SOURCE: HP vs 19 Flat Panel LCD Monitor will not turn on.

I too have an HP vs19 lcd monitor that the power stopped working around 18 months of use.
I have been searching trying to find a website that maybe someone had taken photos of their repairs on these vs19 lcd monitors.
Haven't found a site yet.

I would like to know before I attempt to open up the back of my monitor, the capacitors you are speaking of, are these soldering or do they just plug into the power board?

I'll be hitting the radio shack to see if I can get these capacitors.

SOURCE: no sound from speakers

Ok newer monitors come with a HDMI connector and would need a compatable HDMI video card that has the ability for sound. The older monitors have a 3mm plug like a head phone jack you can plug this directly into the GREEN portion of the sound card that is installed in your system!

I assume you have already tried this monitor with other PC and get the same result, just want to narrow down the problem before taking thing apart.
Most common failure in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed HP and other monitors to get some ideas what goes wrong: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further.

COMPAQ W17Q MONITOR CANNOT UNLOCK OSD

Here is the link to the monitor manual:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00881436.pdf
If you can operate the OSD menu, try resetting.
I have noticed in the past that Compaq products have proprietary wiring schemes for their cabling. If you are using a VGA/SVGA cable (D-Sub) make sure that all the pins are present and wired. A pass through type cable will ensure that this is done.

The guide you told me to use did not have my model number W17q so I could not use any of the information.

Hello, try this link to the hp website where you will be able to view a user guide.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00881436.pdf
If you want further info, then go to the main hp website:
www.hp.com
and select 'Support and Drivers' then on the next page, type in your
product 'W17Q' press 'search' then on the next screen scroll down and you'll see several options from which you can choose.

Unplugged monitor at one location and moved to a different location and the monitor will not work..... Tried a different monitor into the same PC and it worked fine. Viewsonic continues to go into power...

Sounds to me that it's a resolution problem. I think that the previous monitor that was hooked up to it last had a different resolution.

That or try restarting, it may need to install a driver.

Compaq w17q monitor keeps going on and off how can i fix it?

Hello,

1. check the power cords- make sure all are snug.
2. check and make sure no pins are bent in the cord to the computer
3. make sure that the monitor is not in auto-power save. Or in auto off mode. For example- is the light amber or green.
4. finally, make sure that your settings on your computer are not set to power off your monitor- as in a blank screen saver, power save or hibernate
