johnoo Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Have a Hanns G JC151A monitor, the menu keeps coming up on the screen & then disappears. Also the control buttons on monitor do not function. Any ideas on how to cure problems? Note:- I've carried out a full Lenovo diagnostic check on computer & no problems found. Am using Windows 10 version :- 21H1 & it's up to date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 This 15" one ? - if so it must be 12+ years old ? https://www.cnet.com/products/hanns-g-jc151a-lcd-monitor-15/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it something to do with M/Soft drivers on Win 10? Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnoo Posted September 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Second thoughts ,it is a bit old! Could you recommend a reasonable priced/good quality replacement? Don't want anything large, as I'm satisfied with the 15" Hanns. Also, are they just plug in & go or do you have to install software? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should all be just plug and go - but make sure that the socket connection to your motherboard matches the monitor.. Your monitor probably has a DSub (VGA) connection - modern ones may not have this, only DVI or HDMI sockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnoo Posted September 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 Thinking of getting this one, 18.5" & VGA connection:- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00I46KEWQ/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza BUT, question, there is no mention of "Audio" My current monitor has a green wire connection from Monitor to PC, assume this is Audio wire? Does this mean that the one I'm thinking of does not support Audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 https://www.hannspree.eu/product/he-195-anb/ would appear to say no audio support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 Very few monitors include speakers these days 😐 These 19" ones appear to have them https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=monitor+with+speakers+19 but if in stock are somewhat more expensive ! How about this one ??? https://www.cclonline.com/product/hanns-g-he196apb-monitor-18-5-inch-1366-x-768-hd-tn-panel-black-he196apb/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got what I want, VGA + Audio & reasonable price. Why only a few with speakers, do most people have seperate speakers these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
