This sort of flickering is sometimes reduced by turning brightness up. You have already tried that. My guess this is a PWM led monitor and that characteristic is what is bothering you. There are monitors that do not have the PWM feature. You can safely assume they are more expensive.

Hi,

check that all the cables are properly connected, if possible test the monitor on another computer.

if the problem persist when connected to another computer, the problem is in the display itself. You could try going into the menu, and resetting it to factory defaults.

if that doesn't help the problem is most likely inside the display, possibly some of the components on the powersupply are worn out. Capacitors typically, which might need to be replaced in order to get rid of the problem.

the problem can also be in the settings of the computer, but if noting has been changed recently then its unlikely.

you can also try another cable, since the display has more than one way to connect to the computer, you could try another type of cable that fits the display and your computer.

if the display is still covered by warranty, after you have checked that the problem is not being caused by the settings of the monitor or by your computer, then you might want to get in touch with your dealer to arrange service / warranty replacement.

Hope it helps.

Dell s2309wb flickers a bit and then turns off at any brightness setting under 73%. After turning off and on, shuts off again after a few seconds. 4.7 year old monitor.

older post DELL says its 10 years old made in 2008
yes,
did you test this monitor unplugged on PC using the OSD screen
for 10 seconds, each power on OSD works.
see if 50% brightness works, if yes, the PC has problems.
seems you did and did not test monitor on other PC
and did not test your PC on other monitor,.both simple tests.

you are now speculating that one brand is better that another,
Viewsonic is best, HP and deLL< others not so.
what you failed to do is test your PC with known good monitor
and test the monitor on a known good PC.
2 tests. that yell truth.

Id go Viewsonic, we have many here, not one failed ever.
2010 or newer,
back in before year 2010 LED monitors they had JUNK monitors.
with weak low life, CCFL tubes inside, as YOURS DOES.
all monitors had that then, its not maker name issue at ALL.
here is how I discover truth,
1: I PRETEND TO BUY THE MAIN BOARD IN YOUR MONITOR.
AND LOW AND BELOLD CCFL H3LL IS THERE,
  • go dim,
  • go yellow on white pages.
  • strobe.
  • totally crazy random works or not,
  • blinks
  • will not dim right.(gee they are now old and weak)
  • last 20,000 hrs (not much) and do all the above,
  • now your board see these 4 jacks on the left 1000vdc to CCLF.
I have posted these hard fact there at fixya 100 + times.
here it is 1 more time.
I have the same tubes in my garage ceiling laps 8ft long and do the same thing.

Powered but not booting. No visual. HDD light not doing anything.

Remove the RAM and start, see if it beeps and/or shows something on the screen. Try with the external screen too.

LCD problems

Try turning the brightness all the way up to 100. That seemed to solve the problem for now. I believe neilneves is right that the power inverter is not supplying enough power, but in my case at least, by increasing the brightness the LCD is now receiving enough power to not flicker.
