Thanks for the great post on

Thanks for the great post on the bad capacitors!! My monitor (Gateway LP2207) was going out after 2 seconds was due to bad electrolytic capacitors. I opened up my monitor and saw three swollen electrolytic capacitors. I went to RadioShack and bought new 35 volt ones with the same values. I desoldered the bad ones, resoldered the good ones in and then put everything back together (quite the grueling job! - make sure you look on YouTube on how to take this monitor apart. This will really help). Connected it up and now works great!
