This is not a guarantee it will help at all. Not a fix. Helped me.
This actually worked for me. After being heart broken to screen lines showing up in the post, lots of reading lead to hearing it was because of glue coming loose on the wires and disconnecting from the screen as they heat up.
So I left my MPC off for a day. Set this fan behind it, pointed up at the screen (Screen tiled fully).
And look at this..
Not a fix really, but I think it will buy me time to use it. If it holds out this way, I can at least use it without fear of going blank in the near future. Tied me over till I can afford a 2500, or a replacement screen is developed. Which ever comes first.
Being that I was reluctant to even have it on. Delivered and powered up had 2 lines. Over time using it, maybe a few hours, 3 lines.
I think it's worth a shot. You can get them, they are small and all metal (metal case and blades) made by a company PMX (4" PMX Mini High Velocity Fan Model HVRA-4A).
However it is a mystery if this even did it. Perhaps the lines just magically went away and was coincidence. After using the unit 4 hours straight with the fan, no lines.
End of story, it's an inexpensive option. Just like a laptop that overheats, and the GPU lifts off the motherboard, you get a cooling pad for the bottom. I felt perhaps it could be the same ting.
Only time will tell if this really works and for how long. Results realistically will be different for everyone.
Hope this can help ease some minds as it did mine (IF it helps -- Not getting hopes up here)
