Monitor problems My view sonic is only a little over a year old. It keeps turning off, I could just hit the button and it would come back on, now it will not come on. Is it worth it to get fixed or is there a quick fix. it is 20 inch monitor.

You may have power supply problem due to bad caps, open it up and look at the power supply module for bulging top or leaking. To have it repair will more likely to be over $100 plus parts if you can find the shop to repair them.

There are two places to look for the problems, the backlight inverter board and the power supply. Look at the power supply first since it is easier to get to, look for burnt parts, bad capacitors, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague Please post back what you find.
problem with the control board behind the buttons, my best advice would be to call viewsonic at (800) 688-6688. If your monitor happens to be unde warranty then setup a return to them so they can fix the problem. If your monitor is not under warranty then call them to get a part number for the control board behind the buttons and then search for the replacement part yourself and save some money that way and replace it.
I have a Viewsonic Flat Screen - recently I turn it on and all I see is like tye dye colors across the monitor with a slight ghost images of windows trying to boot-up. What can I do to fix this. The monitor is about 1 1/2 year old.
Yes, they are on the front of the screen. There should be a volume up and down button right on the front (usually to the left of the power). If there isn't a separate up and down, try the Menu or 1 and 2 buttons.
