    Hey, so I have an HP Monitor for my desktop, and i've had it awhile.

    As of the past couple of days, I'll be using it and it'll shut off randomly. It wont turn back on, so I wiggle with the connections and if Im lucky, I can press the power button again and it'll come on. The rest of my PC doesn't have issues when this happens, just the monitor.

    I try to make sure its tightly connected (as much as I can because the design of this thing sucks for connections)

    Does the monitor actually power down or just lose the video signal? If it actually powers down it could well be a thermal issue.

    It powers down. I have to hit the power button on it to turn it back on (Which sometimse it does, sometimes it doesn't). If I mess with the plugs, it sometimes will let me turn it back on.
