Hey everyone, i'm first timer to this forum and i've never tired to do anything like this(repairing electronics)but I have faith that I can do it, I just need more info. I have a gateway monitor, model LP2407 that stop working one day after a power outage. I've been researching and I can't find to out if it would just be something as simple as "badcaps" or something maybe more difficult to repair, even if so I hope with help from you guys i'll be able to do it.

2) Post a picture of your multimeter so we know its capabilities.
3) If you are new to electronics, watch this short multimeter tutorial by my fellow Canadian ...
