Samsung S23A750D 23" 120Hz Problem

[nevica]

Hello,

I have a few days ago received this monitor from OCuk.

Samsung S23A750D 23" 120Hz

I am using it with a Gainward Nvidia GTX570 Phantom GPU via DisplayPort cabling.

The trouble I am having is that the monitor has great trouble picking up a signal from the GPU when the computer has gone into sleep mode or been switched off (at this point I can get a signal to the monitor). It's only when I turn the computer back on and then the monitor that I get no signal. To get a signal I have to remove the power cable and put back in or sometimes remove the DP cable and put back in.

I have tried not turning the monitor off (the monitor goes into a sleep mode when the computer goes into sleep mode) but on putting the computer on it does not pick up a signal.

It is only by removing the power cable and/or DisplayPort cable will I get a signal. And this is intermittent.

I have tried upgrading the firmware from Samsung but this hasn't helped.

Any ideas?

Hello,

There is a thread here on the Nvidia website.

There has been a communication issue between Nvidia drivers and Samsung Firmware.

There was a firmware update from Samsung for its SA class monitors on 26th Sept 2012

I have the updated firmware and latest Nvidia drivers but the issues with the monitor still remain.

NVidia and Samsung still have their work cut out for them to fix this issue.

Please post any updates regarding this.

Some people have reported that DVI-D to DisplayPort works for them. The question is: What type of DP cable will work (1.0, 1.1, 1.2)

Thanks,
