Monitor losing signal

:womansad:

 

I have a OptiPlex GX270 computer and have had no issues until this week.  All of a sudden my monitor keeps losing signal.  At first did not think to much about it but now happening often.  Thought maybe my monitor was going bad so changed out and now happens on new one too.  Does anybody have any thoughts?

    As with any problem on a GX270, I'd take the case open and look for bulging or leaking capacitors on the motherboard. If you find any an electronics repair shop can replace them for you. the Dell extended warrenty has expired on this issue

    Yes, definately sounds like a motherboard issue.  We had several of the GX270s where I work and about half of them experienced this problem.
