      Re: Problems with Samsung 740N monitors

      Hello everyone, My 740N gets the power but doesn't stay ON for long. I turns ON for a fraction of a second and then OFF and that keeps happening. The power LED(on the button) keeps blinking while the display is OFF.
      The display does function correctly as when it does turn ON for that fraction I can see everything working fine.

      Before this happened, from past few weeks/month ago it used to take 5-8mins for the display to turn ON. I should have tried to fix it that time.

      When under warranty few years back I think I had a similar problem not sure but that time the Samsung guys had replaced 2 CapXon capacitor(2x1000uF 10v)So I am guessing the rest are the terrible CapXon and might be the problem?

      What is the first step to know what I need to replace? I haven't opened mine yet and checked for bulged capacitors, but I have already bought all the required capacitors from local shops. (from the reference/manual/ebay listings available online)

      My soldering experience is minimal and I have never done any capacitor-PCB soldering that was this critical, hope it goes fine.

      Thank you for the help.

        Open, take pictures, share with the whole class.

        If you can use a soldering iron without stabbing yourself in the eye or setting fire to yourself, you should be fine to do the caps. Take your time.

            Thanks for the vote of confidence.

            Attached are some images.

            Was my first guess, but not sure.

              Yep, those purple ones don't pass the flat top visual inspection, get those changed with some good ones. Change the blue ones while you're at it.

                Change only the bulged ones, fire it up and see how it goes
                My guess is a working monitor

                  Samsung SyncMaster 740n Phase Control Issue
                  by vincentedel
                  Hello,
                  I'm having an issue with the Samsung 740n's phase control setting. When I use the automatic adjustment, it sets the value to around 54 (with a range of 0-100), and the picture looks clear and sharp. However, after some timeβ€”like after playing a gameβ€”the text starts to look blurry. When I auto-adjust again, it may increase the value to 80, and everything becomes sharp once more. Yet, after a while, whether it's a few hours or a day later, the same blurriness returns, and I have to adjust it again.

                  I'm using the Samsung 740n monitor drivers instead of the default plug-and-play...
