Trinitron Monitor

Question

Hello! Recently I bought a dell Trinitron. Unfortunately it seems to be having some problems. When I attempt to put it in specific screen resolutions, the screen begins to flicker and the monitor starts to make a strange noise until it goes back to my current resolution. Also, I am unable to play any of the video games on my computer. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Are there some drivers that I need for this Trinitron? Thanks!

How about some details... How recently did you buy this and what specific model is it? Video card? Current drivers? Does your computer recognize the monitor or is it just a 'generic plug-and-play' monitor?

I have a trinitron monitor working fine for the last three years -- lately, when accessing any website the monitor SELF-POWER  OFF.   Disconnected this monitor and connected to different PCs, same problem occured. So the problem must be at the monitor -- NOT the video card or PC.   Does any one know this cause of  SELF POWER OFF: it is a nuisance that one has to power ON for every new website that you access.
