2509m went dark

8 month old hp 2509m abruptly went dark. For the few seconds the screen can be seen, it is darker on top than on the bottom. If you look closely things can be seen on the screen but are very dark. What is odd that turning on and off the monitor seems to cause a normal display for a second or two before the light shuts off. When starting pc, screen comes on then shuts off. comes on again and shuts off. When turning on and off after start up the montior screen shows as normal then shuts off after a second. Hooking up monitor to another pc or laptop has same results. Unplug cable, message shows to check cable. If plugged in when PC powers down, will receive a monitor going to sleep message. Using Windows Vista and a vga cable. Have also replaced cable with a new one.
Any ideas?

Try a monitor reset.  Power off PC and monitor. Unplug the monitor and then hold down the monitor's power button for 30-60 seconds. The plug everything back in and give it a go.  There is also a factory reset function under the monitor's menu that you can try. If this doesn't fix the issue then contact HP support as the monitor has a 1 year warranty and ask for a replacement.
HP's support number is 800-474-6836 or 800-HPINVENT or online here.

  • Screen went dark/dim.  How do I fix it?

    2nd generation iTouch.
    Screen went dark/dim (can barely read it under a light).
    Any ideas on how to fix it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IMac went dark

    Last week my iMac went dark (the screen) but the Power light on front was still on. I tried rebooting and there was no start-up chime and it would not come up. I disconnected all peripherals and still no joy. I reset the PRAM...no joy. I tried starting up on another disk, including a TechTool repair disk...again no luck.
    I took it in to an authorized repair shop...and they found a bad RAM module. I have 2, 1Gig ram chips and one of them went bad. They removed it and everything is great...I do not even notice a slow down so far. But I did order a new one from Crucial ($24).
    Anyway, just thought I would share this since this issue might happen to someone else. This is a 2006 Intel iMac, 20". I had no problems at all, and my 3 year warranty was up last May (2009). I was so happy it wasn't something more.

    First try iMac SMC and PRAM reset, please do each of them 2x. If that does not work then try restarting in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. You did not mention the version of OS X running on the machine, if you are running Snow Leopard then install the Snow Leopard disc in the SuperDrive and restart, when you hear the start up tone hold down the Option key and start from the SL disc and run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions & Repair Disk.

    my mac book pro 17 inch , 2008 year , display went dark after rebooting from origianl disc, and the steps in "everthing Mac" book did not work, any ideas?

    The router might be bad or incompatible, but let's be optimistic.
    On System Preferences, go to Network/Advanced/PPP. Only two items should be checked: Connect Automatically When Needed and Disconnect when switching user accounts. Uncheck everything else. Now, click Okay on the end of the page. The next time you're online, you shouldn't be disconnected.
    If you still get disconnected like before, we might be dealing with a router issue - which can get rather complicated.

  • LED display went dark after iSight picture taken...

    Hi there,
    Strangest thing just happened. I took a photo from the iSight camera on my MBP and immediately after the flash, the LED screen went dark. I could still (barely) see what was on the screen, at least enough to shut it down, and then when I started it back up, it was fine. Has anyone else heard of this happening?
    Thanks!

    Yeah, that happened to me tonight too (MBP, about a month old). I rebooted, did again, and no issues. Quirk of somekind I guess.

    I have been attempting to wipe/erase the iphone 4S I recently purchased...for the past 20 hours....I went to Reset in Settings and clicked on "Erase All Content and Settings"....At that point the phone the screen went dark except for a white circular symbol revolving - indicating something should be happening....
    The instructions indicated that, depending on what needed to be erased, the process could take several hours. Even though the device had a Tom Tom application with all the maps of Europe etc (about 2GB) and there were several other apps on the device, it does not seem to me normal that the device would be still clearing into the next day - today!
    Can you please help!?

    Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
    Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until your phone turns off, then release.
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • My facebook app went dark and had the word "waiting" below it and I can not delete so I downloaded a new facebook app which is ok but the old app is still there but now the word "waiting" is gone and still cannot delete.

    My facebook app went dark and had the word "waiting" below it and I can not delete so I downloaded a new facebook app which is ok but the old app is still there but now the word "waiting" is gone and still cannot delete.

    This is my boilerplate respone for the "waiting apps" problem. Give these suggestions a try in order.
    1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first.
    4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
    6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    7. If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.
