I have a CMV CT-712A, Model A170E1-OA flat screen monitor.
Recently, the power supply of the computer to which it was connected blew up. There was a bang & flash from its switching mode power supply unit (PSU) when I turned the mains power on.
When I connected the monitor to another computer, it showed a few lines on the screen when it was first switched on, and then a blank screen. I tried it with another computer - same result.
So it would appear that the PSU failure has caused a voltage spike on the computer's supply line(s) and this has damaged the monitor via the data cable.
Has anyone experienced this? If so, were you able to fix the monitor?
I have not tried to fault find yet, I want to await responses to this enquiry first.
Any advice will be appreciated.
