Checking good or bad Capacitor?

I have a Visio television that the picture went out. I've looked at the circuit boards and can't seem to tell if any capacitors have gone bad. I have a Capacitor/ESR meter. How can I check to see which one is bad?

ANSWERS:

Google "bad capacitors" > images. Look for ones with swollen tops and/or leakage

Normally if you have a bad cap. the top of it will bulge. If all your caps are flat on top, it's highly unlikely that's the problem
