Post subject:  Main Monitor Broke
My 19" seems to have packed up. Not sure whats happened to it The green on light comes on for half a second then goes off with the screen not doing anything. Question is wot do I do. I'm using my secondary Advent 17" TFT at the moment. My main was a 19" Compaq CRT which I've had for about 5 years, cost about £239 when new. It had started going a little dark before it packed up.

How much and how old are they.. Lutons only 1 hour drive :) I need 2 :? They are colour?

Was looking at this post here as well... Samsung 19" for £199 looks OK. http://forum.gamecommunity.co.uk:8080/viewtopic.php?t=29181

Wots 20,000 volts between friends... :shock:

Unmounted CRTs should always be carried with its face, the heaviest part, down. Use both hands, and grasp the tube under the face, wrapping your hands around to the sides where the metal mounting frame is attached. Never carry a CRT by the neck! For added safety, carrying the tube in a closed, thick box or with a thick cloth wrapped around it (but not in such a way as to impair your grip on the tube) is a good idea; this will reduce the amount of flying debris should the tube break. Large tubes (over 19 inches) should be carried by two people. In general, you should treat the tube like a hand grenade, thinking that if you handle it carefully and keep your grip on it, there is no serious danger, but that it could cause a disaster if you drop it. :shock:

20KV off a CRT won't kill you generally - it hurts though :)
