HannsG HH241 bad HDMI input?

[Masterlfd]

Hey all..

Really new here but really glad I found this forum!

I searched the forums and didn't find anything that resembled my issue so I was hoping someone may have some incite on this problem.

So I'm had this HannsG HH241 for a few years and it's been pretty solid. Last week I started getting the 2 seconds to black issue. I went ahead and replaced the 5 problem caps on the board. And as part of my initial dis assembly and testing, I screwed up one of the CCFL bulbs. So rather than mess with that I found the same exact LCD assembly on ebay and just got it in the mail. Now after I put the whole thing back together I can connect the PC to the VGA port and everything works great. But when I connect tot he HDMI port, I get "no signal input". Yes, I have manually switched the input to HDMI. I have even tried to allow the monitor to auto switch. For some reason, it just won't accept the HDMI connection even though the VGA works great.

Guys, anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

For me the problem is been already discussed, Every input connector has one memory onthe monitor board that instructs PC of the monitor capabilities (plug&play), if this serial EPROM memory go bad the input type stops working, the solution if i remember is to download a driver (.inf file) for the monitor and grab from here the info (edid data) and with a software from entech (moninfo) charge it newly on the monitor board.

First off, thanks for the reply. The problem is, I don't quite get what you are saying. Is there any guides or anything you can point me to for this process?

Thanks!

Sorry, it's not simple as i've said, i have verified and in the *.inf files that i have took there's no EDID data :-((((
So you have to contact one person that have the same model and ask him to watch in the configuration, for example in Windows Xp open program regedit, search the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY", under that there's another one that is for your monitor, copy and save the data on the EDID field and import in the program MONINFO by ENtech soft (http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm), then upload this data to your monitor, beware that the EDID must be the one for HDMI not for VGA port... ATTENTION!... is possible that in your Windows register (if you have) you still hold this data and you can load them to your monitor. If the monitor don't work after this you have to replace the eeprom and retry all the previous procedure. Bye..
