Re: eMachines standby problem

I would check these three things.

1. Remove the monitor plug from the rear of the computer. Then re-plug the
cable. If any of the pins have become oxidized (poor signal path) this will
clean them off.

2. Do the same with the video card within the computer.

3. Modern monitors have integrated circuits and other various chips, much
like a current printer. When a printer gets hung up, removing the AC cord
for about 30 seconds will clear a fault and allow the printer to function
again. I have found the same technique works (occasionally) with monitors.
But, you have to leave the monitor unplugged a far longer amount of time -
up to an hour - for all the large capacitors to truly discharge and remove
all trace voltage from the micro chips. When done, you will have to reset
your screen width and height, as all settings will likely have been lost.

If the above doesn't help, try a new video card.

That's what I am telling. If I push the power button or use the
keyboard... it does not come back from standby. The whole original
message except the first sentence is after I push the power button to
bring back from standby.
