RightI don't have a clue what is wrong here so i hope someone does! For about 3 Months now when i click a link or anything on my destop for that matter the monitor either flicks to a black screen for a second or 2 and sometimes freezes fopr about 20 seconds. It also makes the picture go all weird.Now it is really getting on my nerves now and it is effecting everything i do. And within the last few days it has started tuning the monitor off and saying no input signal going to sleep, i cannot get it back on after this therefore i have to restart the pc. I don't know if it is my monitor that is the problem or something else! Any help would be really greatfull! Nick
