This time you missed at least this part: There should be some capacitors on the main board too. So, did you, Enrique, measured any voltages ???

I am sorry. I really missed it. The next step is to measure the voltage inside the monitor. For starters, at least the ones that are small and safe. For example, on the cable connector between the power supply and the main board.

Do you intend to try to repair the monitor? What is your previous experience with electronics repairs? At least take the cover off. Sometimes (NOT always) a defective component can be identified with the naked eye.

If mobo is defective, then the graphics card could work in one slot and not work in another slot. Even CPU itself could be dead.

This doesn't really matter at all. Try another PSU. Did you measured any voltages?

Your mobo has three PCI-E, but only one is real x16. Does the problem recur with each of them individually? The absolute minimum is: mobo + PSU + CPU + one RAM + graphics. When the CPU, PSU, RAM and graphics have been tested separately, the only thing left is the mobo...

Is it under warranty? Complaint it. If it is older, I'd guess the faulty backlight (hardware issue). (CCFL or LED or their power supply.) The simplest test is to connect a spare display with the same type of backlight and see if it is lit normally.

The simplest test is to touch the warm water with one end of the heatpipe. If the other end heats up very quickly, then the heatpipe works well. You can also compare it to a solid copper wire of the same size or an empty copper pipe. A slightly more complicated procedure is to place the...

Did you remove the dust from the radiator?

What if the heat pipe has lost fluid ?

Are you sure you removed the dust from the radiator?

Try using a German keyboard layout. It has interchanged Y and Z.

You should look at LG Flatron W2243T. A piece that has a broken panel will also be suitable. It has a DVI-D input. Swapping main board could be enough.
