Hi All
Long time EEVblog viewer since 2014, first time post.
I have had a business in computer industry, since 1987 (importing Apple II peripherals from the USA), then moving to the IBM compatible PC area in the early 1990's.
I currently supply, repair and upgrade Windows based desktop PC's, laptops, netbooks, etc. I also have a vintage (?) computer collection starting from 1980.
The reason for my post is, back the old days, I used a multi-sync, multi-input 14" CRT monitor for my test bench. About 6 years ago I updated to a Dell 2408WFP 24" LCD monitor.
The problem with this monitor (apparently well known) is it will go into sleep mode when receiving no signal (which is annoying when you are constantly powering a computer on or off, or restarting it).
The sleep mode CANNOT be disabled !.
On seeing Dave using the 24" Telefunken I thought maybe there would be a newer replacement for my sleepy Dell.
Can anyone help ?
P.S. To Dave, keep up the repair and teardown videos please, as a trained electronics technician, you have my undivided attention.
