hai guys
normally windows will auto shut down my monitor after 20 minutes idle
the monitor can quickly back to working state if i wanna use again ( less than 10sec)
but starting yesterday, the monitor takes kinda longer time to resume its previous state (more than 1 mnutes)
i never do anything yesterday besides remove a suspicious failure hdd tat cause my windows failed to boot up several times
should i insert window cd to repair it? or just send the monitor to factory?

FURTHER INFO
today the monitor cant even display other hardwares are ok coz i heard the windows startup sound

if bormal crt i think it's symtom of dying...

how about when restart situation? got picture?

u using crt monitor or lcd monitor?
if is slow mean ur capacitor which keep power inside so when u open can instant open up. ur capacitor dying soon cannot keep power d.

i use samsung lcd 943nwx 19' wide screen monitor
i just bought it last year & i use it for 24/7 since i bought it

isn't it a bit weird?
the problem just happened after i removed a suspicious failure harddisk

besides tat, i plan to reformat it soon, will reformat solve it if bcoz of windows problem?

i dont think your monitor fault.

then wat is the cause actually
few minutes monitor no respond kinda scary
i dun mind reformat now coz i have backup all my necessary things

Since it is a LCD which is quite light if compared to a CRT, carry it over to a friend's house to have it tested.

By the way, switching off and turning on a monitor far too frequently might not be too good for the monitor in the long run. How about disabling the auto-off completely if you don't want the problem to occur again? Go to Control Panel -> Power Options -> Turn Off Monitor: Never

i dont think it ur monitor problem too.. maybe u missed some setting on sleep mode option.

i never configure the sleep mode
now try disable turn off monitor

my samsung 931bw now also having the same probs too..

i dont know whats the problem..

now it can b switch on using analog cable luckily can on.using digital only can on at bios then off again. lol

aiyooo..

now my monitor cant even display
now i use my old CRT monitor
my 1 year shop warranty is expired aredi ( i bought at ALL IT)
but the monitor warranty is 3 years according to samsung website
should i take to ALL IT & ask them to send to RMA
or just send to samsung myself?

Try the Samsung outlet first because I suspect ALL IT will send it to them anyway if you go through them.

u mean ALL IT will not serve me coz my shop warranty period is expired?

I think they won't help you but if they do, they will still send it back to the Samsung Service Centre which takes a longer time since you have to go through ALL IT to have your LCD RMA'd.

Why not do it yourself instead since there's a Samsung Authorized Service Centre the 3rd(?) floor of Low Yat Plaza.
