Then I'm leaning towards the actual port on your screen :( do you get the same issue with another screen and the same cable?

A HDMI cable may be the easiest way to solve your issues (new cable, new port on the screen)

As far as I know, Caps don't release all their power, ever.

russsiiiaaan you plonker :)

Morph - I don't know - I am still getting the same problem and another problem.

on startup, it cycles through the inputs. when I press a few buttons, it lets me see the windows input for 6 seconds at a time, flashing off for 1/2 of a second. it might then also start cycling through the inputs. I have no idea what sets it off on the cycling. I have tested with another cable and it does the same, I will check to find a better cable and also an hdmi cable. I even have a vga to hdmi converting cable I will check with (need to find the adapter though). but will only be back home after 12. man this is frustrating.

edit : how long do capacitors hold their power for? if one of the caps for the power regulating/inverting/input detecting is poked, it might be the cause.

Power supply... how old is it?

If you power output dips for a split second, the screen could think that the video source is gone, so it tries to be clever and search for a new source for you.

No
