My monitor has recently been going black after about 3 seconds. I have it as a second monitor connected to my laptop. I've tried changing from HDMI TO VGA. I've tried connecting the monitor to a different laptop; I get the same result. The monitor doesn't turn off, just goes black. The power light stays blue it doesn't go orange. If I unplug and plug the HDMI, I can see the screen for about 3 seconds and then it goes black. I'm unable to keep the lit so I can a factory reset.
What should I do?
