Re: Viglen CRT monitor intermittent jumping
I just had to lift the cover & take a peek inside. Its prety clean except for a kind of white soft almost chalky coating over the HT lead. It might be from damp where it was kept in his garage. I didnt want to remove it in case it was a special anti-static coating that meant to be there. I am sure its not conductive. Take a look.. As soon as those probes arrive I can get back onto fuixing my monitor which I tried again yesterday and it definitely has no picture. Its a EGA monitor and I think its the only computer and monitor that I have here that uses EGA so cant test it on anything else. I cant see the PC being at fault so sure its the monitor.
Hopefully this Scope wil now give us an answer.
