HP Monitor L1710 -- power light flashes green when I turn on PC, screen flickers black w/ no image

Hello,
Last night I turned off my PC w/ a HP Monitor L1710, which I did not turn off. When I turned on my PC this morning the screen does not "turn on" -- the green light next to the power button flashes on and off, and the screen flickers between shades of black, like it's trying to turn of. This PC usually is not turned off at night (this is a work PC, and I just started to working at this desk (almost) never turned the PC off at night, so I wonder if it has something to do with that. I've turned the PC on and off multiple times, unplugged the power cable (for the monitor) and cable that runs from the monitor to the PC. I believe the PC is on (cd drive opens and closes, recognizes my phone when I plug it in to charge), so I don't think that is the problem. 
I see a lot online that it may be stuck in power saving mode. 
Any thoughts? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated
Tom D. 

Hello @tom_degennaro,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that your monitor is not coming on when you turn on your PC. I am setting out some steps for you to try for you to try below:
Step 1. Unplug the power cord from the monitor and the wall outlet
Step 2. Hold the power button down for one minute
Step 3. Plug the power cord back into the monitor and then the wall outlet (not a powerbar or surge protector)
Step 4. Press the Menu button on the front of the monitor
Step 5. Navigate to the Factory Reset option and select it.
If the issue still persists after the above steps try the monitor on another computer. If the monitor still does not work at that point then, it appears to be a physical issue and I think it would be best if you contact HP Technical Support for repair options.
If however the monitor works on another computer you have an issue with the computer it was originally on. If the computer is an HP computer I would be happy to assist you with, but first I would encourage you to post your product number for the computer. I am linking an HP Support document below that will show you how to find your product number. As well, if you could indicate which operating system you are using. And whether your operating system is 32-bit or 64-bit as with this and the product number I can provide you with accurate information.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Which Windows operating system am I running?
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
Please re-post with the requested information and I would be happy to provide you with assistance. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Tecra A10-S3501 Power Light Flashes, Fan Runs Full Speed.

    Greets all,
    I have a customers Tecra in the shop, and after getting a good description of what was happening at the tme of failure, I still cannot seem to figure it out. She was watching a flash video when it froze. Upon reboot, it will not init the LCD, it does seem to at least partially POST, cd drive spins up, and all LCDs blink like normal. Still no LCD init, and the power light blinks green, no pattern, it is not a binary post led code. Fan spins up directly to full speed and stays there for the duration. I counted 20 one second blinks with fan at full speed, before powering down. Any ideas? Customer has no warranty, so would be nice to fix it for her. :-) Thank you, and have a great day.

    Hey,
    Can you see a picture on external monitor? If yes it might be only a FL inverter issue of internal display. This is not an expensive part so this would be easy to fix the problem.
    Anyway, if you cant see a picture on external monitor, I think its related to another part, maybe mainboard or something else. This should be checked from an authorized service provider
    By the way: If you have connected an external monitor, use FN+F5 key combination to switch between them

  • Airport Extreme light flashes green, amber, then goes out

    When I pug in the Airport Extreme the led status light flashes green, amber, then goes out. Matters not if I press the reset button, unplug and press, or anything else.
    So it seems I have power, but it will not work, and the light goes out.
    Any Ideas?

    How old is it?
    See if you have a 12v power supply of around 2A around.. and try that.. sometimes the power supply goes.. but often it is the internal supplies.. in which case you cannot really do anything but replace it.
    If it is less than 3years old and you have apple care on a computer Apple might replace it.. if you match all the requirements. outside 3years.. buy a new one.

    Click here for information; if the computer beeps three or fewer times, remove and reinsert the computer's RAM. If it beeps four or more times, it needs to be repaired. If it's a G5, it will ignore RAM modules that aren't part of a matching pair.

