Hi,

If you have already checked the connections from the screen to the PC, check that you have a power light on the screen. (Green or Amber). If no light, check power to screen. If it is amber, then the screen is not getting a signal from the PC - recheck connections. I would suggest you try and connect the pc to a different monitor to check whether it is the screen or the PC.

If it is the same on another Monitor or if the power button is green on the screen, then the pc is not sending information properly. Turn the pc off manually by holding the power button on the bottom half for about 10 seconds. All lights should go off from it. Now turn it back on again and see what happens.

If you see loading windows and then goes black, do the following:

Turn off the pc (bottom half). Turn back on and as soon as you pressed the button to turn on, start tapping the F8 key until you come to "Windows Advanced options" screen. use the arrow keys and go to Enable VGA mode. Press the return key twice. If it loads to windows, then fine. If not, then you may have a problem with the display adapter.

Hope that helps

Top half of screen is mostly blurred out. I can only read what is on bottom half of screen. I held the button down to reset it a couple of times and it is not helping. I also recharged it.

It seems the Display screen (LCD) of your device is damaged. you can reconfirm by resetting your phone to default settings. If resetting the phone does not make any difference I am afraid to say that you will have to replace the display of your device.

A Green Blotchy Area about 9 in oval in the upper part of teh screen

Plasma with Burn in within 3 years, I bet. I've seen Week old plasma's with burn in. Plasma technology is not as good as some would make it out to be. Due to the nature of the physics of the device, it is susceptible to something called "Burn-in" When an image of any form is displayed for long periods of time on a Plasma display, they start to literally burn in or wear out that part of the screen faster than a moving picture elsewhere on the screen. ie. If you have a television that is always on one channel and that channel always displays the little logo in the bottom right of the screen (abc, cbs, speed...) that kind of thing, you will eventually actually be able to read that logo even when the plasma tv is turned off. Check your manual or the manufacturer's website for your tv, and somewhere in there, it will refer to a "half-life" of the tv. ie. if your model has a 2000 hr half life, after 2000 hours of viewing, the display can at maximum, put out 1/2 of it's total brightness output. after another 2000 hrs 1/2 again as bright. and eventually it will be so dim that it's unusable. This is a fault with Plasma technology, LCD does not have this issue. CRT used to have this issue, but advances in technology have lowered this risk. So. What you are seeing is remnants of a bright image that was more often shown on that part of the screen than anywhere else on the screen. There is nothing that can be done other than replace the unit (or the screen, but it's easier to change the whole unit). if you've had this unit for 3+ years, you did pretty well. doing the math, if you only use your tv for 2 hours a day, for the 3 years you own it, assuming a 2000 hr half life, you've broken that limit. meaning that you will have parts of your screen that are very likely half as bright as others. Nature of the beast (plasma). This is why they are not as popular as they are advertised. Try an LCD next time.

Aqua Plus(PL-PLUS) panel does not come up. No signs of life. I

on the back side of the board you will find a part shaped like a half dollar. It acts as a fuse and you can solder across it [jump it] that was all I had to do to mine and it saved me over 300 dollars, works fine now. Or you can replace it for around $2.00.

I have a Microtek 710S which suddenly will not show anything other than a black, blank screen. When I turn on the button in the bottom center of the frame, it alternately changes color every second or...

Does it show any sign of life when you poweron the PC? With the PC powered on, remove the data cable of the monitor (yes the D plug) from the PC and insert it back. See if there are any signs of life. If there are any signs of life, reboot in safe mode by pressing F8 at bootup. If it boots in Safe Mode, then go to Control panel->Display->Settings->Advanced. Remove the Monitor and let windows detect the monitor. Same thing can also be done from Control Panel->System->Hardware->Device Manager-. Monitor. Remove the monitor and from Actions select Scan for New HW.
