I have had this monitor for over a year now and today it has been blacking out every few minutes also. When it blacks out, the monitor lights showing it's status (eg Green for ON) are not displayed. After a few seconds it will come on again. I have tried switching the AC wires but this hasnt worked. Also, instead pushing the front ON button, the screen only comes on by pressing the side -/- buttons.Any ideas on the problem?
Look for bad caps in the power supply first, see example of failed VIEWSONIC monitors due to bad caps here: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

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). Source(s): http://lcdmonitorrepair.annics.com
well mine came with a three year warrintee, so iv sent mine back twice already, worst moniter, try finding your receipt and then going on to acer's online support
The picture board on your monitor is faulty or bad, since
it goes
black after few minutes, it means the
picture
board of your monitor has developed fault.
The best thing for you
to
do now is to take the monitor to a local repairer within your vicinity
to help with the replacement of the picture board or any service center
because the fault is not something you can fix yourself. in order not to
complicate issues.
nice meeting u pmulory ,first of all if your monitor is LCD its may be problem in mother board so please check it once and if it is CRT keep the monitor away from magnetic items and high electrical items like woofer,speakers,UPS etc due to that problem will occur ,yet your problem is not solved its better to change the monitor.
