So I got this newer monitor from work since they were throwing it out. I was hoping the caps would be the issue, but no. It seems more of a bad connection of sorts? It seems heat is a factor because when it's been off for a while, it will turn on fine for a few minutes, then the lower 2/3 of the screen go to lines, and shortly after the top 1/3 does the same. After power cycling, it will happen much faster. This happens on different PCs, so I don't think that's the issue. I used the DVI port to connect it. Jiggling the cords didn't affect it.
I can't send it back since I'm not the original owner. The CO. doesn't care to waste time on it since they're only $125 or so new.
I made a video of the issue. Has anyone experienced this failure?
