Re: gateway le 1936 vga symbol shows and then turns off
oooooh kayyy...
Sounds like "2 seconds to black", causes include bad CCFLs, bad transistors, bad transformers, bad wiring and bad caps... among others.
Retiredcaps knows far more about this than I do. A good start would be to remove the cover of the monitor and post pictures of the inside. Don't attach them inline, use "Manage Attachments". Retiredcaps isn't the only one annoyed by this. The wifi in my room is poor, so pages load slowly. Adding images inline makes them slower.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
