    Another AL196W Acer Monitor Repaired Sort Of

    This is another AL196W Monitor I looked at this morning.. found one bad cap in the power supply and found an iffy cap on the video board so it got replaced.

    Anyway machine came back to life, has a picture all the functions work just that on a white page I can see sort of like a robins egg blue colour and some vertical lines

    Is this a sign of further bad caps on the video board or a sign the LCD panel itself is fubared?

    Edit.. this unit has been running on my bench since I fixed it.. had a short nap.. went and checked on it now it seems to be normal.. just a tad confused on this one.

      Looks to me like a loose LVDS cable; if it comes back try reseating it, consider applying glue on both ends.
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
      For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

              HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
              by momaka
              Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

              How to force Acer Aspire Series to bootup BIOS/UEFI on external Monitor?
              by maralexbar
              I ask this question in general as there are many Acer Aspire models with UEFI Insyde BIOS that do not boot to the BIOS on an external monitor (VGA, HDMI, etc) showing only the Internal LCD (LVDS, eDP etc).
              It's a pain to work on Acer notebooks with a broken screen and not being able to access the BIOS using an external monitor.

              If anyone knows how to force the external monitor as primary for Notebooks of those models
