HP LP2065 Monitor suddenly goes black for a second occasionally

Hi all,
I have an HP LP2065 LCD monitor that I use with my 2 desktops that dual boot with Windows 7 and Vista . Lately the monitor will suddenly go black for less than a second. This happens randomly and not all the time, and only a few times each day. I have made sure that the driver is up to date on both computers. I have tried to troubleshoot the issue, but, nothing out of the ordinary is found.
What would cause the monitor to suddenly go black?
Any suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated.

Hello TinkRbelle,
I understand your monitor is going blank for a second or two at random intervals. As you have two operating systems getting the same issue I think we can rule out software. I would start by unplugging the power from the wall and from the monitor and holding the power button down on the monitor for 30 seconds or so. Plug it back in and see if the issue persists. If it does replace the power cord/adatper.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Screen goes black for 3 seconds in premiere CS5 every time I click

This is the first time I run Premiere CS5... On a fresh system install.
I suspect it's not playing well with my video card, a Radeon HD 4870 with 1GB Ram... Very standard stuff. I am running window 7 64 bit with 12 gb RAM, a week old build. I have all the updates and latest drivers, sigh. After Effects CS5 runs fine, Maya 2010 runs fine, Quicktime runs fine... What gives.
Here's what happens: I only need to launch Premiere, right away I get the problem. The screen goes black 3 seconds before the prompt to create a new project. Once I create the project, the application workspace comes in, but if I click any menu, drag a tool window (whatever they are called), the screen goes black 3 seconds then comes back. Its basically impossible to work...Huge drag.
Update:
The problem stopped after I went into the 'device settings' in preferences and set the device to 'none'....When I clicked on the device settings panel, my monitor went black, and there was a 'no signal' warning that came up, as if the DVI-D signal was dead. I was able to restore the signal by hitting ctrl-alt-del which switched me out of Premiere onto the desktop. Clearly, there is some issue with video. I switched back into Premiere and was able then to set to no devices.
I'm not doing any capture at the moment, but I can only pray that it's some sort of bug related to not having a device connected? I plan on bringing footage from a RED in the next month. I upgraded to CS5 specifically so that I could use more than 4 gigs of RAM and for the new features.

THank you for sending this.
I followed the benchmark directions, and I get an error at the final step
when I run the script:
line 99
Error: path not found
I tried for an hour different things, namely to re run the whole test
procedure, deleting the output files, etc... he script is looking for
something in the preview files that it is not finding. I think the procedure
was written for a previous version, because the metadata settings are
different in my version of AME, and I don't know how much that affects it.
Also, AME increments the file names when it renders them so that I did not
get the right output file names at the first render. I had to turn off
incrementing and manually name each clip before rendering. The vb scricpt
looks for these names, so I understand it is important. I can't figure out,
however, what the script is looking for in the preview folder and not
finding.
After spending almost two hours trying to troubleshoot the script, I gave
up. I can tell you tho that it takes about 6-7 minutes on my box to encode
all the videos.

Firefox will not launch. The screen goes black for several seconds, then returns to the launcher drawer.

Installed Fennec 4.0b2 on my Acer Liquid running Android 2.2. When I tried to launch application, the screen goes to black, with a grey bar at the top with the word "firefox" within. This screen persists for several seconds, before the returning to the previous screen.

Thanks for the report. This is a known bug that only affects Acer Liquid phones. We're working on it, but we don't have a fix ready yet. For details, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606194

Apple TV 2 Goes Black for a Second, Every 10 Seconds

My problem started when the power went out for about 20 minutes:
- When I turn my TV on, my screen looks fine and I can navigate around
- 10 seconds after I turn my TV on the screen will go to black for about a second then come back
- 10 seconds later, it will go black again for about a second then come back
- 10 seconds later... same thing, and so on, and so on
- I've tried different HDMI cables, but that doesn't fix the problem
- I've tried different resolutions, but that doesn't fix the problem
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)

Newish LED goes black (for split seconds)

Hello,
A few months ago I got a new LED 24" display for my early 2007 MacPro. Until a couple of days ago it was working fine with the Geffen adapter. Internet was via airport only. Then a few days ago--after getting aggravated for the 100 time with all the interference here-- I decided to connect via ethernet. (The cable runs from the airport to the MacPro). Since I did that the display has been acting weird. While online, from time to time the display would go all black for a split second. Nothing reloads when it comes back; so it doesn't seem to be a downloading issue. It seemed to be getting worse--and was happening while not online-- so I disconnected the ethernet cable, reset the network prefs, and am now back on wireless. But, the display is still doing its weird black out thing. It's getting me pretty worried (way way way too much money spent on computer problems in the last few months). Display problem? A conflict? Something with the power supply? Don't know why, but the ethernet switch seems to have triggered it. Only other issue I can think of is that I had to turn off the UPS for awhile while I was setting it all up.
Thanks for any information.
Jen

