Subject: need some compu-help for compu-dope by CorvetteBob on 2011/4/28 15:48:31 Hi gurus, hopefully you can help me with this. A few months ago, my monitor died, so I grabbed one of the old ones out of the garage and hooked it up. Prob solved, I thought. Now today, my monitor died, so I got the last of the oldies out of the garage and it didn't come on either. we tried, but couldn't shutdown so I changed it while the pc was running. Then my wife hit reset and we're in business. So, did the computer not pick up the monitor as it didn't look for it until the reset button was hit? That's my theory. what do you guys think? Also, are the deaths of these monitors unrelated, or is there a possible underlying cause? Possible bad video card? As it is, it looks like I have to get another monitor just to have on hand. suggestions???????? |
