Game starts out fine, but after a short time becomes dimmer. I can turn up the brightness and game is fine. I checked all voltages and everything is right on.

It's a 19v2000 monitor, which was recently rebuilt, headers resolder, and new TO3s.

Would this be a big blue problem or something else?

Thanks,
Theron

One more thing that I noticed after I kept the game on for a while is the screen looks like it's pulsating. It goes from normal brightness to dimmer about every second. The screen size is staying the same.

Update: Replace big blue and the pulsating stopped. The screen still goes a little dim after sometime and stays at that level from there on out. Is this just "warming up" process?

Mine does the same thing (the dimming) so I am curious as well. It didn't do it when I bought it so it can't be any warming up.
 
Still curious about the dimming. Anyone of any thoughts on it?

Thanks,
Theron
