the screen is very dark; changing the "brightness" setting on the monitor's menu doesn't seem to make any difference. Have I messed up a setting somewhere in Windows XP? Or is it time to buy a new monitor? Thanks for any help!
If you can make out a faint image then the fault is a backlight problem. The fault could be an inverter board or the CCFL lamp/s For service, parts and DIY info check out LCD Parts - click on this link to their WEB site : - www.lcdparts.net

My brand new Apple LED cinema display produces a constant popping sound like others have reported using this display and even with other manufacturer's displays/TVs? Is this truly a heating/cooling issue or is it power supply related?

The buttons located on the front of the monitor are not working nor are they stuck. The brightness display is permanently fixed on my screen and I am unable to remove it. When I unplug the power cord that is attached to the monitor, the brightness display of course disappears, but within half a second it re-appears when I plug the cord back into the monitor. Also, when the brightness display first appeared, it decreased from 100 down to 0 on its own. I am at a loss as to what the problem is or how to solve it.
