Posted October 13, 2020 Does anyone know what is happening to my monitor? Is it repairable? It is out of warranty and I have no budget for a new one. Stripes are also seen in the predator menu. That is why I have ruled out the failure of the drivers or the graphics card. Help please!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 13, 2020 This seems to be a possible graphics card issues. If you graphics card is separate from being built into the board I would check to make sure it's seeded properly. Sometimes that Can create the issue you're seeing, however if not then test the monitor out on like a game station just see if it is the monitor. If all else fails, turn it off and unplug it; after like 1 minute or so plug it back in and turn it back on. Make sure that you shut down your computer as well and turn it back on too.

I see 3 posibilities: Something wrong somewhere with the graphics card (maybe even the port) something is wrong with you monitor (again could be the port) something is wrong with your cable. so try plugging it to a different port on the GPU, try to switch cable, try to connect something else to your monitor to see if its still happening (preferably with a different cable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 14, 2020 Author Guys thanks for your answers. I have tried to connect the chromecast directly through the hdmi port and the same error occurs. I attach photos. The lines are also seen on the home screen without any device connected. Could it have been a problem with the graphics card that misconfigured the monitor? If it were a driver problem, what steps would you advise me to follow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 15, 2020 If youve narrowed it down to the monitor, it's definitely a defect from the monitor itself, the gpu wouldn't cause damage to the monitor. You can try removing the basic drivers associated, but that's a prayer. I had the same monitor for 2 years and never saw anything of the sort, I hate to say it but it looks screwed. And acer support isn't great when you are under warranty edit: if you haven't already tried, I'll piggyback on what a previous post said because it reminded me, definitely unplug it for a few minutes and try it again. I've seen that clear some oddities on TVs and monitors before.