I'm having the same problem. 2.8 GHz Aluminum iMac, started last week to black screen for about 1 sec about every two days, duration slowly getter higher each time, just now blackscreen lasted about 6 secs. Mouse wiggle, keyboard press, doesn't bring it back. I've kept a log and I'm never using the same program when it happens. It's disappointing thinking it might be a hardware problem. Internal temps are running as follows in °F:
HD - 121
CPU - 104
Airport - 140
GPU - 128
GPU Heatsink - 124

Macbook screen goes black for a few seconds then reappears fine

The last two days my macbook screen has gone black for a few seconds then reappeared a few seconds later. Its as if it goes to sleep for a few seconds. The two times it has done this it has been charging. I have checked for hotspots but i have not activated any. I only bought the macbook air two months ago and have been really careful with it so i am confused.
any help? Please?
Thanks people.

Hello @bobbiy58,
I understand that your HP ENVY Recline 27-k150xt TouchSmart All-in-One CTO Desktop PC is going black for few seconds and coming back. I need to ask has this just started? Like since you connected your X-box? If so have you tried disconnecting the X-box to see if it stops?
Please re-post and let me know. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Mini-DVI port: monitor goes black for a moment if wiggle the adaptor

I have an Early 2009 mini 2.0GHz, which I'm using with the included Mini-DVI to DVI adaptor.
I've discover that if I press down on the adaptor plug just right, the monitor flickers to black for a moment, as if the adaptor were pulled out of the Mini DVI port.
I know: don't do that.
But it can also happen if the monitor cable gets tugged on just right (how I discovered it), and I'm concerned that the Mini DVI port may be loose on the motherboard, that it may get worse, that it may flicker intermittently without provocation, etc.
On the other hand, maybe this is just how the mini is built and I'll be wasting my time getting service.
So I'm hoping some of you can poke at your minis and see if it happens to you too.
Instructions For Proper Poking:
º Have everything plugged in with computer and monitor on
º Press down gently on the plug that is plugged into the mini's Mini DVI port
º Try a little wiggle, press from the end of the plug where the wire comes out to get a little leverage, etc.
º Try gently picking the mini up a few times, so that the monitor cable is hanging down from the mini
It only happens sometimes for me.
Thanks

So I just ran through the little test matrix you outlined in your first post with my Early 2009 mini. Result: no trouble whatsoever with intermittent connection. I would say what yours is doing isn't normal. Maybe some other people will try and report their results.
Mini DVI has been out there for a long time, albeit not on the Mac mini, but on other Apple notebook products. I have not heard that the connection is not "robust" ever. And I've been following the MacBook and MacBook Pro display forums for a couple years now.

Monitor goes black for a few seconds then recovers

This has been a great machine. Since 2014, the Monitor keeps going blank for 3/4 seconds then comes back. I have done my driver search and have installed the updated driver software but the problem persists. Please help. Bijou

Yeah, I'm using the HP2210m monitor to another computer with the same cable. The end result is the monitor seems to be working okay.
The other monitor I test to my computer is a different type of monitor and using a different cable. The end result is the other monitor stays up.
Basically, here's the situation
My computer (computer A)
My HP 2210m monitor (monitor A)
My DIVX cable (Cable A1), My VGA cable (Cable A2)
My Nvidia 560ti video card (Video Card A)
My Windows 7 Platform
Other computer (computer B)
Other NEC monitor (monitor B)
Other VGA cable (Cable B)
Other integrated video card (Video Card B)
Other Windows XP Platform
So here's the set ups:
1) Computer A + Monitor A + Cable A + Video Card A = Monitor starts blinking
2) Computer B + Monitor B + Cable B + Video Card B = Everything okay
3) Computer A + Monitor B + Cable B + Video Card A = Everything okay
4) Computer B + Monitor A + Cable A + Video Card B = Everything okay
I will try testing set up 1 (My computer) with Bios and Safe Mode. I'm not even sure if my computer came with an integrated video card since I had the computer built with another stand alone video card (an ATI) before I switched to an Nvidia. Just in case you were going to ask, I no longer have the ATI card in the machine and I used Guru Sweeper to completely remove all left over driver information from the ATI.

Eric Ross,
Hi,
I did as You indicated and found on the top left hot corner was set to "put display to sleep" and the lower left hot corner was set to " disable screen saver", Both Right side upper and lower hot corners were not set (they had a -)
So, I adjusted the two "set" hot corners to - to match the other two. No incidents since of any display going black on a intermittent basis or at all, Thank You Very Much for Your Reply and Insight! Will post as "Correct Answer"

U3415W, randomly goes black for like 2 seconds?

