Cheers just looked at it, I think I can handle that.

yer i would think the input lag is minimal on most of them due to now scalers and what not and pretty much just pass through

Fairly simple really, i've just never taken a monitor apart before so didn't know what to expect 
there is a guide on the first post of the OCN thread but essentially its just;
1. Take out 8 screws from back
2. Remove front bezel from unit
3. Take out 4 screws holding panel to back bezel
4. Lift up panel and detach 3 cables connected to it
5. Detach the stand
Then do the reverse I just **** myself when I saw one of the cables was just held in place with electronic tape but its been mentioned that this is quite common :S

I just **** myself when I saw one of the cables was just held in place with electronic tape but its been mentioned that this is quite common :SSettled for the Achieva in the end simply because prices for the Multis have gone up by £40-£50 from yesterday so I don't mind paying £10 more for Ahieva's that wont need opening up.
Just gotta tell the seller to send me a Dual Link DVI cable with it and change the Korean plug to a UK one.
Do all these monitors use the same powerbrick connection? (mains to power brick)

They all come with dual link DVI cables anyway and you'll end up with a cheap adapter for the Korean plug.
If the adapter bothers you then just swap the kettle lead for a UK one.

Yeah it's just a power brick which accepts a standard kettle lead into it.

The adapter thing is a piece of **** as well, no wonder they give them away.

Monitor is still working... 
According to my mate his mate just said he repaired the driver board. I'm not going to ask to many questions as it was done as a favour and I don't even know the guy that did it but I imagine it was done in his spare time..
I'm not going to take it apart and have a look as it's working fine now so don't want to tempt fate. It's also bolted back on to my stand.
Just happy it's all working ok again and hopefully will last for Diablo.....
