Hello all, I recently picked up an Asus VG245H Monitor and I've ran into a rather baffling issue that I can't seem to resolve, I have my setup on a glass desk with a metal frame and anytime I discharge static electricity the monitor will either glitch out with a horizontal randomly colored line for a split second or reset entirely. I tried to isolate the issue further by taking the monitor off my desk and hooking it into a different outlet in the room and then running the HDMI off of my laptop that wasn't plugged in and when I discharged built up static on my desk again the monitor still reset even though it was a good 4-5 feet away. The house grounds appear to be fine as none of my surge protectors are indicating a ground fault and no other devices are affected by this issue, I'm at a loss as to how this would happen and I suspect maybe a ground fault in the monitor? Any ideas? should I return the monitor?
