This morning I sat down to jump on POA and shoot at some internet mans and I found that my monitor wouldn't turn on anymore.
The manufacture date was March 2009 which is a good run for a monitor. I had to return the first one my dad and I picked up from Best Buy. I have already tried a different power source and different power cable to no avail. I will remember all of the images, web sites, stories, and players cut down in all of the games I have played over the past 10 years.

The on switch is a light/touch sensor. The red light was on when I sat down, toggled it and now nothing. The back of the cover says "No user servicable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel". I have built computers but I don't know much about circuit boards and soldering and troubleshooting.
Not sure whether I should try to get it fixed, fix it myself, or let it move on and find another one with the same or better specs.
