Hello,

 

As the subject states, I've had two occasions within the last 2 months where the monitor will not turn on.. I'll press the power button, but will receive nothing.. No blue light, nothing. I have to disconnect the power, wait 30 seconds, plug back in, and bam.. Powers right on.

 

Has anyone experienced this behavior before?

    I've experienced this with the XB321HK. In fact it happens pretty much every week. One of the worst purchases ever. Sometimes when it does turn on Windows will "lose connection to it" for a second and my second monitor which has all my icons set up like I want them will throw them to the XB321HK.

     

    On top of this it has artifacts on the screen every few hours (there's a thread about this on this forum).

     

    I refuse to return it to "be repaired" because many people have tried that and they just say that they can't find any problems in the few minutes they try the monitor. Would just waste my time and money even more.

     

    I will never buy anything acer in my entire life after this monitor...
