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

I'm having the same issues and the monitor is three years old at least. This happens with digital. I haven't tried the analog input but I think it would act the same way regardless. I took a can of air to it and it showed some improvement so I'm going to try taking it apart and cleaning it out, I'm hoping it's just that simple. Glad to see I'm not the only one affected.
