ADVENT 7211 Inverter Issue or not?!?!?

This unit's screen is barely visible (You can just about make out the windows logo on boot up). It works ok when connected to another monitor. The inverter has been replaced with the same fault? It has been to a repair shop who say it may be a micro switch of some sort??? I think it's just the screen.....Any ideas please? Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

Well from that description you do not appear to have much faith in the repair companies diagnosis!

So, why do you think they are wrong?
Do you have a spare screen to try?
Can you test the micro-switch function?

Hi

I didn't say they were wrong, but when they say it may be .........'or something', well that doesn't bode well! I don't have a spare screen and I wouldn't know how to check the functionality of the switch......hence my post.
