i have an hp pavilion a520n with a f1703 flat screen monitor. i have been reading things about the blackout screen but i believe i have a different problem. i went to use my computer and the monitor was off. i checked all conections. by unpluging the cord and putting it back in, the monitor light would turn on for about a half of a second and then just turn off. the screen or nothing of that sort would turn on. someone tested the ac adapter for me and put on a load and said it was working properly. they also checked the switch for the monitor and that was working too. any sugestions of why the light would be turning on briefly. is the monitor reading some sort of error. the monitor just passed its warranty and i dont want to spend a couple hundred for a new one. thanks http://computershopper.com.com/5200-7590_7-0.html?forumID=67&threadID=-1&messageID=-1&start=-1#
