I thought that maybe listing some of the information about what is inside of certain displays will help people recognize what is inside and what couple be problematic. I am including the the three main parts where cap failure can occur (PSU, Backlight Inverter and Video Input Board). Maybe if there is enough interest then a mod or someone can turn this into a sticky where everyone lists the details of their monitors, revisions etc. I opened it to make sure all of the caps were ok before I sold it, I didn't want a cap that has already gone bad but wasn't causing problems to be a problem later. Since it was still working I am not going to replace any of the caps, just don't want to break it, plus I need the money for knee surgery.
So here we go, for my first one.
