Hello everyone, as always I'm learning something new. I recently aquired a HP 17" CRT monitor (flatscreen, quite pretty). When turned on the picture was crisp and clear, for about 5 minutes. Then the picture started to get wiggly (tech term here) and then white smoke. I just now pulled it apart, and have found 1 bulging electrolytic cap, and 3 unknown shrivled parts. They look like capacitors, but I cannot find any ratings on them besides part numbers that haven't yielded any results when I was searching.
If pictures are down, it'll just be temporarily.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide me. By the way, the monitor no longer powers on, but I can hear something ticking (about half-second intervals) from the powersupply area.
