try to remove memory the put it back

you guys......you don't have a software (driver, refresh rate, etc.) problem. When you first power up the monitor, do you get any display at all (ex, "analog input" or "No input signal")? Of course not - that's because you have a hardware problem with the monitor. Go here and watch the youtube video on how to take apart your monitor and find and replace the "domed" capacitors that have blown:

Fortunately I only had 1 ($1.76 at Radio Shack). I replaced it in less than 30 minutes and my monitor showed "no input signal" upon powerup as expected because I wasn't connected to my pc which is full of all kinds of drivers and refresh settings, etc.

Remove the stand. The front bezel separates from the black rear cover. You will need a nylon tool to separate the pieces.

The part is a capacitor, they go out because of the heat in the monitor. You can check out what they look like at our web site.

If it goes out again, you can fix it yourself.

Hello,This is a very common problem on this series on monitors. The problem is caused by filter capacitors in the power supply board that have failed. You can rebuild the board and the monitor will be as good as new. Here is a link to repair information for the VA1912wb monitors.http://www.ccl-la.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=90

Not a real expensive unit---if caps good you have to be able to check the voltages there next, can you?

most likely the back light is burned out. Since you do not mention the model number it is hard to tell if this uses a incandescent or florescent bulb.

Hi,
If you haven't installed some kind of an update manager then these dialogue boxes are most likely due to adware or spyware on your system.
Try installing an anti-spyware utility an do a full system scan for spyware. There are many spyware utilities available on the internet for free. Do a google search to find a free spyware application.
Hope this is helpful.

Since you hadd confirmed that the monitor is faulty with a swap then it seems that the input signal processor is faulty.
Only a signal test will confirm the fault in the stage , so check from the power supply section to see if the set has tripped off due to a protection- if so check the output drivers.

If the capacitors are polarised electrolytic type then they have a + and - leads. The - lead is marked on the capacitor with a stripe and a - sign. The circuit board where the capacitors are located will be marked with a - sign, make sure the capacitors are located correctly acording to the markings.
You need to put the capacitors with the correct values (capacitor) in the correct place on the circuit board.

If the capacitors are non polarised type the it does not matter which way they are inserted on the circuit board, but they have to be the correct value (capacitor).

Look for bad caps as shown in my pictures here:

Make sure to replace them as a set.

Learn about bad caps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague

Capacitors kit: http://lcdalternatives.auctivacommerce.com/ he can make you a set of caps for you. Or www.digikey.com just make sure to use caps with low ESR, 105c, high ripple current, long life rating such as PANASONIC FM or FC series.

Look for bad caps with domed top, worst case will be the lamp assembly, see my pictures here:

Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply (they should be replaced in a set), blown fuses; poor solder joints, 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 VIEWSONIC monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/yy352/budm/ Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.

The monitor shows no signal probably it didnt detect the tower
Ill be advising you to remoev the cable that conencts the cable
used a clean cot or rug clean both ends of the cable , clean also the area whre you plug in the cable , the ports on the monitor and on the CPU make sure its clean .
Then plugged it in , in case nothing happens
try to used another cable that conenct from the monitor to the CPU
you may aslo try to used other CPU to checked if monitor is working fine or try other monitor to checked if the port on the your CPU is working fine

Look for bad caps with domed tops.
