Re: Acer AT3201W color problem

I have this TV which CAN display a perfect picture, but it's brain is shot and can't remember the settings:

The problem is the U33 eeprom (24LC32A) which apparently writes once per second and is guaranteed for 1 million writes - that's only 277 hours of 'on time' which is a HUGE DESIGN FLAW in the firmware. Supposedly there is an updated 'fixed' f/w, but I can't find it...

The factory menus can be accessed by pressing the [VOL -] and [CH +] buttons simultaneously, and the colour gains and biases (see below) can be altered....

Re: Benq FP767 PS caps

First off...this site rocks!!

I just fixed a free monitor with the help of all you geniuses out there.

$6 for CAPs and about 3 hours total (had to go to 2 places to find the right values) - I just did the 'leaning' and leaking ones, probably about half of them; but I think in the future I'd do them all. I'm handy with the solder and taking apart of things - I wouldn't recommend it to just anybody - you DO need SKILLS.

I'm super-impressed and I saved this monitor from the garbage..!!
