Fun fact: I have actually worked as an LCD repair tech. I opened the case up and there's some suss as shit crap in there - the pressure plates holding the LCD layer to the light panel were not outside the metal plate at the back of the whole shebang, but jammed between them. Which is quite hard to do without opening the case and rescrewing them. So it looks like a very dodgy refurb.

Everything else works, so it's just a 22" LCD screen needed...I think I shall hit up a mate and arrange refunds.
