I know about bad capacitors, but wanted to know for sure is this common
problem with all ViewSonic models, and does it result in this kind of problem
- waiting for several minutes for screen to light up.

have found service manual for my model on net, and wondering to replace bad
caps my self.
but also was wondering to replace bad caps with little higher voltage
capacitors.
for example 50uF 20V to replace with 50uF 40V.
could this produce some problems or to go with this plan!?

but first need new monitor (how else to read service manual),
and funny thing I have found exactly same model for free,
only difference second one was sitting 5 years in box LOL
need only to drive to uncle to get it
