There are two problems, screen goes black after 2 seconds, red only. The problem is in the video processing board located on the back of the picture tube, it is well shielded against outside interference.

Normally when this type of problem happens, the first suspect would be the inverter board, then the filter capacitors and lastly the mainboard.
A defect in one of the lamps and faulty inverter IC may cause the display to shutdown as well. If the lamp is defective, it will send a feedback and cause it to stop producing output signal thus the display just shut off once you switch in ON.

SOURCE: Monitor displays desktop for a short while

this kind of trouble is very common to all LCD monitors. your inverter is shutting down. please check all capacitors at the power supply some are badged or blown on top due to hot pressure inside.

possible you have a loose connection in the cables.
try disconnecting and reconnecting a few times.
if there are smokers near the pc they can get pretty dirty with nicotine

Why does screen go black after a few seconds

Hope this helps.... Your monitor has an inverter issue. You know it's an inverter problem when:
1. Your monitor starts normally and displays the startup/desktop screen for a while.
2. Then it suddenly goes off, leaving a blank (black) screen or a very dim display.

To fix this black screen problem, change the inverter board (based on your monitor brand).

Is this a laptop?
This a common problem for monitors, especially on laptops. This cause by the inverter board. The inverter boosts voltage to light the screen. When goes bad they go bad they often work for a few seconds. If you look closely you can see the screen but the voltage is not there to get brightness.

Monitor shows picture for 1/2 second then goes black, 22" display. also will not show display menus. have hooked another monitor up and works fine. also have hooked up to another computor and problem...

When you switch the monitors, do you still use the very same vga cable? If you don't, then it's time to change the monitor. When it turns on and off inmediately it means that it's receiving the signal, but that's it. If it's brand new, exchange it.

Display fails after a couple of seconds

Connecting a different computer that works to it doesn't fix the problem(what does that mean, its not CLEAR at all)
my guess is you meant the new PC fails on this bad monitor , too.


ok the monitor fails on PC #2, sure....
so the monitor is bad, why ask for help, buy a new monitor.
why spend $100 to fix it when new is %50
why>?

your not going to fix any monitor, here, on fixya,
but there is one thing to check the very old monitors from compaq
ive answered this 4 times here now.
has menu botton
see that? push that now on the monitor
see that menu..
? one menu selection , has silly horrible, power saver timer on it
and a RTC clock that keeps time of day, (pc can be OFF)
if the power saver is on , get it off now, and if paranoid set the clock.
id set it. so its double safe, see?
this happened back in 2002.
i read you users guide for you its a 2001. oops, its got the above BS.

read page 18 and all related pages to this. clock and saver.
page 18 there, page 16 real.
if it one , the INANE thing will go to saver at odd times.
later this was removed for VESA , update, remote sleep rules. and time.
