Monitor will not power on

Worked fine for four years. Left monitor on overnight like I usually do and it was in sleep mode (orange light on power button). Next morning it was off and would not power on. Tried different power cord, outlet, and different computer. No response from monitor at all. Was plugged into surge protector and not aware of any power problems in my home overnight. Is this monitor worth taking apart and attempting to fix? Is there a simple internal fuse to replace?

I suspect the monitor. For the sake of troubleshooting: Try another monitor for a few days. If you have the same issue, we will know it is the video card.

Worked fine this am now black screen blue power button

This is usually the inverter/power board failing. If it's under warranty, you should return for repair/replacement, if not, you can search for online the inverter/power supply board - it can be as expensive as finding a good clean used monitor, so many people choose to not go the repair route.

Good luck!

Monitor won't display.

I would suggest that the "Event" that caused the CB to trip has caused ya Monitor to fail.. Probably in the Power Supply, My "Pet" area... lol.. anyway Thats wat I would think. It may even have an internal "Fuse" that has "Blown"?
