dsrtrcr: on a second note. lcd screens are so cheap at c-city and c-usa, id just buy one off the shelf and save the time. unless you got a room full of extra parts and equipment for bench testing, all that time you spent tinkering is, well,.... wasted time. how many hours have you already spent removing the tubes and inverter? how many days will you be w/o a screen while you send it out for testing?
Well I am doing this at work and in all honesty it took me maybe 5 minutes to take it apart and find the parts and put it back together (Very easy). I am pretty handy and can get things like this done farily quick. PLUS I wanted to try and fix it becasue I like challenges and working on new things. I already have a new monitor. This was just for fun and learning.
