    2 monitors same symptoms

    I have 2 19" wide screen mags.
    Both show red on everything that should be white.
    And also have 2 seconds to black.
    I have not seen this yet.
    I will post pictures as soon as I can.

    Sounds like bad CCFLs,remove the panel connection to confirm , you should get 2 sec white screen but you will probaly get the red hue because of bad CCFLs

      I have 3 proview with the same problem. CCFL lamps need replacing. Any one know where I can get some at a good price, the best I can find is £7.50 + Vat, 4 required Total £35 + Del.

        I'm not sure what the exchange rate is, but one eBay seller (LCD_Parts_Direct) is selling CCFLs (any diameter and length) for $7.98. The IMPLY that they will ship multiple CCFLs for the $7.99 shipping fee. You would have to decide if they actually can supply the parts at a reasonable cost.

          I've seen Pink hue, not red. But the decoloration (soft red->pink... same stuff...) and the 2 seconds to death point to CCFLs ...

                  Pioneer RM-07 Active monitors cutting out from time to time
                  by BigOof
                  I have a pair of Pioneer RM-07 monitors that I bought a while ago. When I was testing them I noticed that one speaker would cut out and I thought it was just a bad cable connection. At the price they were being sold for I was willing to take a risk on them. However, 6 months later and the one monitor still has the same issue. Most of the time it works, but there are times that the power LED is on but I get absolutely no sound. I can hear the relay clicking on/off sometimes and then it will/won't work depending on what it feels like. I've tried XLR and RCA inputs with the same issue. There's no...

                  RX570 dies completely, then recovers.
                  by fiveseventy
                  Hello all,

                  I have a Sapphire Radeon RX 570 Pulse ITX 4GB (single fan) which has started misbehaving recently.
                  The card was bought used maybe 5 years ago and has worked without issue until recently.
                  I have no reason to believe it has been worked on or physically damaged.


                  For periods of time it will be 100% perfect.
                  Perfect temperatures, no glitches or artefacts, solid FPS.
                  I can game, run benchmarks, do whatever without any problem.
                  I can reboot the machine as many times as I like and nothing changes

                  however, most times...

                  How to connect 6 monitors to a PC?
                  by buchman
                  Hi,
                  I built an AMD PC and I have GTX 1070ti graphics card with only 4 outputs to 4 monitors, I want to connect 2-3 more monitors, what are the cheapest options do I have?

                  Vizio M60-C3 multiple symptoms leading to death
                  by ossroy
                  Initially, I had an issue last winter where, when the room was cold, the TV came on but continuosly scrolled through the inputs. Slapping the back of the lower left where the KB board and light are would solve things until the room warmed up and things worked fine.

                  Then recently it started coming "on" but no picture, just backlight. Turning it off and on again fixed things. Then it got worse, where I'd have to cycle power several times to get picture. Then I got the dimming light and sometimes flashing after dimming. Again, cycle power a few times and it would eventually...