    It also broke your cap lock. You need to get your keyboard fixed as it makes reading your posts extremely difficult and is considered shouting which is rude

    Hi I have been having a problem with Bridge in CS4 recently. So uninstalled CS4 and Lightroom 4.4 and reinstalled them on my Desktop PC. When I turned on Bridge through CS4, My thumb nail images disappeared and a thumb nail icon with CR2 appeared. Now some of my images have disappeared from Light room 4.4, but I can find them in CS4 and Bridge now shows some thumb nails as images and some as an icon with CR2. I have spent two weeks going through preferences etc. to find how to resolve my problem. Please can you Help? Meany thanks in advance
      Derek Randall

    I don't use LR and rarely use the bridge so I can not answers about thumbnails in them,  However thumbnails in windows file explorer and windows dialog for CS2 files will only show if you have installed codec into windows that will produce them. Windows does not do CR2 thumbnails on its own. I use FastPictureViewer Codec package for RAW File and PSD files thunbmail support.

  • When I click on video it is stuck on one tv show, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't access any other video that I downloaded from iTunes onto my iPad 2. How do I troubleshoot?

    The video on my iPad 2 is frozen on a tv show, although it will play the tv show until the end. At the end, when I click 'done' the screen goes black so I can't see the other movies that I've downloaded. I've shut down a few times but it reverts to the same thing. How can I re-set the video feature or do what is necessary to get it working again?

    Have you tried resetting the iPad:
    Reset iPad:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?

    I got my ipad2 replaced yesterday. And this new ipad started giving me problem by crashing aps. Then I restored the ipad twice but the problem was still there. I called apple and they fixed it by doing Reset All Settings. But now I have this weird problem. When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?

    There is no way for anyone here to know if your replacement iPad is a refurbished unit.  Per Apple's replacement policy, replacements can be refurbished units.  If you feel the unit is not working correctly, take it back, let them check it out and if found defective, they will replace that unit.

  • Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver?   The same images look fine in Preview and Finder.  Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

    Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver?   The same images look fine in Preview and Finder.  Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

    The desktop image is fine, taken from the exact same pool of jpg photos.  However, as soon as the slide show screen saver comes on, the images are scrambled.  What is it about the apple screen saver algorithm that scrambles the pics?

    Something is very wrong with your system, you need to try repairing the hard drive if possible.  See:

    If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to reinstall the system.

  • My iphone died and when I plugged it back in to charge it when it powered on the screen remained black.  I can hear when I receive a text and a hear siri.  I have tried holding down the sleep and home button

    My iphone died & I plugged it back in to charge when it powered on the screen remained black.  I can hear when I receive a text and siri.  I have tried holding down the sleep and home button and restoring in itunes neither worked.  The screen on the phone is cracked but has been working fine until now.  Please help!!!

    Here's how to perform the restore:
    HT1414
    If you can actually get to restore, maybe (I estimate a 0.01% chance) you'll be able to do a backup before the restore.  Actually, from the symptoms you describe, I suspect a restore won't work either and you'll need to do a recovery.
    Just in case, if you need to recover (restore fails), here's how.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once.

  • SG 200-08 All LED lights flashing green after power failure

    Thinking back, about a month ago I updated the firmware (sorry I can't check version at the moment). The switch has been working fine since then. Today I needed to move some power cables and the switch lost power. Now ALL of the LED lights are flashing green and I can't access the switch. I've tried setting a static IP on my laptop to 192.168.1.20, mask 255.255.255.0, and accessing the switch on 192.168.1.254, but there's no response. I've tried holding in the reset button for at least 30 seconds while the switch is powered on, AND while powering it on. None of that has worked. Also when I first power it on, the system LED flashes orange very quickly for a second or so, then all of the LEDS start flashing green.
    What am I missing?

    Its been a few months, so I don't remember the details, but I think it was a combination of using the reset button and then opening a browser to the default IP address. If you look at the screenshot I posted it has the IP address I used. I downloaded the firmware again and the webpage in the screenshot is where the router is asking me for the location of the firmware I downloaded. After it finished reloading the firmware it worked again.
