wutske 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2006 I have problem with my monitor, a Sony E-220 17" CRT. It won't turn on anymore, it doesn't matter how many times I press the on and off button or connect/disconnect the power cable.This screen (a good one imho) has had some 'power' problems before. Sometimes it wouldn't wake up from sleep mode or it would get stuck somewhere in between sleep mode and on mode, turning it off and on again (cft. The IT Crew ) usualy solved this.3 days ago, the problem started, I had switched it of (using the power button) and a while later I wanted to turn it on, but it didn't do so, the LED remaind out and no demag-noise. I've turned it off and on a few time, pulled the power cord out and put it back in and after some more trying, it suddenly worked again after leaving it 10secs on.Yesterday, same story, except it didn't turned on . So far, my dad has check the fuse and the power switch (because the button is missing, I have to use a screw driver to switch it on and off )and probably some more things. My guess is that there's something wrong with the high voltage part, because windows still recognizes the monitor (when I set it up as a secondary monitor, windows detects it and is able to enable the second output, wich isn't possible if no monitor is connected).So, idea's ?P.s: no 'buy a new one' or 'buy a flatscreen', I just want it fixed.

I hope I can get him to replace it this weekend so I can work at a descent resolution again, because that works a lot better when working for school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
