    monitor problem
    « on: February 23, 2008, 05:50:09 AM »
    Hi All

    Having problems with a dell flat panel monitor, It works fine for about 1 hour then just goes off, if you switch it back on it only lasts about 10 minutes then goes off again. It’s just like someone pulled the plug, have tried on a known good P.C same thing happens.

    Is it worth repairing?

    Is this newly bought?

      Yes and no, I got it when I bought a new system a couple of years ago (out of warranty now) but used my old monitor because it was bigger.

      So it has never been used although it is a couple of years old.
      Just wondered if it is likely to be a simple problem, easily fixed, or a bin job.

      Thanks
