Greetings,

I'm having a problem and I think it's my monitor (details are in place).

From a cold boot, I turn on my monitor and the display goes black after 2-4sec. I know its not going into Sleep mode as the light behind my power button flashes in Sleep mode and it's not doing that here.

After turning my monitor off, it does the same thing again a few times before it stays on. After that its ok for however long I use it, even in games and whatnot.

My monitor is over 5yrs old so I'm guessing it's just that time, but wanted to ask here first.

Thanks in advance....

I agree, it might be failing, but you could try installing your driver for it, reboot with monitor on and see if Windows can grab a better driver.
Try the monitor on a different PC if possible. If you get the same issue I would say that would fault the monitor.

Issue happened on another system so I went to Fry's and found a nice 1080p Asus monitor for $160.

Specs updated and thread marked as solved.

Thanks for the help!
