Monitor power button stuck or broken

1908FP 2407WFP and probably many other models

I have 7 or more Dell monitors and just got my first broken power button today. After disassemble and see the very fragile plastic piece, I am happy that I regularly let sleep instead of using the button. The 10-cent plastic piece is made very thin and flexible, and the actual switch is not directly behind the button (they are all other buttons), but moved to the side to make room for a LED. For this, the plastic, the button bow severely whenever it's pressed. In my case, the button has lasted a few years before the tabs broke the key at both ends showing how fragile, it had become. Firm pressure could probably break it even when new. Because the tabs are so small, the only realistic "repair" is to remove the broken button, use something to push the switch and allow him to sleep. The button band could easily be replaced if only someone could sell them.

  • POWER BUTTON LOCKOUT

    My new HP Pavilion Elite (m9525f) desktop PC, quadcore and my new HP Monitor (w2338h) don't seem to work well together and just purchased April 18/09.   When I want to close my monitor, connected to my turn I push the high power button on my screen and it will not turn off and I get this message "hold on power button?   I'm operating Vista Home Premium(64 bit) entered previously connected.  I called HP support and said the first time to turn my turn and while holding down the power button on my screen, I also had to disconnect the power supply for a minute (while holding down the power button) and then plug my monitor back in and turn on my Tower.  It did not work.  Then they told me to go in my monitor options and click default settings to rest and it does not work. Then I was instructed to go into my device manager, display seetings and uninstall my Navidia 9300GE driver, then reboot my system and it would be re - install, but this does not work either.  Finally, it told me to do a restore of the entire system to the factory settings and guess what?  He has not yet healed my monitor power button problem.  Please help or let me know if there is a solution that I'll remember the HP Support and give them a piece of my mind.  Thank you.

    Hello.  I finally found a solution to my problem of a HP Tech named Dallas who is in the State of Oregon. The solution has been to hold down the power button on my monitor with power, for about 25-30 seconds and finally my monitor off. I can now turn off and then on my screen without any problems. Thanks to Dallas from HP.

  • my ipod 5 does not light, I am of the view the home and power button down for 10 to 30 seconds, but my home button is stuck or at least does not, what should I do?

    so I have my button home broken for some time, not only does not respond as broken in the iPod so I couldn't press it or anything. It is only today that my iPod will not turn back. I normally would just hold the home button and the power button for some and things would turn out right away but now I can't use my home button so I'm stuck without options. I left that he plugged for a while but still nothing. I tried to clean the home button. So what should I? get a new home button or just get an upgrade anyway.

    You could bring to the Apple store and let them to evaluate it. If an upgrade is financially feasible, I would recommend that you're not just fixing the home button will help. Also note that if you do any repairs on the iPod it will void your warranty (if you have one.)

    maheisel

    Four "beeps", could indicate a memory problem, if you are comfortable working inside the computer, try to open the case, remove and reinstall all memory modules and see if that makes a difference.

    If you not comfortable working with the removal and the reinstallation of the components, then I suggest that you take the Inspiron 530 to a repairman.

    Is the power button LED, blue constant or flashing blue?

    Every change made to the 530 recently?

  • iMac G3 stuck power button / stop

    So, I bought a G3 iMac on eBay. It's a PowerMac 2.2 If you need this information.  A few months later, the power button is stuck in. So I have to keep hitting the power button to get it to turn on. And if I shake the computer, you can turn off. All solutions on how to get this button to be able to take off. The computer was probably not the best handle I see a few pieces chipped through the case and the door for the RAM has tape on it since there is nothing to hold the bottom.

    The initially supplied with your iMac keyboard has a power button.  If you use this keyboard, can you use this button to power instead?
