Ok so i am gonna describe the problem. So my new monitor has been like going on standby mode (black screen) and im using a DVI cable, now when its connected to the graphics cards for some reason the usb connection plays and it will the usb disconnecting sound will play and the screen will go black. it keeps driving me crazy i have no idea whats going on? anyone can help me?
 
Solution
Might be because the DVI cable you're using, is faulty. I suggest to try another DVI cable if you can and then see if it works. I had a similar problem that you're facing and I fixed it by just replacing the cable. Works like a charm now.

yeah that's the thing, now i have to get another one. it just keeps disconnecting and going to a black screen and keeps making the disconnecting sound one time.
 
Then I'm pretty sure it's the DVI connectors on the cable that are faulty. If the second DVI cable does the same thing, then sadly it might be the DVI port that is broken. If so, then I suggest you to take it to the place where you bought your graphics card and monitor, because then it just might be a warranty case.
 


Thing is i bought Both of them from craigslist -_- :fou: but when i tested another monitor with a VGA its seems ok, you see, right now i am using the monitor that has been having problems, its like now it won't disconnect, but then like 3 days or 4 days later it will go black screen again. i should of saved my money for a build system.
 


yeah, right now its working fine. but soon i will get another monitor.
