FWIW, I have a 2 year old monitor in the garage that started flaking out
on the bottom bar and just needed a whap on the side would get it to
come back. I am suspecting a no lead ROHS solder causing a bad joint.
My 'old' 2000 Compaq CV715 may not have the latest features, but 'it'
still works and does a nice job of heating the room, good in the winter
but very bad in summers that often hit 110.
I would be suspect of anything newer than about 2 years because of the
'Tin whiskers' problem and crappy lead free joints.
