Tuning up a Dell M992 CRT monitor
About this video
A free 19 inch Dell M992 CRT monitor, built by Samsung in 2002, arrives filthy and beaten up, and Adrian's Digital Basement sets about tuning it up.
Good to know: The tube and flyback hold a high voltage charge after unplugging. A knocked or cracked tube can implode, so protect your eyes and never lift it by the neck. Mains voltage is inside the set as well.
Why watch it
The verdict is hedged: the maker thinks the monitor has been nursed back to health but stops short of calling it fixed, and apologises for recording glitches near the end.
