Nokia Monitor 446XS Mysterious standby problem
I have this Nokia 446Xs monitor that has worked great since I got it,
but recently it started going into standby mode (i think) for no apparent reason. The screen will go black and the light will turn from green to orange, but even when you unplug the monitor cable from the computer, you don't get an error message saying that that there is no signal and the cable is not connected like normal. I have tried it on two other computers and it does the same. I have the power settings on always on, never shut off and it still turns off. I have searched all the monitor settings, looking for a powersave option, but have not found one. This is a big mystery to me so if anyone out there has any ideas, I'd be glead to try something else. Thanks |

The power supply is being shut down, because it is going in to protect mode.
There is something failing in the monitor, and thus the protection function is coming on. The monitor will have to be properly serviced. There may be fault occurring in the scan circuits, high voltage section, or the protection circuit itself. It is also possible that the picture tube has a fault, and thus triggering the protection function. There is also a possibility that something else in one of the video circuits is failing, and also triggering the protection circuits. If the monitor is more than about 4 to 5 years old, I would be looking to replace it, rather than to invest any money in to it. If it has a lot of hours on it, there is the possibility that there will be more faults in a short time. -- Jerry G. ===== wrote in message oups.com...
