Hi. I am not very technical so please do use laymen's terms when replying so that I can understand you well.

 

My computer monitor is an LG. I don't know the exact model name beyond that but it's 21.5 inches if that helps. I've had it several years with no problems until just recently it started blinking on and off whenever the computer starts up and this lasts maybe a couple minutes until it stops. I was on an older Windows 10 computer when this started and thought it would go away when purchasing a newer Windows 11 refurb. This problem is still continuing and I don't know what to do. 

 

I don't have the money to replace the monitor right now after just buying the Windows 11 computer. Can the monitor be fixed so that this stops for good? The blinking makes it unusable until that stops and I have to use this computer daily. And if it can't be permanently fixed is this monitor soon to stop working completely? Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

You have confirmed yourself that it is the monitor itself or possibly the video cable if you are still using the same one, if using an alternative cable does not change the behaviour the monitor is toast as repairing such an old monitor would not be a cost effective option i`m afraid.

Thanks for letting me know. At this point I will try to save some money and replace the monitor if a new video cable doesn't work.
