Hi !
i have an aoc u2879vf which died 3 days ago.
I legt the pc it worked fine , came back to a mostly purple screen with flickerings all over, i unplugged the dp cable ,back in ,was the same .
I unplugged the mains , plugged it in from that on no power .
Dissasembled the display found no shorts whatso ever , the power on button works , tested it with a multimeter, and there are voltages present not all around the board but fairly everywhere.
Since i did not found any info from this monitor on the internet i thought i give it a try here , if anyone has a tip or an ide please let me know , this monitor costs more then when i bought it 7 years ago ….
thank you very much!
