When on its shuts off by it self after a few minutes.Then comes back on after I hit the on button again.I was given this monitor,so got no softweare with it.What can I do(if anything)to fix this..thanx Ron

Your monitor is telling you that it is time for you to replace it. Your monitor is going bad on you and will only get worse.

Try unplugging the tv and taking batteries out of remote for a few seconds

It sounds like you've got a diode overheating in the power supply, triggering a self protect shut down. Given the cost of repairs, unless you're qualified to do the repairs yourself, it'll be less expensive to purchase a new one than to fix that one.

Bad solder connection on CRT circuit board resolder all bad connectios

could be your pc vga card?

you can press the clear off button for 3-5 seconds this should turn off the oven. if not turn off the circuit breaker for a few minutes then turn it back on and hit the clear off button again

it may be broken switch that makes a surge in power circuit

Sounds like the computer is shutting it down and the monitor is fine. Check for viruses then check your settings in device manager for the screen saver and power down (screen off) options.

I have the same problem and I think its the circuit board on the power on button and blue led. I unplug the board when the monitor is on and then the monitor stays on and works OK.
It don't make any sence it is only 3 parts switch led connector
anybody else run into the problem

Hello there topothemorni,

Are you familiar with Windows' "Power Options" module, and that within it you can tweak all things related to power saving (e.g., system sleep, hibernate, and automatic MONITOR shut off)? More than likely you just need to make a visit there and make some desired adjustments.

[Control Panel > Power Options]
... OR ...
Start > Run > type "powercfg.cpl" (without quotes), then hit Enter.

Once there, you'll probably find most everything self-explanatory.

Also, it may be responding to configurations adjustable from within the monitor itself. Somewhere on the monitor there will be a OSD (On Screen Display / Setup) button of some type, where from there you'll be able to make whatever necessary tweaks. Refer to its documentation if you don't find it self-explanatory.

Good luck and please let me know if you have any further questions, and/or just to let me know how things worked out.

"Today's the best day of my life...and NOW you're part of it!"
