3440 x 1440 Microboard Monitor - Sleep Mode Issue

[SilentWolf]

I bought the 3440x1440 Microboard monitor that was showcased in the LTT channel a few months ago. I've used it since and it's a great monitor.

 

However, a week or two ago, there has been an issue where the screen switches colors every second and a message with a "Blight time" timer. This happens when the computer is either shut off, or in sleep mode. Where, I would expect the monitor to just stay a black screen, I get this picture instead (See attached). I detached the DP cable, and it is still like this.

 

Has anyone with this monitor, or perhaps with any Samsung panel, had this problem? I'm not sure how to fix it.

I have the same monitor with the same issue. Did you ever figure out a fix for this problem? I can't figure out how to RMA the monitor since everything is in Korean...

[SilentWolf]

Found a fix! Just doing a factory reset will fix it. (See my PM, Hobosox)

So even when my computer was out of sleep mode the monitor was still giving me this issue. I finally found a fix, which was to plug in a second monitor and play around with nvidia control panel. Something in there forced it to work. Took me a long time to figure that out, but it works now finally.

Good to hear. Such an odd issue.
