I recently bought this display off of Craigslist and when I plugged it in I noticed it has some quirks, and I want some advice on how to work them out.
First off, it has a curve in the corners of the picture that seems to fluctuate with brightness. (for example, it's more severe when I have a window open as opposed to sitting on my neutral desktop background)
Secondly, and this has fixed itself, but I want to prevent it from happening again, the screen jitters when it's at anything besides 60Hz refresh rate. According to some literature online it sounds like some dried out capacitors in the power supply. In fact this whole list of problems might be because of bad caps.
Finally, every once in awhile the picture shrinks and grows rapidly a few times before settling in again. This was rather alarming when it happened and I want to know what might be causing it.
I am skilled with electronics and I am familiar with working around high voltage so it shouldn't be much of a problem for me to fix this myself should it come down to replacing components.
