Need to fix monitor - Clutch - 06-22-2011
So I got this monitor from my gf's dad. He told me that it stopped working on him a while ago, and that if I wanted it I could have. I thought wth, so I took it home, plugged it into my laptop and Presto! It worked flawlessly. That was last night. I woke up this morning, turned it on, and saw this:

Is there any way to fix this?

Hmm probably not by yourself, try turning it off n' on a few times. Out of curiosity, what was the resolution?:3

I did that many times to no avail, it kinda fixes itself after a while and then goes back out??

It's obviously an old monitor. So it could just be old and overused and not work anymore. Maybe ask your local computer fixing store

That monitor looks extremely old. Just have them buy a new one. One that would take up less desk space.

It Looks like the Inverter or LCD is going bad.
Unplug it and let it cool off for about an Hour. Then try using it again.
I Have an NEC monitor at my work that has this issue. Its caused from leaving the monitor on for long periods of time. so when i am not using it i turn it off.

Try turning it off and back on?
If that does not work, unplug it and leave it for a couple of hours. Try to clean off the plug, and plug it back in.

Maybe a wiring/ Inside problem.
You'd be better off with a new one.
