Re: Samsung 305T - Video Distortions

Thanks to several guys helping out via PM - thanks so much!

It worked!!! Disassembled the 305t plus, removed the board with the Altera chip. Baked it in a normal convection oven that was pre-heated to 200° celsius (baked for 8 minutes). Let it cool down for over an hour. Reassembled and reconnected... et voila - perfectly working monitor again!
Priceless! =)

Re: Samsung 305T - Video Distortions

Hi there!

First wanted to thank all of you guys for this great valueable resource of vast problem fixing knowledge ... unfortunately I've got the same 305t (plus) problem as many here had/have. After nearly 3 years the monitor already exhibited the same problem (green "pattern" noise/lines) and got repaired/replaced within warranty. But now a good year later, after warrranty ran out, the same problem re-appeared.
From what I gathered I'm very certain it's the same Altera chip/solder problem...

While...
