I have 18 months old LG 34" monitor connected to my work Lenovo Thinkpad. It's been a good setup. Love the size. Laptop closed most of the time. But recently the monitor goes blank for a second, then back on for a few seconds then blank again then back on. And it might not happen for another hour. Or another minute.
I opened the laptop and it's screen is not going blank when the monitor does.
Pulled out the cable for the monitor (HDMI) and pushed it back in.
One year warranty on the monitor. So out of warranty.
Maybe I will try a new HDMI cable.
I got my employer to spring for this monitor but my plan is to go part time in June. They may balk and paying $350 for a new monitor.
Anything easy and cheap to try besides new HDMI cable.
I assume it's not anything in the laptop.
