So a few days ago i was using my monitor and i went to the kitchen for whatever reason. When i came back the monitor was black and the power button was green which means the monitor is getting a signal from the computer. I made sure all of the connections were tight and turned both the monitor and computer on and off. when the computer was off the monitors light switched to orange (standby) and when the computer was turned on it went back to green (responding) the only thing is that the screen stays black through all of this.
Right now im running on an older monitor which i plugged in and it worked fine. So that rules out the computer/video card and all. about a year and a half ago i ran into a very similar problem with this monitor where i would get a no signal message in the middle of the screen even though the monitor was displaying fine. Then it got to a point where the monitor had to "heat up" for as much as 10 minutes before it would start working. then it eventually quit all together. So i a bought kit from this site and the problem was fixed.
I changed out those capacitors which iznt all of them, just most. Now i wonder if other ones have gone bad but i opened the monitor back up and i dont see any obvious bad caps.
Only 2 caps seem bulged a little. The one big one on the power supply board and one small cap on the video board.
So let me know what you guys think based on the symptoms/pictures.
