I have had this MV220 for about 3 years now and It has started to not stay on. The blue power light is steady for a few seconds then it loses it's picture. If I Shut the monitor down for a few days and plug it back in I get a picture for about 2 days then it goes back to what looks like power saving mode.

SOURCE: Monitor quit working today. Won't come out of power save mode.

two options it is bust, get a new one, before it blows away your desktop unit as well, it has locked into system shut down and you might be able to restore it if connections and desktop software OK ... the latter may be dangerous ... get advice servicing please ... I blew up two computers and the notebook blew up itself and a computer ... power shocks ... the notebook was guaranteed repaired ... I just found out the charge cable was shorting but then it had been 10/100 base cable connected to the desktop !!!!! Mike

The problem is with the backlight inverter driver. It thinks that one of the CFL lamps is bad. I fixed mine by opening it up and cutting a track in the inverter board (with the power off!!). But you need to be a bit of a geek to undertake this fix. I you want more details email me at [email protected]
