Evening (Argh! Morning)
I was going to query whether it was a Benq!
No its an Apple, that came with the Macpro
I had a Benq experience the same issues as described by Gary and
Ruben! It was my personal 17" circa 2004-5. It was under warranty
and I took it to a service centre but typically it didn't fault
while they had it. I ended up having it in storage due to moving and
when I pulled it out it didn't work. By then it would have been out
of warranty so I threw it especially with the prices of LCD's going
down. Even today I still don't run with an LCD at home just using
the laptop screen.
Although I wasn't aware that it could be quite a common occurrence!

I have a similar problem with my 2nd monitor. It's a 17" BenQ and
it even comes on for a few seconds before the screen goes black. I
pulled it apart to see if I could notice any burnt out transistors
but I couldn't.
I've decided not to bother trying to fix it since it's possible to
buy a 20" BenQ brand new with a warranty for $150

sounds like the power supply "sees" a short circuit thus it
switches off & then retries it again....
may be its a problem in the back lighting, are you sure its not
just on standby because of a problem with dvi cable?????
would have to be taken apart........

I have a 23in + 20 in screen attached my a mac pro.
Last night the RCD tripped.
now the 20 inc screen show just a black screen - the little light
at bottom RH corner flickers on and off.
I've restarted with swapped DVI port with just the 20 inc
attached - but still no screen - just black.
what have I done to my screen?
