I have a 2007 samsung synchmaster with a wierd symptom.
The top third to quarter of the screen is much brighter than the bottom part. AND this is a very well defined horizontal border across the whole screen between the upper and lower parts. That is, the good part doesn't gradually fade into a bad part, it's like crossing a border. The bottom 2/3-3/4 of the screen displays fine.
the other WEIRD part is that when the mouse pointer is on the top part of the screen (the clearly defined bright part), the pointer has a ghost/trail. That is, if you move the mouse pointer across the problem part of the screen, it has a trail of pointers following after it, and there seems to be some lag between my hand movement and what happens on the screen.
No components LOOK bad. I don't have any spare parts to switch out with. I replaced all the caps on the tcon board.
The pics are of the screen saver moving across the border, both downwards and upwards.
As always, your help is greatly appreciated!!
