Hi @ricla,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your monitor!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Try these steps:

1. Check the Monitor Connection:

• Ensure that the VGA, DVI, or HDMI cable is securely connected to both the monitor and the computer.
• If using a DVI or HDMI connection, make sure the cables are undamaged and properly seated.

2. Adjust Settings on Your Monitor:

• Power off the monitor and unplug it for a few seconds, then reconnect and power it on.
• Verify monitor settings such as source input are correctly set to match the connection being used (VGA, DVI, HDMI).

3. Turn Off Monitor Auto-Select Features:

• If your monitor has an input auto-select feature, turn this feature off to prevent any miscommunication during wake cycles.
• Access this setting through the monitor’s on-screen display (OSD) menu.

4. Set Sleep Display Setting:

• Set the sleep display setting to "Black" instead of "No Signal". This can often prevent issues with waking from sleep.
• You can change this setting through the operating system’s power settings or the monitor’s menu.

5. Update Monitor Driver and Firmware:

• Check for any available driver updates for your HP 2210i monitor on the HP Support website.
• Update your monitor’s firmware if a newer version is available.

Important Safety Information:

• Ensure the power cord is grounded and connected to an outlet that is easily accessible.
• Use surge protection to safeguard your monitor against electrical spikes.

I hope this helps.
