Re: Viewsonic 2235 switched off by itself

Hello again,

First, Your question : It is possible that plugging in the headphone/mic shorted out something?
I don t know, i dont dare to plug the sets in another computer. So I have to buy a new set and try again on the 'problem' computer ?


Second, I m trying to add some pics, and hope they re clear enough.
I labeled all what i can. Sorry for the rest.

Thank you...

Re: Viewsonic 2235 switched off by itself

Hello,
1st question, why can t I see/read my question in the forum 'Troubleshooting computer displays' ?
I can see it by googling : 'viewsonic 2235 switched off by itself'. So I can read only my message.

Thank you

Re: Viewsonic 2235 switched off by itself

Thank you for replying so fast.
Sorry, I did not have time to take pictures yet or try about the contrast as the monitor is half unmounted.

1) Are you the original owner of this monitor?

Yes I am

2) How old is it? The manufacturer date is on the back.

Bought it since October 2008. I thought the warranty was 1 year but in fact it is 3. Now the monitor is unmounted and I have changed some caps so I think I can forget the warranty !

3) How many hours...

Hi everyone,

I have a video problem with my Viewsonic 2235 and hope that some of you who have faced the same problem can help me to solve it.

My monitor is working, no display problem. The problem is that after 30 minutes, it is switched off by itself, it is totally off, it does not stay on standby, the PC is still working. I have to wait for 10 minutes and switch the monitor on again. It's working again but for a shorter time. After a few times, the monitor is switched off by itself right after being switched on. Also it looks to be heat up quite fast.

Hi, everyone.

Also just looking to solve my monitor problem and found this website. It impresses me how some people are nice and help each other in these forums. At least something nice in this modern lifestyle.

I am from France, housewife with 4 children, I have more experience in IT than in electronic. A few month ago, thanks to these forums, I repaired myself a Viewsonic monitor by omly replacing 2 bad caps. But this time I did not have same chance and can not get my second monitor fixed....
