support thread lol, anyway i found the dell 17inch lcd monitor by the curb and i already knew it was broken but i still took it, well i took it home connected cables and shit. and the monitor comes on but its a blank white screen and i cant even access the on board option /comp/ help me out
Seriously, if it was an easy fix do you really belive that someone would have thrown it out? geez...
Otherwise - if you've already checked the obvious, youre going to need to open that one up. Typically for white-blanked LCD's the LCD itself is not getting a signal. So that should give you a start. (btw, dont zap yourself)

Hey, ease up. People are fucking idiots. You wouldn't believe the shit I've found on the side of the road because people were too goddamned stupid to diagnose the problem properly. I once picked up a full Dell system that the user threw out (presumably because Windows would not boot). I reformatted the HD, installed a fresh copy of Windows, and bam. Free fucking computer.
