[image|2171928]I’ve got two 22” Apple Cinema Displays M8149 that I recently acquired. One for $20 and the other for free off the street on garbage day. I was hoping to test both with my PowerMac MDD DP 2003 but for some unknown reason it would not boot up even though I replace the PRAM battery and did all the suggested fixes. Eventually remembered that my PowerMac Dual G5 also has an ADC Video Card. So I booted it up and tested on monitor #1 and it came up fine initially. Then left center had vertical banding (alternating pinkish vertical line, vertical line no issue, and alternating back and forth). It seems the monitor warmed up and then the video issues occurred. Then using the same PowerMac I tested monitor #2. It also started up with no issues and I waited a few minutes , but still no issues. Waited 10 minutes and still no issues. Has anyone experienced this issue? Have any solutions? Is it the logic board for the monitor or something? It’s not the video signal.

This free M8149 off the street on garbage day is having some issues.[br]
+
I’ve got a few computers I was going to test this with.[br]
+
[br]
+
Power Mac DPG4 2003, Power Mac DPG5 7,2 2004 and Mac Pro 1,1 2006.[br]
+

+
Unfortunately the Power Mac DPG4 2003 isn’t booting up anymore. :([br]
+
The Mac Pro 1,1 2006. only has DVI video.[br]
+
However, I forgot the Power Mac DPG5 7,2 2004 has both DVI and ADC video.
+
+
Was able to boot it up with the Power Mac DPG5 7,2 2004 and it initially booted up clean, but after a few minutes which I assume the boards warmed up I got the vertical bands. I’ve been told after further research that this could be an issue with the TCON Board since it’s not horizontal lines.[br]

The left center has vertical banding (alternating pinkish vertical line, vertical line no issue, and alternating back and forth). The right side appears to have the same thing, but at times will temporarily disappear and then reappear.
