Hey People! This looks to be simple, but no one at eMachine was able to help. When power cycle of the computer or monitor, the screen illuminates for only about a second, then goes blank. With another monitor and computer, I've confirmed that CPU and cable are good. It's definitely the monitor. Before I begin to either finish breaking it trying to fix it before I trash it, I was hoping to get some help. Anyone???
Issue #1: LCD or CRT monitor?
