Pl2010m got off ebay, no power cord, bought one and monitor won't work. On start up, quick flash of screen and then it goes black. The green led light goes to orange. Any solutions?
Try booting the pc in safe mode (press f8 at startup). It may be possible that the pc is trying to send too high a resolution to the monitor...unlikely though. The symptom you describe usually indicates that the power board or the inverter board in the monitor are defective. If it does the same thing in safe mode, you have 2 options.
1. Replace the power board and inverter board (do the inverter board first.......it's the cheaper one (10-20 dollars).
2. Send the monitor back to the seller for a refund, or get a new monitor.
Sorry I couldn't give you more positive feedback. Hope this helps.
