Sounds like your video card. Check to make sure it's connected properly. If so, check to make sure it's properly seated to *********** board. The possible issue could be the card is connected enough to display the picture, but not enough to communicate with the monitor to stay on because it has an active feed. Best of luck fixing it

Hey Buddy

check the hardware compatablity list for windows if the Acer AL1916W 19" LCD is included then get the appropriate driver and install it

Try setting to the native resolution of 1440 x 900.

Hold the power button down for at least 10 seconds till the light goes out, then turn it on and the problem is gone.

When the LCD monitor display flickers and or has a black screen then the fault is usually a faulty inverter or the CCFL lamp. When you look at the screen at a sharp angle and you see a dim image then it is a backlight problem and it is caused by a faulty inverter or a CCFL lamp.

seen this problem many times, do as above stated. Return the moniter to where you bought it, if just purchased. Contact Acer if it is still under warranty.

1. Unplug the AC power cord to make sure the power is off.
turn the monitor upside down, you need 2 people for this.
2. Pull the 4 hooks on bottom side of the base and hold.
3. Separate the monitor and base.

Hi..there,

As you can see, the monitor does not have built-in speakers. Please verify the make and model.

Did you ever find the problem with this unit? BTW, a crappy video cable can cause this or the input impedance has changed on the monitor due to improper connections.

[u][b]LCD Monitor Shadow Effect[/b][/u]
This problem is best described as the LCD monitor "Shadow Effect".
The solution to this very simple. No software or hard ware changes required.
The cables that are connected to the LCD monitors are causing the problem. Its also called as electromagnetic noise or electrical noise.
[u][b]Solution: [/b][/u]Keep the two cables - (power cable and moitor display cable), that are connected to the LCD monitor as far away as possible with each other and also away from other electrical cables.
Thats it. Your shadow effect is fixed.
Thank you.
