I've got a 17" KDS monitor I bought with my C600 from Small Dog that has been gathering much dust for the past year. It seems the energy saver circuit has gone south--a common problem from what I gather about CRTs. The problem I'm finding is that hardly anybody does monitor work and if they do then its $100 just to open the hood. I suppose most get nervous around the CRT neck and decide that it isn't worth it. To compound this, getting rid of CRTs (or computers, for that matter) is a headache because filling landfills is not a smart thing to do with all this stuff. But I digress.
There should be someone on this list (Jeff? Howie? Dallas?) who knows what the energy saver circuit should like and can provide some landmarks. Or a web resource someone knows about that may have useful info. The monitor works if that failed capacitor can be isolated and replaced. -- Pax, Pastor Mac Made on a Macintosh, of course. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
