Hi all, my Samsung 275t Plus no longer turns on. When the problem started it took a significant amount of time, up to 10 minutes at times, for the display to turn on. It did not matter if it was a cold boot or coming out of sleep mode. Flipping the power switch in the back off, then on again would usually get the display to turn on. After awhile the display started to turn off after a few seconds. I should note that the power light indicated that the monitor was off, so this doesn't fall under the "2 seconds to black" category.
So, I'm reasonably certain something is wrong with the power supply in the monitor. The problem is opening it up to find out. The only screws on the monitor were to hold the stand on. There are no other screws visible on the outside of the monitor. I attempted to pry the back cover from the monitor, but that is easier said then done as the back cover fits into the front. Basically I don't see any easy way to disassemble the monitor without destroying it. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I just figured out how to get the back panel off. Still, any help in diagnosing the actual problem would be greatly appreciated. I know that this might not be enough info. I'll try to upload photos when I get to the actual PSU.
