Until a few week ago my Acer monitor was working fine.  When I turn on, or wake up my computer it took longer to wake up the monitor and now the monitor dosn't come on and the light under the monitor only blinks green and that's it.

What can I try?  Other monitors I have work with no problem, so I now it isn't the vedio card.

    Brucedro,

     

    I am sorry to hear that your monitor has stopped working. It sounds like you have done a good amount of troubleshooting your self. Have you tried a power drain? If not, unplug the monitor from the computer and outlet, then press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. After reconnect the monitor and try powering it up again.

     

    If the problem persists, it sounds like there is something wrong with a hardware component. If you are in warranty, please contact technical support in your region.

    I tried draining the power as recommended.  Head it unplugged for over a week. plugged it in without the computer and the green light still blinks.  Then I hocked it up to another computer that worked with another monitor and still does the same thing.  I now now I will never buy a Acer product again.  Never head this problem with other Monitors from other company's.   When calling the company they won't answer my questions on how to repair the product.  They told me you are out of warranty we can't help so go buy a new one.
