Sometimes my monitor loses signal briefly...

It'll, once in a while, flicker to black briefly and the connection icon will appear on the top-left of the screen. Sometimes it'll keep going on and off for a little while and stops when I turn the monitor off and on. This doesn't happen often and usually happens just after I start up the computer.

It's a minor annoyance and I wouldn't even say its a big deal, since reseting the monitor solves the problem. I just want to be assured that it won't get worse, or that my monitor won't go bad (I have a feeling it's a connection issue anyways...). I paid over $400 for the thing and I'm wanting it to last at least a couple more years... (it's a Dell 2408WFP btw)

Check your connection to the video card and monitor, if thats good maybe reset your video card to make sure its in nice and snug. If that doesn't work maybe try to get a new one if you still have warranty.

But other then the momentary flash to black...the monitor works flawless and looks beautiful. That 116% color gamut really makes thing pop...( most monitors are 70 to 80%) When I got it my new monitor I played FO3 again....Wow...like playing a different game...the colors..the vibrance and richness...just wow ! It's a great monitor...except for the momentary black flashes...( which again are rare..and I could the amount of times it happens in a month on my fingers...so it is rare...but annoying)

It's a problem with the whole line of monitors. I had a non-widescreen 17" Ultrasharp that had this problem not even after having it for 2 years. Except when the monitor went out it went out, turning it off and on didn't work. Dell is full of @#^% if they say it's your video card. I'd try to demand a refund or replacement, imo a refund and go with a better company for monitors.

I'd get a refund and get this LG monitor. (Also have a cheaper 22" version)
