HP 2310 Monitor keeps turning off and on.

[Bowske]

Hey everyone.

A day ago, my monitor (HP 2310 series wide LCD monitor) started to randomly turn off and on (like in, the screen turns black for a second and then turns on again), and I have no idea why. I've had this monitor for one and a half year now and never had a problem. It just randomly started yesterday, I haven't changed anything on my PC, it seems the problem is the monitor because I tried to switch it with one of my older monitors and there are no problems at all. My operation system is Windows 7. Sometimes a error message pops up, saying "Input Signal out of range, change to 1920x1080 and 60Hz" but the monitor is already set to those settings...

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I just figured out that the problem is with the HDMI cable, probably a loose contact inside!

But thank you anyways for the help. Just saved a lot of money by just switching cables.
