Re: Viewsonic VX2235 problem with screen staying ON

Yikes no need to get all feisty yet, I was just anxious.
But all right, I'll take those options into consideration, starting with the main boards caps.
Let me know if anyone comes up with any other ideas for this problem, as much as I am willing to replace all the caps, somehow I don't see that being the problem; the previous owner was my friends grandparents, and they used this like once a week, so it hasn't been used to much in its life, but the issue is also why they gave it away.

Seriously, no one has any thing to say?
I woulda though Plain Bill or someone would have jumped on this in a couple hours; I see him post in nearly every post.

Re: Viewsonic VX2235 problem with screen staying ON

Hey, sorry to jack a post here, but I am having the EXACT same issue here.
I have a November 2006 Viewsonic 22" LCD model VX2235WM-3; opened it up, no bulging capacitors, no leaks, no burns, no bad solder joints. (the caps are HERMEI, not the common capXcons that are known to fail)
Mine will turn on cold and stay on for a few hours, after that the screen will go black, the blue power light staying on. I also know it is not an issue with the back-light, I can see the "washed out" look to the screen...
