Both monitors are a Samsung SyncMaster 204B.


Thank you for supplying the maker and model number.

This might be of interest:

I've seen both problems on the bench with similar Samsung models. *

My usual method is to replace *ALL* the large value electrolytic
capacitors. *The labour is less to do it at one time, than to spend
any time finding which one or two is the culprit. *Make sure you buy
105C or 125C replacement caps as the 85c variety don't last. *Larger
values and voltage ratings are fine, but watch out for package sizes
and lead spacing.

This is great info; thanks. The website links you found refer to the
problem as "flickering". Is that the condition my monitor has, given
the video I posted?
