Hi, I have recently purchased an LCD from an office clearout and it's been working wonderfully for the last 2 weeks. However, about half an hour ago it started going bright and dark on the screen and flickering on and off - the power button would go from green to off (not standby) and I couldn't turn it off by pressing that. When I shut down the computer and turned off the power the monitor then began working again, but when loading windows the problem happens again and again.
Now the screen just stays dark, but If i look closely, I can see the RGB test card move diagonally up-right the screen. When I load up windows now I can just about make out bright white objects like balloon tips.
So it looks like the LCD backlight is broken right? But I thought there are two back lights in a screen, and does this mean both are broken (or one broke a long time ago)?
How can this happen, usage, surge current etc
Could it be the inverter - bad power problems.
How does one fix such a problem. attempt a repair or easier to send it back?
Thanks
Thomas
