CompTIA A+ 220-1101 (V14) Practice Question

A technician is troubleshooting a workstation whose external monitor randomly flickers and briefly goes black. Display settings, driver versions, and the monitor's built-in self-test all check out. During the visual inspection, which of the following observations would MOST likely explain the intermittent video loss?

  • The screen-saver timeout on the operating system is set to five minutes.

  • The monitor's contrast is manually set to its maximum value.

  • A powered USB hub is plugged into the same power strip as the monitor.

  • The HDMI/DisplayPort cable is deeply bent, and the outer jacket is split with shielding visible near the connector.
