SOURCE: How can i open the body or case to repair of hp

well being as how i just did this five minutes ago I can help:) The back of the monitor has a thin panel like a sideways 8 or a bean shape...this pops off then you have to take out the screws holding on the base once you get that off you can lay the monitor flat <carefully> and pop the outer black frame off <every so often along the seam you will see little gaps stick a thin flathead in if it's to tight for you carefully not to scratch or break it is plastic!> then you will see the metal case and find the screws on the sides and your there! Good luck!

More likely to have power supply failure due to bad DC filter caps.

If you are going to DIY and already try the monitor with another PC, and have proper tools and know safety precaution then please read on:
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply (they should be replaced in a set), blown fuses; poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed HP monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/yy352/budm/
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.
