Default OT computer Q


Mama's computer screen (Acer P191W 19" LCD) is sick ... screen is dim and
flickery. It's been going dark on us lately when waking it up , turn power
off then a few seconds later power on has brought it back - until today . I
have the unit apart , checking the power board for bad caps since that's
listed as a primary cause of monitor problems - found 2 bulged tops , none
leaking . I'll be visitin' the local RS for replacements , and hoping that's
all it needs .
Anybody out there have experience with repairing these ? Would I be better
off looking for a replacement at a yard sale ? We have a small CRT monitor
on it for now so the g-kids can still play their games , but it sure ain't
optimum ...
