My flatscreen monitor (HP w19b) kept powering down. I would push the on button, and it would go on then power down after 10 seconds. This morning it wouldn't go on at all for about 1/2 hour, then started doing the on/off thing again. Any suggestions? I checked all the cables. Thank you.

THE MANUAL: IS FREE.

    if the PC dies the monitor tells you it did
    if the PC goes to sleep or hibernate the monitor also tells you it did that.
    did it?
    Going to sleep
    no SIGNAL
    out of range (means PC set wrong resolution)
    power saver active.
    NO INPUTS.
    or like mine it shows scanning all ports for good video inputs, vga/dvi/hdmi.
    if non found it tells you that.

    during not turn on event you stated.
    I have more tests
    unplug the video cable from monitor to PC
    when you turn on the monitor
    all monitors sign on, with
    words, with HP logo.
    and with error message and then in about 10 seconds or so, the monitor goes asleep.

    if the monitor acts dead in this test
    the monitor is bad.
    for sure.
    and willfail while on all OTHER PCs you try it.
    how is that, for simple....
    the monitor good will also warn you
    NO SIGNAL errors, too. a good monitors does that any time the VGA or DVI cable is missing.

Hi sir, try to check for possible leaking or bloated filter capacitor in power supply board. That symptom might be caused by insufficient current draw from power supply source. Try to check sir. Maybe it could help. Thanks!

SOURCE: black screen

The power supply in this monitor has probably failed, but since HP doesn't stock spare parts for their monitors you will probably need to replace the whole monitor. HP only does full unit replacements on their LCD monitor range.

HP also doesn't provide any electronic schematics so getting it repaired will be difficult.

SOURCE: LCD monitor comes on for about 10 seconds then goes off

It sounds like the power supply board on the monitor may be faulty (that or the backlight).

You could test it on another computer to see if does the same thing (or another monitor on your computer).
If the same problem occurs on this LCD you'll either need to get it repaired under warranty, or pay for it to be repaired. Or just throw it out.

SOURCE: HP monitor vs17 goes black with power light flashing

I have repaired an HP 1702 monitor that had similar symptoms by replacing the capacitors on the power supply board but you have to have some electronic knowledge and do some soldering if you can buy the replacement capacitors($10+/-) from a supply store. They (at least 1) will be swollen up on the ends and may have a tar-like substance leaking from them. It is best to replace them all (may be 4 depending on the model).

SOURCE: blank HP w1907

If the power light does not turn color and stay's green on startup, it is not a power problem. It is most likely the inverter. If the unit is in warranty, send it out ASAP. Contact HP customer care by email and have the issue logged in.
If in warranty, they will send you a box by FedX second day and have repaired.
This is a 19" monitor and will not be worth paying for repairs if not in warranty.

How do I troubleshoot an unresponsive HP LCD monitor?

The easiest thing to do is find another monitor to plug in to determine if it is the monitor or the computer. Just because something has been stored does not mean that something fried the first time you plugged it back in. LCD monitors are notorious for having bad capacitors.

I have a hp w19b moniter and everything is hooked up even the speakers. However the speakers have yet to work. I have made sure there plugged in and everything.

The speakers in this monitor require a powered speaker output, and most audio cards only provide a line level output, which is not enough to drive these.
You may need to go out and get another sound card like a creative labs or the like - but make sure the card has a SPEAKER out on it, and not just a line level output.
You may be better off simply going out and getting a set of powered speakers!

HPW2338h goes black after about 3 seconds. Push power button on, it turns on and then black after 3 seconds. Power light on monitor stays on.

hi,

you can try to change the screen resolution with a spare monitor to a different setting, usually higher 1024X768, then unplug the old monitor and then plug in the flat screen. try different resolutions untill it submits. if you cant get it to run on your machine, take it to another computer and see if you can get it to run on that. if it wont run on either then you have a problem with the monitor. pawn shops usually have flatscreens for way cheaper than new..

Problem on hp monitor

I know you said there were others that had the same problem with the Main Menu coming up and I thought I would tell you what I did to fix the problem.

1. I shut down the PC.
2. I removed the power cable and video cable from the back of the monitor.
3. I removed the four screws that hold the stand for the monitor and slid the stand off.
4. I then removed the 5 screws that hold the back cover on the monitor.
5. I took two flat blade screw drivers and carefully removed the back cover.

At the bottom of the monitor case, there is a small circuit board the holds the 6 switches for controlling the display.

6. I located the button that calls up the Main Menu. It is the second switch from the left as you are looking at the monitor from the rear.
7. I used a small solder iron and heated up the four prongs in sequence while holding the switch with a pair of needle nose pliers. I had to rotate this process from one prong to the other while all the time applying slight pulling pressure on the switch pulling it away from the circuit board.
8. Once the switch was removed, I put the cover back on and tightened up the five screws.
9. Then I slid the base back in the slot it came from and tightened the four screws.
10. I connected the video and power cable and turned on the PC.

With the switch removed the Main Menu never popped up again and I am so very happy.
