    Re: Monitors and resolution

    Well....about a month ago I bought a Samsung 204b. Native is 1600x1200. I'm liking it. No dead or stuck pixels. Best of all....it doesn't weigh a frickin' ton like my CRTs do. My back is liking this LCD also.

      I've got dual 17" CRTs here, 2304x864. (I can't run 2560x1024 at higher than 60 Hz, which gives me an awful headache!) Left one's an IBM C71 (2237) from 1998, the right one's a ViewSonic E70 from...2001 I think, that has a blue tint whenever the colors are manually adjusted. Both of them were free.
      the ev700 came from 2 oem's
      mag and lg.

        Pioneer RM-07 Active monitors cutting out from time to time
        by BigOof
        I have a pair of Pioneer RM-07 monitors that I bought a while ago. When I was testing them I noticed that one speaker would cut out and I thought it was just a bad cable connection. At the price they were being sold for I was willing to take a risk on them. However, 6 months later and the one monitor still has the same issue. Most of the time it works, but there are times that the power LED is on but I get absolutely no sound. I can hear the relay clicking on/off sometimes and then it will/won't work depending on what it feels like. I've tried XLR and RCA inputs with the same issue. There's no...

        Dell 2007FP monitors
        by capsulej
        I have a bunch of these monitors that all seem to have the same issue with bad inverter boards. Either the monitor will power on and not display a picture or it will display a picture for 2 seconds and then shut off. I know this because swapping the boards out with a working unit fixes the problem.

        Apparently this is caused by the dell soundbars overloading the monitors power rails as they are of poor quality. I would like to fix the boards if possible but im not sure what to look for.

        Wise Wing F199 19'' LCD monitor - recapped
        by momaka
        Looking through my repair pictures and notes, it's been a long time since I posted anything in the LCD monitors section. So here goes that.

        I'm dedicating this thread to one of the very first LCD monitors I repaired (if not the first one), which was more than 10 years ago now. The monitor is a Wise Wing, model F199. It's a 19” CFL-backlit LCD. I got it for free off of Craigslist in 2009 from a guy, who said he bought it for cheap from Wallmart and the monitor worked only for a little less than 2 years before quitting.

        When I saw the Craigslist post, I wasn't...

        Giving away parts from otherwise cracked monitors/TVs: Does anyone know a group/forum
        by spartantravis
        Hi Guys
        I was just taking apart an old Medion 24inch monitor that had a cracked screen. I needed the PMMA sheet inside but I am left with the working electronics, bezels and frame. It seems a waste to just throw it out considering the extortionate prices that some vendors charge for replacement parts.
        At the same time, I dislike the commerical aspects of selling stuff.
        Does anyone know of any group where people who repair monitors/TVs trade/donate parts to each other?
        The monitor is an MD 20830 23.8inch. The owner left it face down while moving stuff and somehow cracked...
