or trade for new. Just do some reading first! Your monitor isn't any different than any other CCFL back-lit lcd unit.
