Re: Hanns-G HG281D 28" TFT - Multiple Problems
No, not really. You will potentially end up with the issue some users have with Samsung TVs. The EEPROMs get corrupt and all the configuration data gets screwed up and then the TV requires an EEPROM reset. At least on Samsung TVs that is easy, but I don't know about monitors too much.
A Maplin "fire-starter" (mains plug on other end, no temperature control) iron is fine for the job, or you can borrow one. I bought a spare for £7. 25W or more is fine. DO NOT buy capacitors from Maplin - they are not low ESR (I have tried before, they are useless nowdays for components.) Caps which are not low ESR will fail shortly or possibly not work at all. They are also much more expensive!
I expect another week or maybe a month out of your monitor if you're lucky.
Open your monitor up. If you are strapped for cash let me know what caps you need and I'll add them to a Farnell order I'm making, they are 50p or so each.
