S220HQL monitor screen cut out.

I bought an Acer S220HQL monitor and the display on it frequently, but briefly, cutting. Instances of this issue are erratic, but when it happens, it will "blink" black for a second or second half every 10 seconds or more. Sometimes I can spend hours without seeing any problems but. I have also observed that he seems to have an increased risk to occur or flashes more quickly when the navigation on certain websites like youtube or imageboards or some games. On rare occasions, I saw the message "input not supported", but for the most part the screen a few cuts to black for a brief moment, but can happen very often. (As I type this, my screen is sharp for a second once all the ~ 10-15 seconds)

Currently, my system is like:

Windows 8 Pro 64 bit OS

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti graphics controller

Acer S220HQL monitor connected via Dvi

The monitor is connectred to my computer, I built myself through a DVI cable. My previous monitor did not have these problems and this monitor seemed to work properly when connected to another computer (with the same cable.)

I tried many things are:

Update my drivers

The monitor on another computer (it worked fine)

Try my old monitor on this computer (also worked well for his advanced age)

Chat with live tech support chat from the Acer site, who told me to try the things that are above, but then responded that they couldn't help me, leaving me. Guessed it might be a compatibility problem.

Someone at - he a clue what could be causing this, and if I can do something? This problem extends to almost unusable at times embarrassing.

(Edit) Try to manually go through the program "run" through the windows 8 menu caused the display to be cut for as long as I stayed in the start menu, almost all the time I tried to start. Going to look at solutions related to windows 8, while waiting for a response.

Just tried something that seemed to work to seek randomly forums:

Shut down my computer

Disconnected my monitor completely (both ends)

Plugged my monitor to new first of all the part that goes into the monitor, then the power cord

Made sure to switch my monitor BEFORE my computer

I immediately noticed the screen is a bit brighter and he did not cut once once in a few hours, although I'll have to keep observation for a few days to make sure that it is really the solution.

  • cut out a section in the middle of video pictures

    I have a video clip in Photos and you want to cut out a section in the middle. I can cut from each end, but do not know how to take a section in the Middle

    This is not possible with Photos - you need to like the latest version of iMovie video editing software or other

  • Portege M400: Cannot retrieve screen cut-off

    Sometimes after the screen time-out turned off I can not retrieve the situation, which occurs more frequently in tablet mode. Any key / button I press on the screen does not recover, but I can see the disk activity light that the camera seems to function normally. The only resolution at this point that I found is a reset of power coercive.

    Someone at - it suggestions?

    It of not easy to say what's wrong or why it occurs.
    To me, this looks like a software problem. Perhaps that some registry entries are corrupted or system files are damaged.
    In any case, try to use applications to clean the registry. I use the CCleaner. It s a freeware tool and you can find it on most of the download sites. Google a bit.

    Since the installation of El Capitan, my streaming to my Audioengine DAC D2 cut after 12 minutes (the default duration of sleep). It will restart by pressing the space bar. When I change the duration of sleep, the cut outs are becoming more frequent and intermittent. Help?

    I checked the wifi and changed frequency (new modem, frequency change made no difference). The Board battery seems fine - all updates well. My computer is an iMac (2011), 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, with a new AMD Radeon graphics card. I recently installed a State strong 1 TB SATA drive and fitted with a LaCie Porsche 4 to USB for backup and a 4TB disk storage RAID LaCie drive.

    I'm frustrated, having to come in my computer since my living room every 12 minutes to continue to listen to Spotify on my stereo system.

    My guess is there a bug in the software of sleep in El Capitan, which disrupts his (I've tried different USB ports connect the Audioengine sender and same thing).

    Should I go back to Yosemite?

  • Monitor screen Direction - change from vertical to horizontal

    original title: monitor screen Direction

    How can I change the screen from vertical to horizontal?

    Hi Aspen77,

    Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum.

    Let us know the operating system and the video card installed on your computer.

    However, you can try to resolve the problem by following the steps below.

    -Simultaneously press the keys on your keyboard to change the desired setting.
    CTRL + ALT + UP > Normal mode
    CTRL + ALT + RIGHT > turn 270
    CTRL + ALT + LEFT > rotate 90
    CTRL + ALT + DOWN > turn 180

    -Right click on my computer > manage > Device Manager > expand the display adapter option > right click on the map to display > click on uninstall > restart the computer if you are prompted to, or click on hardware changes. It would load the default settings of your display card.

    -Check the advance of your display card properties make sure buttons that allows you to rotate the screen are set by default.

    I hope this information helps.

    Thank you

  • HP Pavilion dv6-3230us, windows 7 64 bit. Colors of the incorrect monitor screen.

    the colors on my HP Pavlion dv6-3230us laptop monitor screen are wrong at the start but will correct on its own after a while (an hour or more).  Initially using the brightness button several times would correct the problem, but now will not fix the problem.  Issue started two days ago and seems to take more time so that it can be corrected with the commissioning upward.  Once he corrects himself he will generally be ok until the computer is closed or off.  This problem is constant regardless of what is displayed on the screen (office, internet, photos, etc.).  Any help would be appreciated.

    Shut down your computer and press the ESC key many times.

    Have shown: Start Menu.

    Click on the F10 key.

    In this screen, the issue showed?

    If do not move the screen back and front.

    Any problem?

    If this ocorred in this screen problem is failure in your flat cable or the display. You have to fix it.
