Around a year ago I was gifted with a Sony GMD-FW900 and it has been working amazingly up until the last few weeks. Now, when I turn the monitor on initially, it blinks between normal and bright blue. It will then either shut off, or settle on displaying normally.

Once it's been on for a minute or so, there's no issue whatsoever, so I've just been leaving it on 😛

This isn't optimal of course, and I was wondering if anyone had some insight. I've very little experience with monitors and this is the first one I've owned that's actually worth trying to save!
