| Langjan | Anyway the prob is sorted, its the monitor | 07:38 |
| andrewlsd | Morning paddatrapper Kilos inetpro Langjan thatgraemeguy theblazehen and others. | 07:52 |
| Kilos | ja dankie Langjan en jy? | 07:52 |
| Kilos | hi andrewlsd | 07:52 |
| theblazehen | Hi andrewlsd and others | 07:52 |
| Kilos | sorry Langjan i ran out of data last night and by the time i got back you were gone | 07:53 |
| andrewlsd | just a re-post from something I saw on other social media: ScaleConf is happening in Cape Town 9-10 March. website-scaling technologies. see http://scaleconf.org | 07:53 |
| Kilos | i even typed here someone there must give you authority to get in there i think, to stop spammers | 07:53 |
| thatgraemeguy | morning | 07:55 |
| Kilos | so Langjan just needed a monitor change? | 07:55 |
| Kilos | hi thatgraemeguy | 07:55 |
| Langjan | Hi andrewlsd et al | 08:02 |
| Langjan | Hi Kilos all is fine here thks. Yes he needs a new monitor | 08:02 |
| Langjan | I checked the connections and cable, mine works fine so there is a problem in the monitor, 10 years old | 08:03 |
| Langjan | LG Flatron 17" | 08:04 |
| Kilos | ai! | 08:04 |
| Kilos | always something | 08:04 |
| Kilos | some pc repair places sell second hand monitors | 08:04 |
| Kilos | i got a nice one few years back for R400 | 08:05 |
| Langjan | Been shopping around, there are quite a few from about R400-500, theres a Dell E1709w in Cape Town with no stand for R100 | 08:14 |
| Langjan | Can use the stand from the old one | 08:14 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 08:15 |
| Kilos | stands can be made but the courier will charge lots from there | 08:16 |
| MaNI | 10 year old monitor with problems, probably the fuse :p | 08:20 |
| Langjan | We can use SAPO tracked and insured parcel, will not be much more than about R50 I guess. | 08:20 |
| Langjan | Thks MaNI I'm just battling to open the thing, have manual but still not clear how. If its the fuse the monitor will probably be stone dead. It shows a white screen with vertical lines | 08:22 |
| MaNI | ahh okay, not the fuse then | 08:22 |
| nsnzero | hi guys | 08:34 |
| nsnzero | is the monitor not in test mode ? | 08:34 |
| Langjan | hi nsnzero how do I check for test mode? | 09:05 |
| Langjan | screen is completely white | 09:06 |
| nsnzero | looks like the controller chip is faulty is it CRT or LCD ? | 09:09 |
| Langjan | LCD | 09:11 |
| nsnzero | i had a laptop that had the same problem - it was a signal wire that was broken - have you tried the monitor without pluging the VGA connector ? | 09:21 |
| Langjan | It still shows a white screen with only power cable on | 09:24 |
| Langjan | with vga connected it shows some fine colored vertical lines | 09:25 |
| Langjan | still on white screen | 09:25 |
| nsnzero | its the controller chip then - best you have a tech check it out | 09:30 |
| Langjan | Thanks nsnzero | 09:35 |
| nsnzero | its my pleasure | 09:39 |
