Hi guys,
I use my screen a long time and today suddently it just randomly started flickering black. When I shine a light on it i can still see the desktop through the black flickering. I tried swopping cables from VGA to DVI to HDMI all is the same. I disconnected the video cable and keep the screen on and again after awhile the "no signal message" also started flickering. But when i turn of the screen and back on again it good for 2 or 3 min and then the flickering start up again. I have a Samsung SA350 23" LED
Model no: S23A350B
My GPU : MSI GTX 760
PSU : Coolermaster 625W


can you guys please help me figure out whats wrong and can i fix it myself? if not will it cost to much to fix instead of just buying a new monitor or what. If you need more information ill happily give you what u need. I think it can maybe be the backlight but i dont have much knowledge of display hardware cause im a network engi.
Thanks

Try using another monitor from your friends. If the flickering continues on your friends monitor, than it is GPU problem, if there is no flickering, than it is monitor problem. About solving the monitor problem, better contact the manufacturer or the retailer if you still have the warranty.
