Samsung Syncmaster
Is it possible to replace the backlight in the Samsung SyncMaster 730MW?
My TV/Monitor display has been flickering for a while now ... first almost un-noticeable and only on start up ... but now it flickers so much it is uncomfortable to watch ... and yesterday it just blacked out completely ... although, i turned it off and on again ... and the display was back ... still flickering ...
this morning when i turned it on ... its still flickering quite noticeably. I dont want to have to buy another monitor/tv so i need someone to give a definitive answer as to whether it can be fixed and if it is financially viable to do so ...
Your last statement really gets it.
Yes, it can be done. In fact, it's not even that hard to do.
The problem is that it will cost you about the same amount of money as to simply buy a new one, especially since the price of LCD's keeps plummeting. You might save $50 if you order the parts and do it yourself, but I would still suggest just buying a new one altogether.
