This might not be a problem at all if not using a UPS, but I haven't tested it. I've no clear idea why, but suspect it might have something to do with stored charge in onboard capacitors having to dissipate before it will work again. But a few weeks or months set aside is all it needs to resume normal operation. I found it worked fine.Ī handful of thunderstorms later, I've come to the realization that *disconnecting power from the ASUS monitor* is all it takes to cause it to stop working. After a while, that monitor developed problems of its own, so I put it away and tried the ASUS again. I put it into storage and hauled out another (Acer) monitor to replace it. When I powered everything back up later, one of the monitors was dead. The problems began during a thunderstorm a few years back, during which I powered down the machine and then powered down the UPS serving it and the monitors. I have two ASUS VS247 monitors, purchased years ago (new), which I initially used in a dual-monitor setup. If nothing else, I might be able to short-cut troubleshooting for others with the same problem. removing the driver, cleaning registry oif all things nVidia, and reinstalling is a worthwhie step especially if you didnt do that when upgrading the card.I realize this is a pretty old thread, but this is something I've encountered a number of times and in my case, the solution is pretty simple, albeit time-consuming. That being said, trying on a different PC is always a good idea. If ya pay less, expect the panel quaility to drop a bit with the extent of the drop getting larger the lower the cost. In the 24' range, the best TN monitors are going to cost $250, This allows for the inclusion of a high quality TN panel. a $250 IPS monitor is not better thasn a $250 TN monitor. But the best IPS cost twice as much as the best TN so no. It is true that the best IPS monitors are better than the best TN monitors. Most agree that 'IPS is better than TN' but that's not really true. The better monitor review sites tend to focus their time on those competing for 'best in class' and don't give much attention to the budget monitors. Monitors are a tough item to buy because most of the published information is generally false.
