Now plug the brick into the monitor: red light on it for a few seconds, then either a) i don't plug anything else, the red red starts to flash on and off ; or b) i plug a confirmed working dvi cable coming from a known-good running rig to see the light stop flashing, turn green, see the screen power on (it turns from the no power black to more led like black. I think you get what i mean. Up to this time, my usual desktop would appear and that is the way it behove since i bought it back in last August), see the screen go off after half a second, and watch the light return to red-flash state.

I had a guy at work (the electronic technician we call when our many-hundreds-thousands $ start going crazy) open it up and it confirmed that there is power in it and the problem seems to be in the little pcb in it.

Could this be bought anywhere? Contacting the seller led to being asked to ship back to korea, wich would cost in the 400-500$ range according to my estimator. That is not going to happen.

I'm asking here in hope of finding people who have gone through some trouble with their screen, and what exactly could be the option of a canadian fellow when things go sour...

I say thank you to the TPU community in advance, as i know this place (the whole tpu forums) is just awesome.
Open it up and post a well lit picture showing the caps on the power PCB