Just got this monitor and I'm having the exact same issue. Goes black for like 2 seconds randomly. It's differently on the monitor side of things, as I have another monitor connect through DP(daisy chain) and the same issue happens on that monitor as well. Both random, but sometimes at the same time with each. My third monitor which is connected through DVI has zero issues. I have tried the Dell without anything else connect, but getting the same issues.
Any ideas?

I am indeed, just a single mDP to DP was supplied. The issue was there with just that cable and the Dell monitor connected.
I have since turned off DP 1.2 on the monitor and the issue has gone away. Problem is that my graphics card supports DP 1.2, so that shouldn't have been causing any issues. (Sapphire R9 290 Vapor-X)
Dell support were support to contact be back again today so I can update them, but never got a call.

20"iMac Display Suddenly Goes Black

While I am using my iMac, occasionally suddenly goes black. If I hit a key (usually the space bar), it comes back as if I had put it to sleep.
What is happening? What should be done? What can I do?
Thanks for your help and information.

"Answered on another forum"
What a way to be helpful! I went through your posts and searched "display" and I did not find this mysterious answer you talk about.
I'm having the same issues on my Intel Core 2 Duo 20" iMac. if ANYONE could post a solution, I'd appreciate it.
The computer is still working correctly. It is not on sleep mode. I've press the power button and it goes to sleep, but then when I wake it up it repeats the black screen a couple of times until it finally settles on letting me work.
What is the point of user support forum if there are no moderators around to help people out? :/

Program monitor keeps going black in Premiere Pro CC

PC - Premiere Pro CC - AMD Fire Pro (13.101-130604a-158071E-ATI)
I'm working on a project and the program monitor keeps going black in Premiere Pro CC while I am working on the timeline. I've got like 28 GB of memory alocated to the program and just updated the latest driver for my video card. No clue why this keeps happening, but the only way I can get around it is to restart. When I go to close down the program freezes and I have to shut it down in the system preferences.
Under a crazy deadline if you can help? Thanks

here's my story. I'm also having this problem with video appearing in the Program monitor. The only thing I did differently is that yesterday when I was editing, I pulled the Program monitor out of the main Premiere interface and dragged it over to my second desktop monitor. that worked just dandy.
when I opened Premiere today, and opened an entierly different project, there was no video in the output window (and it was locked back into the main interface). I also can't select clips on the TL. The software locks up, and I have to restart.
I am able to create a new project and render the countdown leader. I was also able to import the project that wasn't displaying correctly, and have it work just like normal. So I think I'm back in business for now.
I'm deeply concerned though. I'm doing a webinar about Premiere very soon (with rehearsals tomorrow!). A failure like this looks bad for everybody. Also, I don't relish having to re-import all of my old projects in this way to get the basics working again. Any idea what went wrong? Right now I feel like I'd better never drag the program window to a second monitor to enjoy a larger program monitor while editing.
Premiere Pro CS6 - Mighty Kilt

I haven't installed any new software that I know of between the last time I edited with the Program on monitor #2 and right now.

My iMac is less than one year old. Without warning, the screen suddenly goes black. It used to happen occasionally, but is now happening all the time without warning. What is Apple doing to correct the problem?

My iMac is less than one year old. Without warning, the screen suddenly goes black. It used to happen ocasionally, but now it happens all the time. Numerous people have posted about this issue. Why hasn't Apple solved the issue. For what I paid my computer, I expected more from the product than I have gotten. I was a PC person for years and most of my associates told me that I needed to get a mac...I am starting to regret having taken their advice.

Sorry you're having this problem.
A few years ago we had a similar issue on one of our machines, it was an early MacBook. Ended up being a cracked circuit connection on the motherboard. Changes in temperature caused the crack to expand and contract resulting in a shut-down followed by an automatic reboot. Sometimes over-and-over. I understood from AppleCare at the time that those symptoms could have also been any number of things including a intermittent issue with a powersupply.
If you take it back to the Apple Store at some point, I would ask them to have it run some CPU intensive tasks that closely resemble what you are doing when the screen goes black. It took us several try's to find the problem. Calling AppleCare each time to discuss it and troubleshoot before making the trips to the Apple Store really moved things along. In fact, it wasn't until the Apple Store had cracked the case from the inside that things kicked into a higher gear and AppleCare phone support sent out a pre-paid FedX package to send it to a refurbishing facility. Never a problem since and I know the people who have the machine today.
PS Can identify with the trip to the Apple Store, our closest one is in Knoxville, 2hrs from us.
