View Sonic VX900 problems
 

Hey,

I got a new monitor from a friend...

Its a View Sonic VX900 19" flatscreen monitor.

Basically the problem is that when I plug in the monitor it would give me an image for about 1 second then tuen back to a complete blank screen.

Each time i turn the power on and off the screen will show an image for about 1 sec then shut off again...

Anyone knows what to do or can assist me somehow?

Does this happen even in boot-up?
What do you have for a graphics card?
What OS are you running?
Did this happen to your friend too? Or was it completely brand new?
Is it flatscreen CRT or is it a flatpanel LCD?

Did your friend say it was broken in any way?

No my friend said that the screen works fine in his computer (unless he's bullshitting me).

I don't see anything in boot up...I only see an image when I turn the monitor off then back on
I'm running windows XP SP2
There is an ATI video card, nothing all that great
Also its a LCD
