My husband has a hp desktop computer, recently the on/off button has been blinking, and the monitor will not come on, we have checked all the connections, we have rebooted everything, still nothing. He had this same issue about one week ago and he shut everything down, including the internet connection box, shutting everything down in the house ( TV, and Internet ), let it set then rebooted and the monitor came back on, now its doing it again, and we have tried the same thing and the monitor still will not come on.
The monitor is a vs 17 e Flat Screen
Do you think it burned out, broken,? Any help would be much appreciated,
Simple test.
Disconnect the VGA cable from the tower.
Now try to turn on the monitor.
Do you get an on-screen display saying “No signal input” or similar message?
If so there is nothing wrong with the monitor.
It is unclear from your description whether the blinking on/off button is on the monitor or the tower. If it is on the tower then you may have a powersupply problem inside the tower.
