What do you do when you’re toiling away at the project of the moment and all of a sudden your monitor goes dark? There’s no clicking sounds, not a whiff of smoke or a flicker of the lights. The computer itself continues merrily along, waiting for your next input or instruction. Checking and double-checking the connections show that they’re all good. Cooling is ok, Etc. The only apparent problem is that the monitor itself simply will not show a picture anymore.
Well, What I did when that happened to me late yesterday afternoon was all of the checking and testing that I could think of, followed by switching out the monitor with a borrowed unit. However that main one is going to have to be replaced asap. Unfortunately, like most people these days, reserves are not there for a replacement.
So I’ve decided to do the only other thing I can think of and place a shiny new Paypal donate button in the sidebar in a blatant effort to raise cash for a monitor
Thanks for your patience and we now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging.
