CRT Monitor Fades out and zooms in
Hello-
I just got my CRT Monitor out of a three month storage, and am trying to get it to work. I'm pretty sure that it's not a software issue, as I was trying to have two monitors set up. The other monitor works fine, no matter which one I have plugged into which outlet. The bad monitor also doesn't work with different power cables, etc. The problem monitor is a ViewSonic A90f+. Here's what it does: When I turn it on, it will start with a normal picture, but then it will start to literally zoom in as it fades out. This happens within about 2 seconds. Here's a video of what it does: http://www.goshen.edu/~jamesnw/badmonitor.mov. I'm just wondering if this is something that can be fixed (cheaply) or if i just need to throw this thing out. Thanks.

James Sounds like its losing EHT. There is more than one component that could cause this, but either way its not a diy at home simple repair. Its either pay for repair or replace, with replace being more likely. NT |
