It's hard to identify the capacitors though. Any thoughts on how to do this or where to get them?

Thanks

This is most probably cause by one or more Faulty Electrolytic Capacitors, I find these are the MOST commonest form of "Fault" in these LCD's TFT's units. I ususally simply replace "On Spec" all High Value Electros, in fact ALL Electro's are suspect and often I just "Shotgun" and replace 'em all. Usually fixes all problems. Always use High Temperature Caps. Try this as it is a common problem I find a lot. Good Luck.

I have a Dell desktop. My montor won't turn off. When I turn off the computer, the light on the monitor remains green and then it starts to change color repeatedly-from red to blue to white, etc.

If it works fine otherwise I don't see a problem here. If these lights bother you just turn off the monitor.
