I just repaired a broken computer screen and I feel totally like a soldering-iron-wielding superhero.
That is all.

PS: Don’t buy an HP vs19e flat screen.

there’s your problem: Your flux capacitor is loose.

Yes, I have the same problem. I finially removed the back cover and saw the 3 caps that are bad. Now I have to find where I can purchase the new ones? (maybe I should have saved my old “Flux Capacitor”)

I bought mine at The Source (formerly Radio Shack in Canada). I know I tried to get as close to this as possible: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102511&cp=&sr=1&origkw=272-1032&kw=272-1032&parentPage=search
The instructions say any capacitor with the rating of 1000uf @ 10v or better should work.
On the bright side: the screen is still working great since I fixed it last October, and we use it every day. I might try it out on the DeLorean one day.

“The Flux capacitor is the device that traditionally fails in a spacecraft or time machine. The purpose is still somewhat unknown; however it seems to follow Murphy’s law in that, at the most awkward moment, flux failure renders escape impossible.”
