Hello Roy - 

RJT> This monitor started acting a bit weird on my a while
RJT> back, it was starting to intermittently lose the blue,
RJT> giving all of my text a rather odd tint... 

RJT> We were away for a couple of days, and last night when I
RJT> came back it was even stranger. Something prompted me to
RJT> wiggle the video cable at the back of the computer, and
RJT> now all I have are gray and white. No color at all. 

RJT> I'm also looking at some very odd effects when things are
RJT> supposed to be highlighted, etc. 

RJT> Anybody run into this one before? I suppose the next step
RJT> is to see if the problem resides in the monitor or the
RJT> video card. The card is that same Compaq that's given me
RJT> grief in other applications, sold to me as a 2M card but I
RJT> never could get any system to see more than 1M on it. 

RJT> Comments? 

Find out what day is 'garbage day' in the yuppy neighborhoods
in your area and take an early morning spin through the
neighborhood each week. You will eventually find a working
monitor at the curb and probably a better video card. :-)
