Re: Sceptre X22WG-1080p monitor not staying backlit, Please Help!
Nevermind... Upon reassembly (AGAIN!) I got the blue power light, and then it went about it's flashing off and on with no screen flicker or anything. Just as I was about to set it aside, I looked down and had an idea. I had a spare PC sitting next to my main rig that I was redoing Windows on. I pulled the video cable from that monitor and plugged it in to this Sceptre and the damn screen fired right up and looks to be working perfectly. I'm not sure what just happened, but I'll take it.

Re: Sceptre X22WG-1080p monitor not staying backlit, Please Help!
When I was looking these up, there seems to be 2 different inverter boards that were put in this model of monitor. Mine is the 511GP just like the guy above posted pics of his boardLeave a comment:

I'll try to get pics tomorrow
On a side note, not one of the caps that I did replace on the inverter board was popped, domed or leaking any funky crusty fluids.Leave a comment:

I have this same monitor and there's not even the slightest flicker when I plug it in. Every cap on the inverter has been replaced. The power light comes on (no screen flicker) and then proceeds to flash on and off. There is no high pitched whining or ticking sounds coming from the inverter or any other piece.
Is it possible that the screen itself is blown out or is it the backlight on the inverter board?Leave a comment:

High Pitched Whine - Antec Power Supply
I recently aquired an [url=http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817103936]Antec SmartPower 2.0 450W Power Supply[/url]. Although the power supply does work, it makes a very high pitched, low volume whine and the outer fan will not work.
I removed the supposed bad fan and when plugged in to the motherboard, it works fine, just not when it's in the power supply itself.
Looking closely at the board and caps, I did find a 2200uF 10v cap that was slightly domed, so I removed it and looking closely, it's broken open very slightly on the top as well. I... -
Re: Gateway FPD1530 works for a second then dark
I ended up just chucking the monitor to the recycling center. I replaced the caps and still nothing. Now back to trying to fix the little Dell 17"Leave a comment:

Re: Gateway FPD1530 works for a second then dark
That explains alot... I have a completely different board in mine. In fact, the power wire and video cable are soldered right to the boards. No connectorsLeave a comment:

Re: Dell E172fpb
I have plenty of different capacitors to mess with, so I may just replace the main ones then just to see. I always thought they had to be domed or corrodedLeave a comment:

I can't find anything that resembles the 2 you mentioned. I must be blindLeave a comment:

Re: Gateway FPD1530 works for a second then dark
I don't have any knowledge of how to test things or what readings go with what. I don't have anything to test with either. I mainly was asking what the two 1Uf caps mcfischer was referring to when I first posted in this thread.Leave a comment:

OK... I see how it's done now. I thought I had to add the image from the attached files to the text area with the IMG tags or they wouldn't showLeave a comment:

Re: Gateway FPD1530 works for a second then dark
I did crop the pics down to a 1200x800. I thought the board would automatically resize them to a small size and make them clickable to a larger size....Leave a comment:

Re: Dell E172fpb
I know nothing of what you just said. I'm not an electronics guy. I can pick out crappy or broken solders and domed capacitors and replace them, but not much else. I'm lost beyond that unless someone pointed to what to replaceLeave a comment:
