    Same problem. Took 1-5 minutes to fully turn off after strange blinking and popping noises with repeated power button pressing.. now it just literally won't do anything.. dead. I am calling them tonight with model/serial numbers. I bought this December 2006 and have progressively had power issues.. sometimes it randomly would turn off even.

Hello,

That is a hell know problem with the 940MW tv/monitors. The power supply has failed because of parts called capacitors have shorted. If you can solder then you should be able to repair your monitor. Here is a link to the repair guide for this issue.

On and off switch not working

Hello Michael,

The most common problem with the Samsung 940MW units that don't turn on is a failure of the power supply board. There are parts called capacitors that fail which in turn causes the power supply to not startup correctly so the monitor never powers up. Here is a link to a repair guide that should get you back watching tv and using the monitor in no time.
