Same here - I've had my SyncMaster 226BW for roughly 15 years now and it's still a great monitor, but a few years back I had to replace one of the capacitors after the screen would turn "on" but had nothing on the display. Did the same thing with a Dell monitor a few months back that I use as a second display. I am guessing that bad caps are the single biggest point of failure on monitors.
There's also a YT video showing troubleshooting on an LCD TV down to a bad multilayer ceramic cap. Used a microohm-meter to identify the shorted cap without replacing all of them.
