How do you switch the input on this monitor? I plugged in my 750ti to it and it just shows no vga signal...what am i doing wrong?

Unfortunately I cannot answer. Would suggest he call ASUS or go to their web page-maybe they have a chat line or help line.

The only thing I can think of is there are about 6 control buttons on the lower right edge of the monitor that you might have to turn on or adjust. I haven't had any trouble with mine.

I'm sorry, Mike. I have no idea. Perhaps someone else can answer your question.

I believe that the VGA output won't go higher than the 1280, so you would need a MicroHDMI to HDMI instead of to VGA. You should be able to change the monitor settings to a lower resolution, but that depends on your monitor

Does the monitor work? Are you connecting it were another monitor was already connected? Already mentioned but is the monitor set to the right port? If you have more then just a new monitor you need to eliminate everything that is different in your new setup. Have you used the display port before? Is this a new cable? You already said the monitor was new.

Ello Peter ... there's a toggle switch on the front of the monitor ... which honestly I've never used, as I've only ever had one device with it. I've either had my PC plugged into the DVI port - or - now - currently - I'm using it as a short term solution till I figure out which tv I'm going to purchase next. Thanks.

Did you try to unplug the HDMI cable? If you switch input source or bring up the menu, does this show the overlay screen with the correct colors? Otherwise search for this at the internet.

I have hooked it up to my PC and it looked fantasic. The resolution is the same as yours IIRC. Check you VGA cable, it almost sounds like it is too long or it is bad. It should look really nice when you have it working right. Also check to see how old your video card is, older cards may have trouble since it is an odd resolutions. Check the manuf web site to see if there are updated drivers. Ernie

Cannot help you, if still under return timeframe, return it. I have two units, one used for three years, one still new in box, even un-opened--was going to sell it so did not want to open the box, but decided to keep it since now discontinued. Your post reminds me--I should take it out of the box and check it. Question--are you sure it is the monitor and not your video card in the computer, or interference from some other device? Check online for like symptoms.Love this monitor. If you can find a fix, and otherwise in good condition, worth fixing yourself.

Thank you all for your comments and tips. Ive just exchanged the monitor for another unit and the replacement unit does not have the same first start/powering on flickering. Btw, i tested the original unit on a ps4, 2 diferent desktops, and a laptop each with their own cable but the result were the same. In the manual it stated that flickering is "normal" due to the nature of the LED backlit, and call support only when the monitor no longer power on due to the flickering. (...?)

Never (using this monitor since 6-13). Do you have a message on the screen when this happens - "no xx input," etc.? Check cables.

Do not try to use a monitor with a D style VGA connector that has an hd-15 connector, I tried buying two kinds of adapters to go from hd-15 to hdmi and neither one of them worked.

It didn't work for me. No signal at all. I have since found out that you need a analog to digital converter to convert the VGA (analog) signal to the HDMI (digital)signal. I may be explaining this wrong, but something like this. Regardless, i had to order a totally different cable with a converter. This cable did nothing for me.

Make sure your monitor is tuned in properly to the right channel. It needs to be on DVI, not VGA or HDMI.

I have had the monitor for 2 weeks, but it is used constantly. I frequently attach or separate it from different PCs, and it has been both shut off completely--or simply allowed to hibernate. I have not experienced this problem of the audio failing to switch on with the monitor. I suspect that the monitor is choosing the wrong audio input and perhaps decoupling it from your video signal. Are you using HDMI (for both video & audio), or do you have a separate audio signal input? My guess is that if you use VGA, you should avoid leaving any source plugged into the HDMI port. Likewise, if you are using HDMI, use a newer cable that supports audio and disconnect the audio input at the back of the monitor. Does any of this make sense? Did it help?

I agree and disagree.. I plugged mine in HDMI, same thing; DVI on the other hand lines up perfectly. This works out cause my r9 270 gfx card has HDMI, VGA, and DVI so my HDMI is empty for my 42 inch ;). But, I think you would have to manually stretch the screen through the irritating menu. For people who haven't gotten this yet, its not that bad; they just don't label the buttons. But if you can't navigate through a monitor screen, well you shouldn't be using a computer lol.. Great monitor so far!
