If the problem is same with different input devices and you have ensured there are no loose contacts in power outlet, RC jack, cable and sockets, the TV needs servicing.

The problem is with the power supply module of the TV. This is a separate electronics module that is easy to disconnect and take out once the back has been opened.

The specific source of trouble in the power supply module are bad electrolytic capacitors. If you are capable of replacing these capacitors, the parts will only cost you between $30 and $50, depending on where you buy them. Unfortunately all the capacitors have to be replaced, unless you have the equipment and the patience to check each one seprately.

If you are handy with a soldering iron, and are comfortable performing basic electronics repairs, it is relatively simple to do this yourself.

Only two words of caution: please note the voltage rating of the original capacitors and ensure that the new capacitors have the same or higher voltage ratings. Secondly, the power supply unit can contain dangerous voltages if the repair attempt is made soon after the TV has been unplugged. Ideally, leave the TV unplugged overnight before attempting this.

Better still, have someone more experienced do this for you.....once you tell him/her what needs to be done.

If you are really into these things, while the back has been removed, re-route the power cable to avoid having it run past the input connectors. This is what introduces that annoying buzz in the speakers.

Good luck.

SOURCE: Astar 32'' LCD - anyone have monitor drivers?

I purchased this model

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16889114016

and have been able to get 720p and 1080i resolutions on DVI connections from my PC with both Intel and ATI graphics AND 1920x1200 resolution over VGA from the Intel integrated connection (the ATI has only DVI). You need to dump the EDID to see what resolutions and timings the TV is telling the video card it supports. Then you need to get a video card driver that allows for custom resolutions to be created. First download this free utility and post the output: http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm

Hello, I worked for Astar Company before they are closing down. Any model of the Astar TV. Please call me 323-767-6030 and I will go through the trouble shooting, with you.

Hello former Astar guy... are you still around? I have two LTV-32ASB TV's that have failed with the same problem... they have sound but no picture after being turned on for a while. I'm assuming the LCD controller board is the issue, but maybe you know better. Is the LCD controller the "main board"? Any idea where I might find this part, or whatever part it is that I need? Thanks.

There is more than one problem with. A it could be the main board that finally gave out. B the power board in your TV is not work, and now you can see a picture. Depending on how it's connect the screen could be burn out. but just what type of light comes on when you try to turn it on. if the green light comes on and stay on then it has to do with the picture not the power if you need help narrowing down the problem you can call 226-2211 My E Discounts.

Verticle lines on screen

This is a very easy fix. Your cable box is not grounded correctly. To fix this you need a AC Plug adapter. This will change your TV ac plug from a 3 wire to a 2 wire. This may sound funny, but trust me on this. I have fix a lot of TV in NY doing just this.24001fc.jpg
