If you are going to DIY and have proper tools and know safety precaution then please read on:
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, blown fuses; poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed ACER monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.

HP Pavilion F1503 only displays a split second?

well, its a 2003 LDC 13 years old ,
its bad
the monitor itself of the power pack to it is bad.
you can test it on any PC< or laptop made
if its dead on all , then its dead.
what more needs saying,
older LCD monitors had old CCFL, lamps. that love to fail
newer are LED back lights that last for ever. it seems
so up grade?
seems your back light is dead
ever do the flash light trick
shine it at the dead screen see good data

I have hp w1907 computer monitor. After window startup my screen go black, the monitor light is blue, so it's on. If I press the the monitor button off then back on.....the screen will show for a second...

x2 test monitor on other pc.
if its ok we fix pC>
if the pc drops the sync lines H/V the monitor goes to sleep mode.
and tells you that.
the old monitors 2004 have timer inside,
does the OSD menu button on front of monitor work
with PC on,? it must.
OSD = on screed display from monitor brain
if yes, makes sure any menu there has the sleep timer off.
if it has it.
this monitor is old older than 2010. and has CCFL backlamps then and older.
so use flash light to see if data is on the screen if yes.
then the CCFL tubes are bad or the HV card inside dead.

yup your your service manaual
advanced OSD page clearly show the power saver clock
turn it off now.
of you cant get the OSD to work find a good PC
plug it in and turn this off below.


sevice manual google is your friend, sometimes.

The l226wtq goes black

Try shining a flashlight on the screen, or without the flashlight, try to see if you can distinguish anything on the screen at all, if you do, the backlight is dead, or the monitor has an internal most likely unfixable problem.

Two problems vx922 Black screen of Death and vx910 no power

You may want to tey another computer or another cable or update your video card drivers. Otherwise look very closely and see if you are able to see a very faint image of your background picture or icons if you have any.

Really im not kidding it might be a backlight issue.

Flashes on then goes black

The green light only lets you know there is a valid video signal reaching the monitor. If the green light was not "on" your problems would possibly be within the pc itself. Something is not holding the circuit for the backlight "on" thus going black. Suggestions are: 1. Take it to get it repaired (if not under warranty) Hyundai carries a 3 yr warranty on this monitor. Website provided. 2. Buy a new monitor http://www.hyundaiq.com/Eng/Customer/CusSvc/Csvc.asp
