[@philgoodson7754]

Well done, you opened ,done nothing and it worked. Such a handy video.....

[@KASPERAB1LD]

Was thinking the same. What a great and informative video.

Thanks for the guide. Was unsure about getting the back off; you showed nicely that it was just a bunch of clips with brute force needed. Crack in the board at the power connector. Had always been iffy since first purchase! Bridged with some solder

[@penelopesaladfingers426]

i had this same problem - sometimes turning it off before i shut down , and turning it on after my pc booted up worked. However, soon after my sitrix soar sound card started to disappear - i changed that out and boom , my monitor now works perfectly - Work that one out !

[@herpaTROBSON]

Mine just committed this atrocity. Warranty went out 3 months ago so i'm just gonna hope and pray that this works for me.

did it work?

@@iamdev3711 unfortunately no. Currently saving up for another monitor.

Didn't work, reseated connections, Checked diodes and nothing, so I googled and found this video showing exactly what I did. This video is at minimum a trouble shooting idea. Thanks anyway

i got an Xb271h and I've taken mine apart twice already and nothing. Will not be buying Acer again that's for sure. 3 years old... Sad cause it was amazing while it worked and honestly never have ever had a monitor break on me before. My LG with no HDMI from 15+ years ago is still working....

[@damjannisevic5071]

Same problem with the same monitor. Junk.

[@NovaTitanProductions]

Yep. Same problem here. Funny thing is it just broke 4 months after warranty expired. They wanted 299.99 USD after taxes to repair a monitor that cost 500 USD new. Yeah, it's a waste so I spent that 300 bucks on a new monitor that has Gsync too.

[@SirEpsilonn]

Fixed mine through this video. Seems like some cable did indeed get loose as I suspected. It "died" while I was moving it across my desk. Am I a tech wizard now?

[@tunkunrunk]

I have a 19 inches pc monitor LG Flatron L1952TQ, when I power it on, I have pictures, but within 2 seconds, the screen fades to white, and eventually, I see no more a thing. I tried cleaning the flex cable that attaches the video board to the LCD with no results

[@rx7godz]

so wait did you just unplug the bored then pluged it back in? my predator just started doing this today

[@tristantries2129]

Yeah that's essentially what I did! If you have warranty though I would suggest you just use that, rather then taking it apart, as this does void your warranty!

[@rx7godz]

Tristan Tries my warranty’s been up there like this pink glue where bored it and it’s like sticking not letting me get the bored out I’m really upset because I got white screen on both my acer predators my last one just did it last night 🥺 I’m just stuck

Why is everyone so lucky with fixes like this, I have the same monitor the 240hz version and its just always white

Hello I have the exact same problem with the exact same screen, what have you done? did you just unplug the power supply from the motherboard? thank you very much I'm counting on you I'm completely blocked; s thank you.

[@tristantries2129]

Hello! I removed all the cables attached to the motherboard to the point where I could remove the board completely (unfortunately my camera cut that part out) I did not go under the PSU shroud at all. I'm not sure exactly what part of my unplug and plug it back in process resolved the issue but I would suspect it was probably one of the display cords connecting the panel to the motherboard. If you still have warranty, I'd recommend just sending it to acer to fix as opening it up does void your warranty!

[@VP-rv2mw]

@@tristantries2129 First of all thank you for answering me it's super nice, thank you for these explanations my screen is still under warranty I contacted the support as you advised me. They will do what is necessary, thank you again :)

[@rossmitchell1534]

Quick question i have done everything disconnected absolutely everything its still under warranty but acer were i am are assholes and wont fix it any other tips im desperate, thanks

[@drew2real]

howd you get it off the stand?

[@tristantries2129]

On the back, there's a button under where the stand connects (on the shroud along where the hdmi port is) just press that and then you can just pull off the monitor

[@MultiGamerClub]

My Acer Predator XB271H died after 5 and a half years now.. And here i am.. Electronics warranty is 5 years in norway so this sucks.

[@SirEpsilonn]

My XB241H lasted for 6 years. Died while I was gently moving it on my desk. I'm pretty sure It's some cable so I'm going to open it up and hope it works. Let's hope for the best.

[@SirEpsilonn]

Update : It's working again. Guess I have a 3rd monitor now.

Sus. Did you really fix it? Or did you fail to fix it an grab another monitor for the vid?
