I have looked everywhere for over a year.
I have 3 - 25" IPS HP monitors. 2 of them stopped working just after a year. I am assuming I either need to change the CCFL or the capacitors. I want to open them but there is no front bezel really. The whole front of the monitor is glass with the exception of the bottom bezel. Here is an image of the same monitor someone else posted so you can how its all glass.

Can anyone direct me on a video or article showing how i take this glass off that seems to be glued. I took the screws out of the back but no luck.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ooh my goodness thank you so much!!! I never would have thought to slide it up and have the tabs lol. So I got it open and the capacitors look perfect in both monitors. the side LEDs look fine, I think. One monitor wont go on at all. I use the same power supply cord on the other monitor (same make/model) and it will not go on takes three times then I get the screen on ( it on as dim as possible) but it lasts all of 20 seconds. Then the screen goes black, but the power light is still lit. I'm confused. At least on the other one the power never goes on at all. What's your thoghts?

Once inside the monitor you are very much at some board/component levels. Down into the weeds....

And any or all remaining warranties are lost.

As for some particular problem: maybe a blown fuse or failed switch perhaps.

Aside from obvious problems such as burn marks, broken wires, loose connections, wires touching, missing screws, etc. you will need testing equipment to look for shorts, check voltages, current flows, and so forth with respect to the board or component technical specifications. Some items may even need to be removed to be properly tested.

You may or may not be able to swap boards or some individual components between the monitors. Take parts from one monitor to test/repair the other monitor would be one approach.

In any case you risk damaging a good component due to some other problem that originally damaged its counterpart in the broken monitor.

So if you have nothing to lose or otherwise at risk then some methodical swapping may work.

From a more serious viewpoint you need the technical schematics and some methodical troubleshooting process therein to match symptoms and gross test results to narrow down to a specific board or component as identifiably bad.

The time and expense to do such things is why (unfortunately) that it is often cheaper to just buy new versus repair.

Please tell us which model helped you. There are hundreds, it's dreadful.
I have a Philips 223V7QHAB/00 Monitor, frameless bezel and no screws on it.
The problem is the glass detached itself on the upper side and right side. It has 4 mm lines on all sides that seemed to have been glued by the inside part and now the led's light shines through the unattached edges. It's a bummer. Any ideas?
