So last week I purchased this monitor in hopes to use it to play ps2 via the composite connection and also to use as a 2nd monitor. There's no picture issues using the dvi and vga signals. However when using the s-video or the composite connections the picture would be somewhat noisy (see pics.)

Anyone own this monitor and is it normal to have this much noise using the s-video and or composite? If this isn't normal, could it be related to bad caps?

Thanks....

Re: Insignia NS-LCD32

Well, I just picked up the NS-32LCD a few days ago. Same symptoms: power on but no screen. It seems they tried to fix it but were unsuccessful and decided to toss it. They replaced a few of the caps with some weird brands and seems to be in spec. I was lucky to have a 47uf in my parts bin which did the trick. Screen fired up nicely.

Thanks for the replies. I ordered the parts including the 100uf the day before Player2 replied XD. That's good to know that the 100uf should be okay. Since I already got the parts, I just replaced all of them except the Panny FJs. Computer seems to be working fine for my typical normal usage.

To mcdaydavies: Are you saying the nforce chipset will die or the mosfets due to the heat from the nforce chip? Unfortunately my case doesn't have support for a fan blowing on that copper heatsink. In fact my case actually sucks. It's poorly designed for...

Hello, I'm new to all of this, so bare with me.
My personal history with this board: I would like to say this mother board was a pain. I remembered building my computer when this board was first released. The first two boards wasn't able to boot dual channel memory, only as single channel. They were made in Taiwan. I returned them and noticed on the shelves that there was also another batch made in China. I picked this one up and it booted into dual channel memory fine. After a year, I noticed the caps getting bulky and some leaking brown stuff, but I kept using it. Now after 6-7 years...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello, I'm from southern California, been living here my whole life. I stumbled on this site when googling for a fix to my viewsonic monitor. It turned out to be a blown fuse and is now working. I took a career course this year and the tests results said that one of the careers that I would enjoy working is being an electrical/electronic technician. So this site will help me alot since I don't know much about fixing electronics.
