Acer lcd 22″ monitor keeps turning off

Ok, i bought this monitor, and after a few minutes of playing or web browsing, it shuts off. Now, i know what your gonna say, buy a new one, that’s the problem it’s a replacement of a new one, which i thought had to be RMA’d. Ok the monitor shuts off, but not completely, the power switch stays on, and once i press the power switch it returns. This happens ramdomly, i have a 19″ monitor(not wide screen), and it never happened on that one. Please any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Answer #1
Send it for repair or replacement…Not much you can do…
Answer #2
It is a replacement, just bought this two weeks ago. And they both did the same thing, and my non-widescreen never gave me that problem.
Answer #3
No idea…All what I can tell you is…I had the same problem with one of my monitors..And I’m fairly competent in repairs..But I just dumped it and got a new one…
Answer #4
i have the same problem
but my monitor is cmv ct-712A i dont know how many inch..
i think the problem is when u open firefox with winamp or only firefox becasue i never had this when i had internet explorer also my graphic card is nvidia geforce 5200 fx
because the monitor turns to black but u can see something if u really look good into it u see icons but all black
and then u need to turn off it and turn on and it backs..
Answer #5
It’s nothing to do with firefox or winamp…That looks like a hardware fault…
Answer #6
Thanks for replies, i believe i found the problem, the highest resolution for my monitor is 1440×900, so what i did was create my own res. to 1400×900, and so far it hasn’t shut off on me(fingers crossed), hope that helps you too . I think i’ll wait awhile, before i get too happy,lol.
Answer #7
my resolution is 1024X768
and btw it happens only in windows because i have ubuntu dual booted and it never happend there.
