    Gateway FPD2485W goes nuts, cuts off

    Hello,
    I have a Gateway FPD2485W.
    When it's turned on, the logo and the gateway music strum happen but then all the touch tab buttons on the side start blinking erratically. Different menu windows also flash in the lower right corner. The display is dim and rippled. Then it cuts off, the start button turns purple. It has to be unplugged to be restarted, only to repeat these symptoms.
    Thanks for your help.

    Open it up first and check capacitors in power supply board. You probably will find them bloated.

    Cheers, Wizard
