Re: 245bw with crazy colors

actually, i think i was just having some bad luck, i started to mess around with the ribbon cable that has the black "bar clamp"(dont know the technical term), that secures it and the monitor would go to all white to black to black green every time i would power down/reboot/retry. Once i got it to "black"(with no green or white distortion), i wiggled all the other plugs and it started working properly.

"1000UF 10V NICHICON RADIAL ELECTROLYTIC", ordered them off ebay, after replacing the 2 caps and resistor it fixed the "power buttons light up, but nothing on the screen" problem, but now i get the funky colors.

The only issue i have now is that that colors are messed up, alot of green and black when windows boots, and just messed up colors once i get to the desktop. I have tested the monitor on multiple machines and with multiple cables, so i know the problem still lies within the monitor.

Is this a sign that i should replace the other 2 resistors even though they tested fine?...
