hello,
i have a soyo 24" lcd monitor that continually blacks out a minute or two after start up. The monitor has been doing this since it was just a few months old and has been doing it for nearly 3 years now. It will come back on its own after a couple minute wait or immediately if i unplug it and plug it back in. After doing this from 1 to 4 times it will stay on for an unlimited amount of time unless i power down or let it go into sleep mode. Any suggestions on a fix, or should i just continue to deal with it until i replace it?
