My monitor is dying!
For the past week it has been "jumping" for a sec and then regaining stability but the occurence of the "jumps" is becoming more frequent and it is making me feel like could go at any second. Am I wrong? The bad part? I just spent $500.00 on a new (oh so cute and comfy!) bed yesterday and another $40.00 on a new CD Rom drive. I have a whole twenty-eight cents in my pocket at present LOL! So, if I disappear for a while or my sites become completely inactive (while being built/moved) its because I will have no way to continue until I get another monitor. |
Gee, Moni, sorry to hear about your hardware problems, but if you disappear, I will save all my pro-Bush comments until you get back. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You know that the bed is going to have to go now. Oh and get a nice 21" this time! I'm sure the loss of the bed will be worth it! hehe
Seriously though can't you have it looked into? I'm not sure how far monitor repairs can go but it might be worth it in the end. |

Bokken, I don't know if it would be worth it, this monitor is pretty old! (Optiquest V775 by View Sonic). I am not getting rid of the bed! I slept so soundly last night I wasn't sure where I was when I woke up this morning LOL! Beaumanoir, It was an emergency LOL! KHaN took his room back LOL! It was either sleep on a couch or loveseat or in here with the snore monster! I took my "old" room back but ditched the cot I couldn't sleep on without having back problems. KHan has a substantial amount in savings if we need it so I am not afraid of any real emergencies, but he told me he isn't buying me a new monitor if this one goes today. Unfortunatley, it will be a couple of months before it can be replaced if that happens. No spares LS. :( Well, come tomorrow I will be in school most of the time but I did want to get my web pages moved during the evenings since I know I can't finish them all today. K T Ong, I'll probably get KHaN's "old" monitor and he'll get a new one. His is a 19" flat something or another...pretty nice actually.

Gadz Moni! I'm really sorry to read this. . I had a similar problem last year. My monitor was going too. I was getting "pink screen fadeout". . I kept wondering when it would become the pink screen of permanent death! I hope it lasts until you can get a new one. .

Well, For Money, You Should Pawn His.... Errm... Face.. More Money & Less Snoring... Every Body Is Happy [img]tongue.gif[/img]

There is no fading going on though, just the "jump" thing. like it is trying to restart itself but doesn't quite get there. Maybe there is hope after all? [ 08-25-2002, 11:51 AM: Message edited by: Moni ] |
