Tlnwiayqydee, In terms of lcd monitor age, unit is VERY OLD. Cold cathode fluorescent lamps will need to be changed for new ones. Very hard to do for consumer/user!!! Best if you trade-in for new unit. Did you even look at the "date of manufacture" on back of unit? Look here for lamp information: www.rexim.com and www.jkllamps.com and www.lcdparts.net and www.lcdrepair.us You will need to also visit YOUTUBE for video clips of units being repaired. 12fixlouie

How can I fix my Sony SDM E96D TFT LCD color computer display goes on and off

There are a few possible reasons why your Sony SDM E96D TFT LCD color computer display might be turning on and off:
  1. The display might be overheating. If the display is in a poorly ventilated area, or if it has been running for an extended period of time, it may shut off to prevent damage. Try moving the display to a well-ventilated area, or allow it to cool down before using it again.
  2. The display might be experiencing a power issue. Check the power cord to make sure it is securely plugged in to both the display and the wall outlet. If the display is plugged in to a surge protector or power strip, try plugging it directly in to the wall outlet to see if this fixes the issue.
  3. There might be a problem with the display's hardware. If the display is still under warranty, you should contact Sony for service. If the display is not under warranty, you may need to take it to a repair shop to have it fixed.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hey, i have this sony tft lcd color computer display (SDM-HS 75). It was working fine earlier. I shifted to a new place and reconnected the monitor with the system. But now while booting and error message...

It is telling you that the PC videocard resolution is too high, when you boot up insfae mode, the resolution is lower. Does it do the same when attched to another PC? You should set the resolution to the native resolution of the monitor.

No picture Display when turned on lots of Colour lines, could this be the inverter board problem. the model is Sony TFT LCD Color Computer Display SDM-X72 Serial Number 4530624 Manufactured April...

This is not an inverter problem. The inverter only powers the fluorescent lamps in the back of the LCD panel.

It is probably a fault in the LCD data decoder circuit or a failing connector between the decoder circuit board and the glass LCD panel. If you took it in to a shop, they would probably charge you a full hour's labor minimum - compare that with the price of a new LCD monitor.

My SOny SDM-S204 has no green in the computer display however, the monitor menu window is the correct color

Hello amellows, hi, check the video cable for loose connection, tighten the vga plug screw, try to wiggle the vga plug and see if there are changes on the display. As for the monitor menu, this is usually not affected, the colors are built in its onboard memory.

My Sony SDM-HS73 color is way too green. Happened after electrical power loss due to storm. Possible power surge damage??????????????

the only thing you can do is look at the monitor settings on the monitor itself and in display properties. Try to adjust it there. Also double check the connections on both the pc and the monitor (loose burnt ect...) otherwise toss it

Out of focus/fuzzy

Your screen refresh rate may be too high for the monitor or one of the parts might be incompatible with windows try lowering your screen refresh rate. Or checking windows for a compatible driver for the chip or monitor.
