Windows 10: LG monitor 32qn600-B monitor problems still goes black

so the new screen goes black randomly every once and a while: WIN 10 lists as a generic pnp according to LG there is no driver to update. WIN10 only lists the 2006 generic driver. The video card NVIDIA GT730 has the latest driver updated. I exchanged out the HMDI on the 2 back monitor ports, different cables still getting random black flash. I was told after uninstalling/ reinstalling shutting down the PC would show this monitor but still lists as generic PnP. This is a PC not used for games just normal old lady PC for my mom. LG has only a dual monitor driver and nothing else and afte

Laptop External Monitor Problem

Discovered the best interim solution and best way to live this problem:

• I have changed my LG TV auto power setting to OFF - therefore the monitor remains ON constantly and therefore laptop instantly presents a display to my monitor, sleep, restart etc..

The critical issues being in this bizarre problem :-

• Windows 10 HP laptop is both physically and S/W connected to LG monitor
• LG monitor can take up to 45mins to present this display on each and every day
• Connected laptop via HDMI to three other monitors(TV’s etc), same problem, one TV was less than six months old
• There appears to be raised problems generally in relation to such an external monitor problem on the WWW
• Never incurred such a problem in Windows 7

I stress these are the facts of my problem and thank you again

 

Monitor goes black - Windows+Ctrl+Shift+B

For anyone having a display adapter keep dropping a second monitor and you know it should be there do Windows+Ctrl+Shift+B.

That is a shortcut to refresh your display adapters. It will appear to freeze a moment (or go black on all monitors) but it is refreshing the graphic driver.

Here is my experience:

Problem - i have two setups. One with Windows 10 installed directly (personal) and one with Windows 10 upgrade from Windows 7 (work).

Both are the same model and both use the same docking station. Many co-workers and friends have this same issue where Display 2 goes black.

This seems to happen when the display is idle for too long... For me, at home i use two monitors off the dock - sometimes 3 with the LTop open.

At work, i use three monitors off the docking station directly - Windows 7 never did this but Win10 always has...

For some reason as well it is ALWAYS adapter 2 - never 1, never 3 - just display 2. Clearly there is info there as the mouse travels a distance from 1 to 3 or when just two, the pointer does not stop at the edge - it goes somewhere...

For those who remember, you can do "desk.cpl" to get to the display settings quickly. Right now i was idle for too long away from my laptop & yup, once again, monitor 2 is displaying a black screen. I opened desk.cpl and of course it is on monitor 2 and
i cannot see it. Ctrl+Space+M and then move the display to monitor 1 or 2 fine... it detects all three monitors but only 1 and 3 identify - even though it shows a number 2 (funny - number 2 is windows 10).

Even refreshing (Ctrl+R or F5) does not resolve this.

A reboot always resolves this but we shouldn't have to do that.

A quicker fix until there is a fix from MicroSoft for this is to do "Windows +Ctrl+Shift+B" - this reloads the graphics driver.

This will appear to freeze or cause all monitors to go black while it is reloading (only takes a couple seconds) - BAM! Monitor 2 is back displaying again.

Side note: Power users familiar with "Shift+Right Click" to perform "run as another user" notice that while the TaskBar & other areas still have this function, someone forgot to add that to the "start" area. Folks are grouping items there for "ease of use"
but then cannot do that - it's an easy reg hack to add it to that area - google it.

 

Primary monitor randomly goes black

Got a monitor issue. Looked at other posts about this issue be could not find anything addressing my issue. Over the past few months, my primary monitor randomly (no pattern to the issue) goes black but the led shows it to still be working. Secondary monitor is working. Only way to get the primary back is to reboot the computer. I tried reversing the DVI-D cable but no luck, primary still goes black. Regardless of which monitor is set to primary, that is the monitor that goes black. The monitor set as secondary never goes black. Any ideas?
