    Viewsonic VS16217 strange problem - white flickering screen on power up

    As per subject, on power up display shows no image, but white
    flickering screen. Strangely, it only happen after power was lost
    when it was on. After power returns - white screen only, but if
    disconnect power for 12-24 hrs, and connect then again monitor
    works normally.

    Any clues how to go about it would be greatly appreciated.

    Take a hair dryer and heat the board up to 40-50C and then turn it on. See what happens…

        Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
        by PantherDave
        Hi all!

        I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

        I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

        HP 15-EH1070wm - Black Screen With Power LED.
        by grimacelord
        Hello,

        I have an HP 15-eh1070wm laptop that came to me for the same reasons I am starting this thread. The charging LED appears when the laptop power adapter is connected and the power LED appears when pressing the power button, but nothing appears on screen.

        First thing I did was take off the bottom panel and remove the battery and then press and hold the power button for 30 seconds and then reinstall the battery and power on. The fan spins and this time, the back light illuminates and a brief message appears on the screen for about 1 second saying something along like,...

        Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Gen 10 - Flickering Screen
        by Ado02
        Hello everyone,

        We recently replaced the OLED screen on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Gen 10. After about a month, the replacement screen began to flicker. Initially, updating the Intel® Iris® Xe graphics driver resolved the issue for about a week. However, when the problem recurred, updating the driver again had no effect.

        The flickering only occurs once the system reaches the Windows login screen. Interestingly, if we disable the Intel GPU driver or connect the laptop to an external monitor, the flickering stops. We have tried installing two different replacement screens,...

        Canon TS8350 Screen Freezes on Power On
        by joaquinmjuan
        Hello, I have a Canon TS8350 printer. The problem is that when I turn it on, "CANON" appears on the screen, but it never goes away. You can leave it on for a whole day, and it doesn't go away. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried unplugging it, but nothing. I've also tried holding down POWER, but nothing. In fact, once it turns on, it can't be turned off with the Power button. I've also held down Power and then plugged it into the Power supply, and the power light flashes once and doesn't turn on, but then when I press Power again, it turns on. Currently, it's a nearly new paperweight,...

        Panasonic Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
        by Alicat
        Hello,

        Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

        Model number is TH-50PZ85U

        Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

        Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

        I also hear a few clicks.

        I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

        Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...
