Tony:

Thanks for humoring me.  At this point I would suggest ~not~ plugging
that thing in again.  Your luck may run out and you could fry something
important.

Touch NOTHING inside any monitor unless you are qualified.

Turn it upside-down and shake it gently.  I any thing rattles you might
consider opening the monitor and just letting it fall out.  If turning
the monitor upside-down does not result in any noises, I'd say there is
nothing for you to do but take it to a person who repairs them.  Now it
gets to be a case of the monitor value versus the repair cost.  You do
the math.

Sorry I can't do any better.  Maybe someone else on the list might offer
different ideas.
