Hope I've found the right forum.

My like new Samsung B2430H monitor died after minimal use. Samsung was of no assistance so I'm hoping to repair it myself. The power board is fried near one of the capacitors. If the integrity of the board itself is compromised, is a repair still feasible?

Thanks for any input!

 

From my personal experience Samsung support is very good. My monitor had some dead pixels that were annoying me... I contacted them and they organised for a replacement to be sent within 24 hours by courier. I simply took my monitor off it's stand, took the one out of the box from the delivery guy and placed the one with dead pixels back in the box. Absolutely free of charge and brand new monitor in less than 24 hours for one quick phone call
