I forget stuff because I had to make room in my he
I'm baffled enough by this thing to not know what the hell to do.
A few weeks ago, my monitor randomly started turning itself off (it's got a button that glows green when it's on) while the rest of the computer stays perfectly running. I'm fairly sure it's NOT the machine itself because my second screen, my Wacom Tablet, which forms the second half of my shared screen, is working in perfect order. Now, it usually turns itself back on after I poke the button a couple of times...
Sometimes, the monitor will stay off when I start up the machine, but as of yesterday night, it also started turning itself off when I start to run a full-screen game. It's an adventure game that doesn't have insane demands, and yet the monitor physically shuts itself off, for some reason. And this time it won't turn itself back on when I poke the button, instead I have to manually unplug it and replug it in before I decides to stay on.
Now, I'm thinking it might be time to throw this junk of a screen away and get a newer one with a filter or something, but because I really cannot afford to just throw money away, I want to be sure that this one has really bought it.
It's a ViewSonic VA1903wb btw...
.____. any advice, anyone?
