And just like the poster directly above me, if I accidentally shutdown the monitor via the touch button and turn it on again, it would turn itself OFF, I have to turn it on many times while pulling the casing so that the button isn't pressed by the casing and then slowly release it once it's been on for a few seconds.

I also experienced a really bad problem more than half a year ago, these monitors have this preview option where half the screen can be different in brightness and contrast, it got stuck like that and I endured it for a couple of months, then with some luck I got the menu to work, but I still removed it.

Like the poster above me, I also removed the circuitry with the buttons by disconnecting it from the mainboard, the problem was NOT resolved. After a while when the monitor was ON the menu would sometimes appear and stay stuck there, removing it was a pain in the butt, after a while the problem resolved itself, but now when the monitor is waken when it has been Off or in Standby mode, the menu just flashes a few times and disappears. The W2261VP-PF worked fine for a year and a half and then the monitor's buttons started to fail one by one, when they stopped working altogether. I got it as a replacement of another LG Flatron monitor that went bad after just 3 months, this was back in 2010 March or April. Just registered to say I have the exact same problem with the LG Flatron W2261VP-PF. So if anyone else has had this problem (it's common enough that a Google search pulls up multiple sites of people asking for help) and knows how to fix it, I'd love to hear it. When I contacted LG about it, they were very vague about pricing, so I'd rather not pay the money to send it to them and only then find out how much it's going to cost, especially since I have something else for now. I've had it for about 3.5 years and the warranty only lasts for 3, so crappy timing. The menu and adjustment buttons are physical, but the power button is touch. If I can figure out what's wrong with it, DUAL MONITORS!) This is the monitor I had/have (I haven't given up on fixing it yet. Between waiting for it to arrive and messing with it, I didn't make it back here for awhile. Well, as you can tell from my late reply, I decided to just buy a new monitor.
