Re: ACER AL2423W Monitor - Dead Inverter
Ok, I have the monitor torn down to the panel. Surprisingly, it is a Samsung LTM240M2, which is an S-PVA screen. Odd, because I looked up the specs for the AL2423W and it shows it to have an AUO M24OUW01 panel, which is a P-MVA screen. It looks like I ended up with a very nice panel, but the problem is that I cannot seem to get it open. It has a metal bezel around the outside that's held on by metal tabs. I popped these tabs, but it does not want to come off, so I suspect it is being held in place by some sort of adhesive. I don't want to be too forceful and risk damaging the screen. Anyone had experience with this panel or similar type before?
Sorry about the flash in the pics, but it's nighttime so I really had no choice.
