Question Monitor went "pop"

Hi folks

my Dell tft monitor has gone "pop" and stopped working. Anyone know if they are repairable? I've opened it up and looked at the circut board and power input and nothing seems blown. The looks like there should be a fuse somewhere as the circut board has an inscription about replacing fuse with same rating but nothing like a normal fuse (glass tube with fuse wire in)

Re: Monitor went "pop"

If it's a crt monitor leave it along, bad news. The voltage in there is extremley high and will knock you across the room, you may not even survive!!!!.
If your sure it the monitor and not the video card i would get a new one, they are reasonable cheap and i bet the colour on your has gone off over time. Same if it's a flat screen, they are not normally worth repairing.
