Hello, I found this forum browsing about information on how to fix my broken monitor. I am a DIY kind of guy when it's not overly complicated. I hope this leads to positive results. Thanks!

Hello,

I used to play around with electronics back in the early 80's until I got my first computer, at which time I lost interest in soldering and making circuit boards.

Now that my tv has just broken down due to a faulty power supply, I thought I would pick up my soldering iron again, rather than paying someone else to do the work.

Hi everyone,

New to the forum. My name is Nathan and I'm a mechanical engineer working for Boeing up here in Seattle, WA.

My dad is a EE and always had circuit boards / soldering irons laying around so I caught the do it yourself computer bug early.

I've been making my own custom machines for awhile, but I've never chanced to actually pull capacitors off a board until now. With a dead Viewsonic VP930b 19" monitor on my hands, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to jump in and get my feet wet. After my first repair attempt, it is still dead, but I used Radio Shack capacitors, which after reading, seems to be a bad idea?

After my account is enabled, I'll post some pictures and all the details over in the "troubleshooting computer displays" forum!

Thanks,

Nathan
