Have had it for 1 year and 2 months. Never had a problem with it until 2 days ago. Monitor stays on, just can't see picture, and I can't shut it off. Did what you said about like rebooting it, and it wont work, Maybe my monitor is just fried after a year? I have a Veiwsonic VS11349 with a card 8000gt. Have had it for 1 year and 2 months.

I would connect the DVI cable to the mini-DVI adapter but nothing would happen. Finally I unplugged the power to the monitor and connected the DVI to the macbook again and the display was detected, even with no power to it. Once I connected the power all was well again. thanks!

Since this problem seems to happen regularly on several models of Viewsonic monitors for 3 years, I hope that the information is rising to the manufacturer …

Thanks, Ryan! I found that unplugging the power cord of my VA2012wb, with DVI cable in place, then rebooting my computer, then re-plugging the monitor power cord, and then turning on the monitor did the trick.

Then I pulled the analogue cable completely off, and connected only the digital cable. I turned of the monitor. When I booted off the CD I noticed the monitor turned itself on. I pulled the CD, booted off the hard drive and was able to see the graphical boot. I am limited to 640 x 480, but that is an improvement over _no signal_. Thanks!

Strong Wed, 24 Jun 2009 20:59:03 +0000 http://www.munky.net/design/participatory-design-for-third-world-wheelchairs/#comment-17316 I saw Ralph Hotchkiss on Frontline last night. Great work! Any chance of you turning your eyes to benefit local wheelchair users? I'm a quad. I can drive my chair with my right wrist. Yesterday I was tossed half out of my chair while on a slighty bumpy city street. The chair is motorized. It needs shock absorbers, a seat that cradles the body, better metal that won't allow leg peddles to crumple upon minor pressure, etc., etc, & so forth! My wheelchair OT explained that the deteriorating quality of chairs available in the U.S.recently is due to the fact that they are being made "offshore". Anyway, they're crap! Any suggestions welcome. Thanks! I saw Ralph Hotchkiss on Frontline last night. Great work!

Can anyone walk me through again? I am turing computer on - getting the no signal digital note (additionally - no sound) from here I am disconnecting the dvi and dsub from the monitor end, and reconnecting. I turn off the computer by holding the power button down (since no screen can not shut down correctly) then i disconnect the dsub from the monitor end. unplug the power from the monitor end. wait - plug back in, and trun computer back on...at what point to reconnect the dsub? or have ai already messed up a step. this is only a year old computer and videocard and monitor. before it went to no signal message on black screen, i noticed the screen would shut down after being in standby mode for more than 12 hours or so, and i would have to reboot the computer to get it going up again, but now nothing works. i am at my wits end, any help is so appreciated :) this is working so WELL for everyone, and not for me – I think I may be doing something wrong, or in the wrong order – I am completely computer ignorant.
