A little while ago I bought the 24" LED BenQ (review and another long thread in this forum as well).
One thing I had noticed was how it never switched off since the day I first powered it up. Its "power on" light is either green, or amber when the PC switches off. I occasionally pressed the "on-off" button but nothing happened.
Last evening I got annoyed at how the monitor would refuse to switch off when I pressed the button so I held the button for 4-5 secs and voila! It finally switched off, no more amber light.
This morning I tried to switch it back on, and .. no fish!
To cut a long story short I spent 15 minutes changing power cables trying the switch on and off. It eventually powered up after 15 minutes. I have no idea what's going on.
The power on-off switch does not do what a reasonable person would expect. Plus it stubbornly switches off and does not come on again no matter what you do.
Do I have a duff one or are all behaving the same ?
