I was using my PC earlier when my display (Dell 3008wfp) just went dead, and now shows no signs of life. I have tried another known good power cable, but nothing.

A quick look around the web seems to indicate that Dell wont be of any help (as it is outside the warranty period and they don't offer a repair service). It also shows that the likely fault is with the power board.

Does anyone know of a repair service who might be able to take a look at my display and possibly fix it. I paid a grand for this display and until now it has been faultless, I would rather not have to drop another grand on a replacement.
 
Nice post Banano. Going to see if I can find anyone handy with a soldering iron, as my own skills are not up to the task.
 
ZOMFG!!"£!

Finally got somebody to do the soldering this afternoon, and I'm currently sat in front of a fully working and operational (battlestation) 3008.

Mega thanks to Banano for the Diode. :D

I'll post a pic of the working screen when I get home!
