    ViewSonic VP2030b - ghost effect?

    Hello,
    after cca 1 1/2 year after I buy this lcd, then something die and lcd will not accept signal via DVI, it takes only D-SUB. So I RMA'd lcd but after it returns from RMA now its "ghosting" (what I mean: e.g. just five minutes in total cmd and i have "nice" vertical middle line, or when I playing game like Fallout, the gui is like burned in lcd matrix). Sometimes help, when I plug off power and dvi cable for long period.

    Its lcd repairable?

    Currently i have grey/dark line (cca 1inch) above taskbar, although I change the position of taskbar from time to time (up and down).

    Please attach images to your posts by using "Manage Attachments" instead of an external service, you will get more help here when you do. It sounds like a bad panel though.

        Thank you! I have a couple Viewsonic VP201s that looks like they use the same panel, and they also do something similar around the top edges of the panel after 30 minutes or so. Like yours, it goes away after being powered off for awhile. It's my opinion that this is the panel itself and is not repairable (other than replacing the entire panel).

          I agree looks like a faulty lcd panel.

              Hello, I just opened the lcd and found some puffy capacitors (marked with red dot - Image is an illustrative character, taken from showthread.php?t=8263, I make realfoto as soon as I have a camera).

              So, can be this the reason for "ghost effect" on lcd matrix?
              Should I replace the caps? If so, tell me please with what.
              Thank you.

                Bulged caps can cause a number of problems so it is best to replace them.

                If you live in the USA, follow PlainBill's instructions to buy Panasonic FC or FM caps from digikey. See

                  Thank you.
                  The two caps next to the white connector also look bulged. You should consider replacing ALL the caps on the board. Looks like they're mostly made by the same manufacturer and it's only a matter of time before the non- bulged ones fail (if they haven't done so already).

                    2 jetadm123 Thanks, this foto is only for illustration, all caps on this pcb seems to be made by Teapo.

                        Things go from bad to worse. I reassembled lcd, and now the view is bad (like shakes). Before that, the lcd is working fine except the lines and ghost effect.

                        Can u help me please? Can be this due bad contact (logic board to lcd matrix)?

                          One problem was fixed, but another occurs.
                          Now, after power up lcd, the lcd is slightly darker, but after five minutes it blinks and possibly light up one or more lamps or do something like that - so the view is oveburnt, therefore I must set under 50% contrast and brightness. Maybe it's due to fact, that I have rear cover open...

                          Damn I tought that ViewSonic is good brand.

                          PS: Tell me please, which caps I should replace.

                            Today, lcd goes black - no view even if I disconnect from the pc (I should see message No signal and lcd then should turn off), but power led is still green. It seems that logic board with bad caps are malfunction or in the worst case died.

                              Hello, I came here after finding some similar questions asked on other monitors and hope someone here can help me get an ancient Viewsonic VP230mp (23" 4:3 LCD) back to working condition.

                              First a little background, I have a background in computer and electrical engineering, and I'm smart enough to know I know nothing about LCD displays and how they work. For this topic I'm as green as they come.
                              When the display is turned on the viewsonic logo displays in the uppper left for 2 seconds then the screen goes black, the power LED is green (on) and when a computer is connected...

                              by reformatt
                              Couple of Windows 11 machines have come in this week with the same issue. After you login, the taskbar will not appear (or just be a black bar). No access to Start Menu. Task Manager (use CTL+SHIFT+ESC) works, however the Performance stats seem stuck with CPU on 100% for Task Manager itself. Trying to exit Task Manager result in it hanging as well. No issue if you boot into Safe Mode.

                              First machine, tried many things to no avail (System Restore from last Windows update, rebooting in Diag mode, trying to reinstall Windows Apps via Powershell). In the end, I did an in-place upgrade...

                              Hi, Badcaps.

                              This panel has 2 panel board connected by a U-ribbon.

                              I took some test point voltage, when ribbon disconnected.

                              by unimatrix93
                              Hello everyone.
                              This is a Redmi note 12.
                              The display has serious ghost touching issues, so severe you effectively can't use the phone.
                              I checked all the connectors under microscope, I even resoldered the digitizer's connection on the back of the screen but it did not help.
                              So I'm az a loss. Is it the fault of the digitizer? Or the mainboard/CPU?
                              Note: The display is in perfect condition, no cracks, seperation as far as I can see.

                              Thank you!
