Hi,

Does anyone have or know how to get a schematic for a ViewSonic E790? Here are some details:

Final assembly manufacturer: ViewSonic
Model number: E790
EDID model number: E790 - VSC4D4D
Internal parts manufactured by LG Electronics
Internal chassis model number 4814TKK083

19" (17.7" viewable) CRT monitor

Cheers,
James

 

There are plenty around to buy - search google.

 

I have been looking, but there seem to be a lot of false hits or "bait and switch" links from search aggregators. Most of the time it is just the user manual or it is a schematic for something completely different. I have not had any luck for this particular model - free or paid.

 

This is the cheapest I found but I have no experience of using this site so buy at your own risk.

Great article from Wired about shady websites that sell manuals. Actually, it's about shady manufacturers that hide manuals, but it also addresses the ecosystem created for suspicious characters like www.user-manuals.com.

They don't have any reviews from any reputable sources, so I'm inclined toward skepticism.
