Turn Off auto-adjustment screen

1.Check display cable from computer.

2. There is lose part inside.

3. Need to repair it.

1. Main filter capacitor 220mf / 420v problem.

2. There is any U P S or Speaker boxs near to monitor.

3. Electrical distabence.

4. PTC problem.

Your first step in troubleshooting this problem is to plug in another monitor to your computer. If you are having the same problem it is related to your computer. If the second monitor works fine then your original monitor is shot.

if available try switching another monitor and see if it does the same thing. If the other monitor works fine it is the monitor, if you get the same white screen on the other monitor .. it could be the video card, try updating the drivers. If the monitor is 4-5 yrs old it is probably the monitor.

some component might have loosen up on the circuit of your monitor! cleaning inside and resoldering loose components could fix your problem!

Assuming you've already checked your driver and system settings, tried a different monitor, and checked the cable and connector pins, this would almost certainly be a problem with the power or signal circuit board inside the monitor.

My HP f1703 is almost 3 years old and started having this same problem. My fix got the display to stay on. Don't know how long this fix will work. I set the monitor brightness to 51 and contrast to 41. You may have to adjust to your levels to your appropriate enviroment. Levels may determine how long the monitor stay operational. Do NOT set your monitor brightness to factory levels it will just start to recreate the problem again. Solution: The monitor should be on with the blue button lighted. If the screen is acting up (you turn it on and the display lights up and then it turns off within 2 to 5 seconds) Try decreasing the brightness level down as much as possible. Wait 15 to 30 seconds and see if the display comes back to life. If not, turn the monitor off and on again and try the procedure again, if necessary. Cause: I believe the monitor brightness level, set at 100 by the factory setting, is over driving the display and causing the protection circuit to cut off the flouresent lamps that light the display. HP had an issue with this display, and had a notice to replace them if the problem occurred during the warranty period. They extended the warranty period from Jun 04 to Feb 06. Check with HP Technical Support to determine if your monitor is cover.
