I have a GW desktop LCD that died on me some time ago due to
capacitors on the power supply board. They were a cheap Chinese brand
that died due to the fact that the industrial spies that stole the
formula for the capacitor electrolyte got the chemical formula wrong
(no I am NOT making this up).

I soldered in some new capacitors as described in that last link and
the LCD works like new now.
