Darren Lloyd start with this " Partially dim screen
This symptom indicates a problem with the inverter or backlight bulbs (on the side of the display that is dim), or related cables or connectors. "This may be caused by the backlight bulbs or the inverter not working properly."
1. Plug the display into a known-good computer with a known-good video card and ADC display port. Boot the computer.
2. Notice whether the power button on the display is flashing, two short flashes then a long flash, in a delayed repeating pattern. This indicates trouble with either the inverter, backlight bulbs or related cables or connectors (this indicator may not always be exhibited). With this in mind, continue with the troubleshooting steps to determine the problem.
3. Warning: The inverter board generates high voltage when the display is plugged in. Do not touch the inverter board components, pins or connectors, when the display is connected to the computer.
Disconnect the display from the computer, then open the display and check for secure connections at CN1, CN2, CN3, CN4 and CN5."
Sorry, there are no parts inside the panel that can be replaced. Hope this helps, good luck.

Could you post an image of this on here. Sounds like a bad display.

Hi Guys, Thanks for the tips, left it unplugged for a week and then it appears to have restarted back to normal. First tried it on a PowerMac G5 1.6Ghz with inbuilt ADC card, and when it ran for a week or so error free, then transferred back on my desk linked via MBPro 17" with the ADC to DVI Adapter. The power button was not flashing on restart, so that was a good sign. I'll test it for a while and hopefully the trouble stays away.
Thanks for all your help
