Check all connections.
Here's some tricks I would try...
1. Verify the monitor's power cord is plugged firmly into the wall outlet and the back of the monitor.
2. Verify the monitor cable is firmly connected to the computer and the monitor.
3. Verify that you have turned the monitor power switch on.
4. If the power light on the monitor is not on, test the wall outlet (plug in a light or something you know works).
5. If the power light on the monitor is not on, try a different power cord.
6. If the power light is on and yellow or orange or flashing, but nothing displays, or the display is incorrect, borrow a monitor from a friend. If that works, your monitor probably needs replaced.
7. Also, you could try your display on a friend's computer. If it doesn't work, your monitor probably needs replaced. If it works properly on your friends computer, the problem may be with your computers video output port, motherboard video chip (or video card, if you have one), or drivers.

Good luck.

SOURCE: syncmaster 225ms LCD monitor is blank

Hello,
It sounds like you have a monitor with a common problem. After a few years some LCD monitorswill blow a power supply. The problem is caused by parts calledcapacitors overheating in the confined space of he monitor. If you aregood at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix he problem. Check out a few pictures on my web site www.ccl-la.com/badcaps.htmYou can take the back cover off your monitor and look for the badparts, replace any that look like the pictues and your monitor shouldwork fine. The capacitors do need to be installed with the correct +and - connections, note the stripe on the old one and insert the new onethe same way. If you don't want to try the repair yourself we offer arepair service for $35 plus shipping. I hope this helps, if so pleaserate my solution.

SOURCE: Power button light flashes (blue flashing light)

You may have problem in the power supply section, that wil be the first place to check. Look for caps with bulging/leaking tops first.
Please see my photo albums so you will know what to look for.

Lg flatron w2234s monitor is flashing ??

I am going to suggest if it's only 3 months old you should take it back to where you bought it. Mine quit working right a few weeks after I bought it and they gave me a new one. Be sure you take your receipt with you. Even new things can mess up.
