Title: Monitor help...
Post by: zorstorer on June 20, 2006, 05:59:05 PM

I am pretty sure it is dieing but I thought to ask first.

My VERY old monitor (anyone remember Micron?) today started acting up.  As soon as I would power it on the screen would come up to the proper brightness but within a short time it would become brighter hold for a bit then get darker and so on, as I am typing this it seems to be holding at a fairly dark setting.

Last legs and all that right?

Anyone know of a good place to get cheap monitors? ;)

Those symptoms are typical of older CRT monitors on the way out.
