Hi all,

This is my first post here so would like to say hello to everyone

.

Ok to kick this off i have a very frustrating monitor problem. What happens is if for some reason when my pc gets shut down, or restarted my monitor does not seem to have a display and comes up with "no signal". Sometimes when i turn my pc off at the power button, and also my monitor and try to re-boot both my monitor may work at times but only like 1 out of 5 attempts at doing so. As you can imagine its becoming very frustrating. We run an at home business so we need/use the internet as much as possible so i guess i am here looking for a cheaper fix, rather then go out and buy a new monitor. This monitor is not under warranty anymore, and is about 2 years old. Any help/suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Test the monitor on another PC and see if the problem follows. If it does, then your only option is to live with it or replace it.
