If you turn your monitor on and when its on you go into your computers settings. Where you can fix your monitor and fix the resolution and all that. There should be a thing there where you can put never shut off. You have it on 5 to 10 minutes to shut off. That will keep the monitor from turning off again. I did this with mine it kept shutting off to. Thanks for posting I hope this helps you. I am sorry I couldn't be more detailed. i have been up all night lol.

Adjust what voltage? Input range? Output range? Need a lot more info, for a useful response!

Very difficult indeed. We can't get inside it. Am't I right?

l connect monitor with any signal source

fuses are to stop FIRE.when electronics shorts out, the fuse blows.fix'g that takes skill. and to do it efficiently a special tool is used,we use a current probe to find shorts.lacking tools, its 10x harder, isolating parts, 1 by one and a box of spare fuses.take it in the the geek squad, and go broke,orbuy a new monitor. (i have no idea the cost of yours $100 or $3000 ) nor its age or model number.im a retired tech. Ive even repaired, USN HUGE PPI radar monitors. that yes.catch fire and **** out waves of hot stinking tar , out the bottom. SPA-4's.ive worked it all. need help, post better , input.model numbers and age of monitor.

how old is the monitor?it sounds like the inverter is shot on the monitor. shouldn't be an issue with the pc.

How the power is being distributed to the unit

reseat cables, try to get into bios on start up

Replacement AC adapters for that model are available here:http://www.ccl-la.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=48

observe the wattage of the monitor . it may become overload by power supply . observe wattage of UPS . combine the monitor and CPUs wattage . if not matching , then take higher wattage UPS .if you want to start on battery back up , then first on the CPU and then switch on the monitor after 10sec.

hi,
is the power indicator light at the front of your TV lights up during power on?if not then you are correct that should be an open fuse on the power board.You have to open the back cover of the monitor.To identify the power board,It is where the power cord is connected there is a fuse on the power board replace it with the same rating fuse are labeled with current rating such as 5A 250 volts.After you had replace the fuse and blows again after you test on do not replace it again check first the diodes and the regulators on the power board they might got shorted during the power surge.here is a picture of a diode and a diode testing




The white ring on the diode represents the cathode the other side is the anode there should no reverse reading during the test.if you read on a reverse bias diode is shorted..replace it the informationof the diodeis printed on the body of it use it as reference of replacement..
Good luck and let me know.

The electron cannon from inside the tube for the green has failed, the tube and the entire monitor with it is dead - time for a new one.

This has the same chipset as a Microtek Eyestar U2s and works on Windows Xp.

(XP DETECTS THE CAMERA - EXTRACT THIS FILE TO A FOLDER THEN USE CONTROL PANEL'S DEVICE MANAGER TO 'UPDATE DRIVER' AND POINT IT AT THAT FOLDER.)

If you are satisfied, please rate or/and leave a testimonial. Thanks!

I am sorry, but there is no windows xp driver for this model. You can try the compatibility mode in windows xp but I can't guarantee you that it will definitely work. If you wish to try, download the Windows 98 driver from HERE and follow THESE instructions to install. The instructions may be different but should be more or less similar. I hope you will be able to follow them. Let me know if you need further help.

Good Luck.
Thanks for using FixYa.

Are you getting format not support or out of range? Or something else?

It is acting like it is not getting the video signal from the PC, unless there are problem inside the monitor, you should try it with another PC. All the cables are good?
