I am working on the computer sometimes on the internet some times not , when the power switches off on the monitor. The computer is still running even though the power to the monitor switches off
I only have the switch off problem in relation to some games. In normal use - no problem.
Typically, 10 or so minutes into a game (eg Brothers in Arms or GTA) the monitor switches off. LED goes out. By serially switching on again (& again) video will resume for another 5/10 mins. Then I give up. Didn't use to happen & Flight Simulator seems OK! Mystery! Will try refresh rate/ res solution suggested by Silly Girl! I only have the switch off problem in relation to some games.

Reboot pc until you have a picture, then try updating the drivers for the monitor and your gpu if applicable, outdated drivers can cause erratic and intermittent behavior. Navigation to drivers access varies slightly based on operating system.
bad switch i monitor.
fix switch
or new monitor.
its just a switch, it closes and OSD pops. on demand by said switch, OSD is a timing processor in the display that has the OSD code in it , "program"
Sorry not a solution - but I have started experiencing the exact same problem over the last month although sometimes, on switching on again, it will run for 10-15 minutes before the problem re-emerges. Initially I put it down to the v. hot weather in July but it still continues.
So I would also appreciate any solutions!
