    magnaox LCD won't turn on

    I have a ten year old magnavox 26mf605w 17 27" LCD television that will not turn on. When you push the power button, the green light comes on and then goes off in about 2-3 seconds. I have checked the capacitors on the Power supply board and there is none that are bulging, cracked, leaking or anything else. I can't see any burn marks or anything else. I don't have a ESR meter, but I'm planning on getting one soon. does anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be? Should I replace the capacitors even though they show no visual signs of damage?

      Usually you get a lot more help if you post in the correct area. Hint: 'Electronics Theory and Troubleshooting; Troubleshooting TVs and Video Sources'.

            MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX (MS-16R6) LAPTOP WON'T TURN ON AFTER RESTARTING
            by RdeveLabs
            To all the members here...

            Let me tell you a little bit about what happened to my laptop (MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX model: MS-16R6) that “maybe” you know how to solve this problem.

            So before this problem happened, my laptop was running smoothly. When I wanted to restart my laptop, it looked fine at first. But after I waited for this restart process to take a long time, until finally I panicked (because the restart process did not finish plus the laptop screen only showed a black screen), I immediately pressed and held the power button to force the laptop to turn off. But...

            Acer Aspire 4520 won't turn on after reboot
            by robante15
            Hello, I have an Acer Aspire 4520 from a couple of decades ago and I want to repair it solely for nostalgia.

            It happens that when I turn it on after having been disconnected for a long time, it turns on without problems, it tells me that the BIOS has been reset and that it will load the factory settings, if I tell it to continue, the computer turns on and everything works fine.

            The moment I turn it off and want to turn it back on a second time, or restart it and try to start it again, it no longer gives an image, and it no longer responds.

            If I remove the...

            Dell latitude e7470 not turn on .power buton on off and Run Power problem
            by masoksian
            Hi everyone,

            I am dealing with the problem of turning on and off my Dell e7470 notebook.

            The battery charge light is solid white, I press the button, the power indicator and the light on the button are solid for 1-2 seconds and immediately turn off.

            The system does not turn on, there is no post.

            I removed the RAMs and changed them, changed the battery, RTC battery, AC adapter, removed them and waited, tried again, it does not turn on.
            The problem continues in the same way.
            I tried to turn on the Fn key, nothing came to the screen....
