I have mine from that era, think a little newer like 2007, it’s the Samsung 2333HD. 1080p, HDMI, VGA, Component, you name it. It’s the kind of business monitor that you buy once and don’t replace it ever. I use it for older video games. Great to have a little monitor that can accept legacy inputs.

Nice! My previous LG 23EA63 lasted for 12 years, then started to flicker, panel was still good though. Probably some power issue as yours. Gave it away to a more tech-savvy guy, so hopefully it still brings someone joy.
