the monitor wont come on at all but when i move the power cord (that is plugged in the bottom of monitor) it flashes lights on and and off briefly and the led around the power button does too.

i thought that it could be a simply fix , but after taking it all apart i find the power board has a brown burn mark on it

heres a pic of it
5


can anyone give me some tips on what could be wrong or confirm that the brown burn spot is what's wrong.?
or do i have to buy a new board or even a new monitor?

i know its not the computers fault bc just two weeks ago it was my main computer , and my brother who gave the monitor to me said it took a long time to come on before it didn't come on at all.
