Had my NEC Multisync 20WGX2 for about 2 weeks now,beautiful picture and really happy with my present to myself :D

My PC is in my living room and I just leave it on when I relax on the sofa so it goes to screensaver and then switches off the video output.

I've been hearing a totally irritating regular whiney whistle from the direction of the computer desk and after using air duster on fans,tightening all screws etc I was going to start replacing my fans.

Finally realised it was the monitor making the noise BUT only after the screensaver goes off!!

Should I be concerned about this? Has any other owners noticed it? How to fix it? Or just stop being lazy and turn the monitor off when I leave it?

Happens when its on standby mode. Solution? Turn it off when not in use :)

Shame on you for using a screensaver! Bad for the environment ;)
