Default Stupid fucking monitor...

So, about 14 months ago I shelled out $240 for a Tyris 1901DB LCD monitor. Come home from work today, and the monitor is powering up/powering down, etc. Plugged an older monitor into the PC, works fine (Although this 15" screen sucks balls.)

I'm assuming that the problem is in the power supply, so I guess my question is whether it's worth repairing, given electronic repair rates?

I hope someone with a better clue than I have can hep me out...

Guessing it only came with a 12 month warranty? Even so, it might still be worth calling the manufacturer's support. Sometimes they let it slip by a month or two. Nothing ventured nothing gained eh.

Yeah, of course it's only a year warranty.

Good point though; thanks, Chris.
