I posted quite some while ago asking for monitor recommendations for the 2018 Mini. Financial constraints got in the way of further progress, but I'm back seeking knowledge and advice this time.
See image. That is what greets me from the Samsung [24" via HDMI, approx 3 years old] monitor once the Mini is reactivated after auto-sleep (ie. no activity for perhaps 15 minutes to 3 hours). The only fix is to switch the monitor to Standby and then back on again. Very occasionally that needs to be done 2-3 times.
What I would like to know is if the experts recognise a monitor issue, or a wake-from-sleep issue with the Mini's graphics function. Sometimes things wake up and function normally, eg. after being put to all-night sleep from the black apple menu.
OnyX finds nothing wrong with the System.
