There is a field of capacitors on the power board that usually goes bad. I believe that there is a total of 6. When you look at the power board you should notice them.

Hello,
You have a monitor with a common problem. After a few years some LCD monitors
will blow a power supply. The problem is caused by parts called
capacitors overheating in the confined space of he monitor. If you are
good at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix he problem. Check out a few pictures on my web site www.ccl-la.com/badcaps.htm
You can take the back cover off your monitor and look for the bad parts,
replace any that look like the pictues and your monitor should work
fine. The capacitors do need to be installed with the correct + and -
connections, note the stripe on the old one and insert the new one the
same way. If you don't want to try the repair yourself we offer a repair service for $35 plus shipping. If you don't see any bad capacitors then the next thing would be bad CFL (backlight tubes) in the screen itself. If it is that then the monitor needs to be replaced because of the tech skills needed to replace then. I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

You said it correct the fluorescent bulbs are going bad, unfourtunately the are part of the screen (panel).
to replace the panel make sure you get the exact part # from the panel inside rear and check prices online and on ebay.

SOURCE: Monitor Problem
That is because your computer is trying to display a picture at a higher resolution than the monitor can handle
EG. if your monitor was only capable of lets say 800 x 600 and you decided to try force it to display 1680 x 1260 your monitor would do one of three things
try but die doing so
switch itself to sleep or standby mode
scream at you that its "OUT OF RANGE"
The H & V numbers are horizontal and vertical frequencies sometimes it is possible to use the monitors own OSD to change these but please check in the monitor manual before you do so.
Your best bet is to start your computer in safe mode and re-set the resolution to something a little more in the range of the monitor and then try re-boot.
