I posted this situation in at least two other specialized forums about two months ago but haven't had an answer yet and I'm wondering if here's someone that likes electronics so much that knows where I can search/find the info I seek.
The details are as follows: Monitor brand name=KDS; Model=XFlat Prof. CRT Monitor 786N; Serial #=XF-7b. The ¼Watt resistor that burned out=R754 & is located near the Flyback area of the board. I really would appreciate any help in the right direction that any of you might provide. Thanks in advanced!

Umm...how do you like your hands? Regular or extra crispy?

We don't recommend exploring the innards of a CRT monitor...it is just too risky.

And is saving a little over $100 really worth your life?

Thanks for the advice MJC but I forgot to say that I used to be an electronic technician at a well known computer manufacturer (now extinct). The previous remark means that I'm aware of the risks as well as how to evade them with most electric/electronic circuits. I'm really needing that piece of info...; you don't throw away a car just because the starter motor fried out! You diagnose the problem, find the way to take out the faulty part, install a working unit & hope the conditions that fried the previous one does not exists anymore. Its almost always the same path through the same algoritm.
PS. If anyone has the aforementioned monitor & open it (just for dusting it out --good maintenance procedure) he/she could have a peek and search for the damn resistor, once you located it it does not matter if you can read the color code of it, just note the colors (in any order you like and post them here; I will appreciate it very much!

There are very few things that we just don't discuss on board...and CRT monitors are one of them...you want to talk about it off board, PM or chat room are open for these kind of discussions. It has been a long standing policy here.
