Ok so I have a problem with my old Dell E176FP monitor.
Basically what happens is that when the computer goes off or goes into standby, the monitor doesn't go off. Instead it goes into a Self Test Feature Check. Sadly, over the years I have had the monitor I can never have much luck turning it off. I reset it to factory settings, tried possible button combinations. All with no success. When I first got the monitor, it never used to do that. About a year or two later after that, it started with it and still does to this day.
I feel this is quite annoying, since I have to keep turning the monitor off.
If there is a fix, I would like to know.
Thanks!
