Monitor Problem

[dudevenezuela]

I have a AOC 17" and it turned all bright , I have send it to a place and they try it to fix it calibrating the flyback. It's ok after calibrate but it is slowing getting brighter (hours or minutes ) until you cant see anything

Do i have to change the flyback ? or buy a new monitor ? or something else?

I would recommend on buying a new moniter. You can get a used 21 inch moniter for $100

Wolfmight; doesen't the monitor have its own power supply (plugged into the wall, that is...)

some psu have a run off for the monitor, to save plugs i think. mines has anyway.

depends.. maybe the wall outlit is damaged

adamp2p, i suggest you plug the monitor in the computer&#39;s power supply unit, rather than the wall. the SMPS gives a much cleaner power output than the wall-plug. Plus all SMPS have a separate inlet for plugging in the monitor. if something has gone bust in this one, it probably won&#39;t help doing this, but it would help with future monitor that you buy.

if you insist on kepping them separate, than a ups won&#39;t be a bad investment either.

Im guessing a SMPS is the PSU ??

Isnt the Input and the output on the back of the PSU connected Parallel ??

[jbrockz]

yeah its the same...SMPS = switched mode power supply

[chinook_apache]

have you the monitor next to a power box or speakers cause the speakers may not be magnetically shielded just a thought B)

[jbrockz]

that adversely effects the speakers not the monitor, to the best of my knowledge
