I finally got around to plugging this in and the display "jumps" and shows color lines flashing through it occasionally, If I use the monitor plugged directly to a built in port it works fine so it is not the cable/monitor. Anyone else seen this issue?

Sorry this answer doesn't help with your question.. but at least you can see something. It showed nothing for me on my ThinkPad.

sorry, it has been so long since we hooked it up i forgot. There were 2 hot wires going to the monitor, one did not go on automatically so i used the other. The unit works well, after several months.

I would check that all connections are not loose. It sounds like you have the power usb cable plugged in but check it's connection as well. I'd suggest contacting the company if you have further problems. My monitor has worked flawless since installing the adapter. Sorry to hear you are having issues.

That hasn't happened to me, but I assume it's either something wrong with the display unit, which has all the circuitry behind it, or there is something wrong with the wiring that's going out to the external sensor. Check to see the wiring and connections at both ends are good to rule out the easy fix of just reconnecting everything well.

I am sorry that I can not be of help, I have not noticed the flickering with mine in my setup. As others have suggested it may be defective and you may want to return it or exchange it.

I have had the monitor for 2 weeks, but it is used constantly. I frequently attach or separate it from different PCs, and it has been both shut off completely--or simply allowed to hibernate. I have not experienced this problem of the audio failing to switch on with the monitor. I suspect that the monitor is choosing the wrong audio input and perhaps decoupling it from your video signal. Are you using HDMI (for both video & audio), or do you have a separate audio signal input? My guess is that if you use VGA, you should avoid leaving any source plugged into the HDMI port. Likewise, if you are using HDMI, use a newer cable that supports audio and disconnect the audio input at the back of the monitor. Does any of this make sense? Did it help?

I didn't have that problem but there was a glitch in mine which made my screen flicker. I believe that it's a manufacturing issue. If you can't get it to work, is send it back and ask for another one

The one I originally bought from east coast LCD didn't work correctly on my HOUSE so I asked them for an exchange as I knew that my display cable inside was not damaged (plugging in the old shattered one still displayed partial desktop and colors). East Coast lcd didn't even provide replacement, just refunded my money and I had to cough up additional shipping for the return.I then bought one from a different seller and it worked perfectly. Hope this helps as I'm just sharing my experience with them as I fell for the lower price as well. I then ended up buying one for around $49 & shipping The one I originally bought from east coast LCD didn't work correctly on my HOUSE so I asked them for an exchange as I knew that my display cable inside was not damaged (plugging in the old shattered one still displayed partial desktop and colors).

Thats weird, i'm not sure, I have had a few different issues that might be cable related... just flickering out and back in. Also sometimes after being on too long... it will cut out then I have to leave it off for a bit and turn it back on maybe overheating. I have not seen this issue yet, I would change the cable, if not that probably RMA.

Are you using the cable that came with the monitor? I had some issues getting mine setup, but it was related to the cable I was using. You may want to try using a different cable rated for the high resolution that the monitor offers.

We had the same issue, first you need to plug the power cord into just the monitor then plug into the DVD player monitor. It is backorders from ones we have had in the past.

I would write amazon directly and they are good about working things out. I have used my monitor for many months and have no complaints. Could be the item itself is faulty. Also try notifying the company who made it.

I like this monitor, however I had problems with the first one I ordered. I ordered a new one and at times the screen will display broken images. Almost like the Monitor has damage. Not sure how else to describe it to you. I have to turn it off and turn it back on to get it to work properly. As for the extra equipment, we never purchased anything other than what came with the monitor. Good luck! and Congratulations!!

Yes mine did. It plugged right in but the dvi-d cable was slightly shorter due to the required bandwidth. please notice the video card required for this monitor. It is a direct monitor that bypasses the internal conversion electronics you get with a standard monitor.This is fantastic for performance gaming. But you cant run it from a standard laptop.

I have not had that problem, mine has worked fine but is used for more of a TV, look in the settings, there may be a power setting in the menu on the monitor, otherwise turn off the computer and monitor and make sure the DVI connection is good on both sides and try again.Try a different DVI cable as well, as the other commenter recommended.

We have not had that issue. But, sounds like you have had it happen on a few different systems which seems really odd. I was thinking it was the A/V cables are not in properly or the tv needs to be turned to a different input. Hope that helps!

There might be something wrong with the monitor, on mine, I have two of them. I see the post on the main monitor using the HDMI cable and when I switch the cable to the other second monitor I see the post happen there also. These monitors, I don't really have a lot good to say about them. I have not had one last more than 6 months. You SHOULD be able to see the post, even when the monitor is in sleep mode it should wake up fast enough to get that initial screen. Both of my monitors do.
