Monitor is turning off after 10-20 minutes

[Flux333]

Hi there, i have some issues with my monitor (awhhh).

It's working fine like 10-20-30 minutes and then it's turning off (for no reason) while the cumputer is running and the flash/button goes pink. I don't know what's this colour stands for. Blue is when the monitor is active, yellow is when the monitor is turn to sleep and when i shut down my computer, but PINK? What's that, anyone?

The monitor is turning OFF, not in a sleep mode or something.
I must remove the cable and push back in every 20 minutes. That's wrong.

Maybe it's the cabel, maybe something with drivers and stuff...i don't know.

HELP!



please anyone....it's my moms monitor and she's gonna kill me, i blew it up.

Thanks.

Do you have another monitor you can test it out on? Are you sure its just not going to sleep and not waking up?

Windows xp?

I don't have another monitor. Actually I have, but it's a long way to bring the other one. Yes, Windows XP. I don't know what's that pink light, i see this for the first time.

Power options? My computer is set - never to turn off and stuff like that.

Maybe it's something i can do on the monitor's menu, something to set up...i don't know.

I'm new to this, so if i start to „testing“ my skills, maybe i will activate atomic bomb or something...
