    Hanns-G HD281D emits a pop -- a noise when changing resolution

    Howdy....

    Searched through the archives, but did not find a problem like this. My HG281D is now producing a noticeable "pop" when when changing resolutions. I first noticed this sound when using a KVM to switch between computers connected to the monitor. The two computers were running at different resolutions and toggling between them eventually produced this popping noise.

    Later, I removed the KVM and attached the monitor to one computer. It still pops each time the computer boots and screen resolution switches from boot resolution (1280-960?) to 1920x1200. Does this popping sound indicate that I have a cap problem? Could it be the inverter? What else could it be? The monitor works great and has no other problems, but I am concerned this popping sound could be a harbinger of things to come. Any thoughts or experience with such a problem would be appreciated. Thanks!

    According to the specs I found on Newegg, it does have built-in speakers.
    Just a hint as to where it might be coming from..

      Thank you for the suggestion. I have never had audio cables attached to the monitor and I have no idea where the internal speakers are located, but I will check this out. I will first turn down/off the volume and see what happens. Thanks for the suggestion!

      10 minutes later....

      Turned volume down to 0 and muted the speakers. No popping sound on reboot. I hope this resolves the problem!

        Yeah I ran into the same problem. Tried to find a pic on google image search about the speakers or the back of the monitor to see where they might be hidden.. no luck.

        They're probably matchbox-sized at best.

        If you don't have any warranty left, you could just open it up and disconnect them from the mainboard. Crude but effective. And while you're in there, you could also check the caps. Depending on what they used in there and how old it is, they might be on their way out already despite the monitor working fine..

          Yes, I want to check the caps, even though it is presently working great. When I have some spare time, I will open it up and examine it. Noise from the speakers never entered my mind, but turning off the volume seems to have solved the problem! Thanks again.

            Removing electrical noise introduced by fan
            by tony359
            Hi all,

            I am working on a sound processor, it tends to overheat so I fitted a fan inside. The fan is connected to the +15V of the PSU via a DC-DC converter based on the LM2596 to reduce the voltage to around 10.5V.

            Unfortunately the analogue circuitry is picking up the noise from the fan in two ways:
            1. The fan is close to the analogue section, the motor itself gets into the outputs so I'll have to move it somewhere else
            2. Even with the fan running outside of the case, there is still some noise which is clearly going back to the processor via power line....

            Onkyo TX-SR805 noise in one channel
            by MegaZAC
            Surprisingly enough, this receiver doesn't have the DSP chip issue. The HDMI board does not get hot, and sound over HDMI works fine.

            Regardless of the input, the right channel has noise that is clearly noticeable even on average volume level. The only cases when there's no noise is when VCR input is selected (some tracks on the board are damaged, maybe that's why), or if HDMI input is selected but nothing plugged into it. In all other cases, even when no input is connected I still have the noise.

            There's some logic behind it. As soon as I select an input I get only left...

            Philips HTS8000 home cinema noise problem
            by courtcircuit
            Hello

            I have since a long time a Philips HTS8010S/01 which has been old but was doing the job.

            Since a few days, it starts by making a weird "static" nois when switches on for a few seconds to a minute and then works like a charm.
            Noise loudly outputs from the 3 channels, even if no signal is sent by the controler.DVD to the subwoofer/amp unit.

            I was thinking of a soldering that was starting to be damaged and that was only doing the job after a few seconds of heating, most probbaly on the power board

            Denon AVR 1908, High pitch noise on Surround back Left channel after long overhaul
            by karatzdi
            Hello,

            I know some might say... just buy another one. Sell it as parts..!

            So had this AMP for quite some time. Recently I saw light smoke coming out of the AMP. Had my fire extinguisher close by. Just kidding. Turned immediately all devices off from mains.
            Let things cool a bit, and opened up the amp device. I clearly saw on the main board which hosts the 5X amp (5.1), 3 10 ohms 1W resistors had their leads looking black, while the rest of the remaining 2 x 10 ohms were brownish as being installed from factory.

            Spent some time downloading the Service...

            LG 50PB690 power supply terrible noise
            by Biruslapio
            I bought this TV with really bad oxidation on the power supply and bottom X boards, it was working but during pickup there was a lot of background noise so I don't know if it had this problem before.

            As soon as I could I opened the tv and started working on it, did not test it before since it had back bars on the screen and obvious signs of humidity. The X boards were replaced and the screen now works 100%, but the power supply...

            I washed the board and resoldered almost everything on the primary, the oxidation happened because of constant mains AC current flowing,...
