My LCD Monitor

[Citizen Soldier]

Just recently my LCD monitor has been acting up on me. Everytime i turn on my computer, the monitor takes about 5 minutes to turn on. The power button just blinks then finally i get a picture. i figure its just taking longer to warm up and turn on. the thing is its only 2 years old. Is this normal? should i be looking to get a new one soon or what.

This happened with my girlfriend's father's shop computer, the PC would boot fine (brand new), the LCD (4 years old) at the highest point would take 30 minutes to turn on. Bought a new LCD, no issues since.

Ya I plug my brothers LCD monitor in and it turned on right away. And now my monitor is officially dead, it doesnt turn on. So i guess im off to buy a new Monitor. Anyone have any suggestions?
