Question:

Do I have a dying LCD monitor?

I have a 20.1 Sceptre.Scenario:1. Turn on computer2. Turn on monitor3. Monitor stays black but the power light flashes on and off4. Computer boots up normally5. After 20mins-1hour, monitor finally displays desktop and everything works again6. Turn off computer and monitor. Go to sleep.7. Wake up, turn on monitor and computer.8. Repeat steps 1-6. Add 30 mins to step 5 per day. (Up until now it takes a few hours for it to work. Right now it won't even turn on)*I have plugged my monitor into another computer that has no GFX only to get the same result.

Answer:

Hi there, Very good description of the problem. It sounds like it is time for a new monitor. A good time to get a 23-24 inch LCD monitoryou will love the new monitor. The monitorat link below for $220- has all three inputs plus a built-in HDTV tuner so you can watch TV on it also (just connect cable box, etc plus your computer) Also has good name and specs. Hope this helps, Al
