I have an old 17-inch (approximate)HP CRT computer monitor gathering dust in my bedroom. It works, but the raster no longer fills the screen and I'm thinking at least one filter capacitor may have gone bad in the power supply, since the raster also seems to have a bend in it, not unlike what happens in old TVs when 60Hz hum gets into the video. I no longer use the monitor for that reason and because I now have an HP flat panel monitor in my computer system (Dell Optiplex 755, HP-832C printer). I am half thinking of discarding the old HP monitor since I have no use for it any longer, such as it is and because it is just sitting on an old desk in my bedroom taking up space.
