xerox xa7-19i problems

[crilla]

Hi, Whenever I turn on my monitor it displays the computers output briefly (half a second) before going blank. I have tried the monitor on two other computers with the same result so it is definetaly not a computer problem. The power light on the front of the monitor stays green when the screen goes blank. Whenever I turn the power off and back on again the exact same thing happens.

Please help.

i don't think that site helps, my computer and laptop both detect the monitor and the light is on, it just it keeps going to a blank screen. when i change a setting it comes back on for like 2 secs and goes back off. please help

Does the computer in question work with another monitor, and did it ever work with this zerox?
Try it in safe mode

Hello!

Same problem (XA7-17i) , but after time, it will be worse.
I took apart the monitor, and i realized, that 3 capacitor at the power supply panel, are "hunched" up. Usually this means they are "broken".
Before this, a i had the same problem with a dvd-player, and when i repaced the broken capacitors, the player was working again.

So if you have some courage, (and soldering iron, and srewdriver) try to replace (with the same type(capacity, and max voltage)).

I didn't replaced them yet, but if i will have some time, i would try to fix, and post the result.

If the warranty isn't expired, take back to the shop, because warranty will be void, if you disassemble that.
