My SyncMaster 940BW Samsung monitor does not respond to any Laptop/computer connection. The on/off blue botton is blinking. It worked well a while ago. ANy suggestions?

Hi there,
You can try to disconnect VGA cable to see will the notification "no VGA signal" appear on screen. If so the problem could be with PC graphics, else it is power board problem bad caps.Thanks

My model : Samsung SyncMaster 940bw After change of setting, I am getting images which are not clear and crisp and having less colour content

Good Morning!
One thing that I have noticed when I change settings on my monitor is that sometimes it needs to be re-aligned. Thankfully this is very easy to do. There is a button on the bottom right of the screen that says "Auto".

Press this button and you should see the screen shift and become sharper.
If this does not work, you may want to change the monitor back to the default settings. You can do this by navigating through the menu: Press the Menu Button -> Select "Setup" from the on-screen menu -> And then separately select "Image Reset" and "Color Reset".
Please feel free to comment back if this does not solve your problem.
Thanks!

Broken mount on back of monitor to base

the easiest solution would be to epoxy the mount back though you may loose ability to tilt monitor, be sure not block any air holes. when setting together tape it to proper spot and let set for recommended time on epoxy(get at hardware store).

How to connect my speakers to my monitor

you will not be able to connect your speakers to your 940BW monitor, because the monitor itself does not have any audio in/outs (or speakers for that matter).

what you will need to do, is to hook up to your computer tower. usually, most soundcards will colour-code the 3.5mm jacks you need green (although I have seen cards that have black jacks as well).

Hello
damnor01 here to the rescue!

Welcome to Fixya.

Since you pushed the Auto button it is possible that the monitor has changed the input type to a type other than that you are currently using.

For instance it may have chosen to accept VGA input however you have the DVI or HDMI connected.
To fix this you will have to push the auto button again, and possibly again to get it to find your current input channel.
You may need to turn your computer off and then back on again.

You may need to connect your monitor using a different connector, example via VGA, DVI or HDMI. It all depends on the connection you have at present.
Blue Connector is VGA.
White connector is DVI.
HDMI is very narrow conector usually black.

Please be sure to rate this session!
Thanking you
