It don`t sound like a bad inverter if it is running good when
plugged
directly to the wall outlet. If it only does this when plugged into
the powersupply of the computer then this would be a problem of the
computers powersupply. Did you try to plug it into another computer
to see if you still have the same problem ? I would suggest to try
this first and see what happens.


Maybe I read it wrong, but I don't think that this is what the guy
was
saying. I read it as he was always using the external power unit, that
came
with the LCD monitor, and if he left it plugged in the wall, ie with
power
always available to this power supply, but with the monitor turned
off, when
he came to switch the monitor on, it came on ok. If, however, he
plugged in
to any power source that was turned off for periods of time eg his
UPS, or
unplugged from the wall for any length of time, then when he came to
put
power back on the PSU, and then tried immediately to switch on the
monitor,
he got the buzzing, spitting failure to start up, which is typical of
a
defective switching PSU, with bad electrolytics. Perhaps the OP can
confirm
??

If this is actually the case, then all the stuff about Windows and
rebooting
etc is probably a red herring. It just relates to the length of time
all
this takes, which gives the power supply time to struggle to a
startup.

If that was what he was stating. I may have read his post wrong to
what he was trying to say. Then I would have to say yes that he has
something wrong with the external powersupply.
