Re: Samsung Syncmaster 2333SW Flickering

Quick post to link a short video I made of exactly what my monitors are doing and making sure this problem is indeed called washing out and not something else: [url]http://youtu.be/5VrvU5ZzUNE[/url]

If this is not washing out then please correct me. This occurs pretty much immediately once the monitor is powered on. After a while, around 10 minutes or so, the image starts to show better but flickering from a darker image to a brighter image rapidly until the image is finally displayed as [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/p...

My problem for both monitors is the display washing out like some kind of special effects from the late 1970s and on some bright colorful images all pixels go black (backlight clearly still on when messing with it at night).

I've found that if I leave the monitors running for at least 10 minutes to 'warm up' then quickly turn it off then back on a few times then it'll work fine as long as...

Re: Samsung Syncmaster 2333SW Flickering

Hate to bring up an old thread, but I have the exact same monitor (two of them) and they're exhibiting the exact same problems. One of them is currently worse than the other of which today I just took it apart and examining the two boards trying to determine which capacitors are bad. Just like in your pictures none of the capacitors visually appear to have failed.

Mr Bill, am I understanding you correctly that you replaced all the capacitors on the power board and it made no improvement? If so did you try replacing all the capacitors...
