Minos Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 yeah my gay monitor is all yellow and sometimes fading to black. Sometimes just a few knocks resolve the problem but I'm getting tired of beating the shit out of this monitor all the time. Apparently all could be fixed with a degauss but mine doesn't have it. Anyone know anything I could do ? I googled for it and found only little info thanks Quote

Minos Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Posted October 3, 2006 Why buy a new one if I can fix this one for a little money ? gins: yeah I don't want to use giant magnets cause I'm afraid I'll fuck up everything Quote
ginsengavenger Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 see if there are any appliance repair places around, they might be able to do something cheap or give you ideas if there's anything that can be done (or sell you a used one cheap) Quote
dissonance Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 you can buy degauss setups, but i have no idea where from. my physics teacher had one. that dude was crazy. Quote
Tequila Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 Sounds like the tube is fucked, and to get that replaced more or less costs as much as a new monitor. Buy another one. Quote
teeluu Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 I prefer crt, dunno why. Just like them more. Besides, you can get them almost free these days, i got my 17" (which is pretty good) with 10 euros from a friend. Someone offered me earlier one 17" crt for free, didn't take it tho. I think i'd rather buy a new used monitor from someone than putting money on fixing the current one, unless it's 19" or 21". Quote
Zacker Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 You can do a manual degauss with a good magnet. First place it on the middle of your screen area and then move it outwards. Repeat this in all directions. I had the same problem with a television a few years ago. It's colors were also pretty fucked and it had no degauss button. So we found a magnet and it turned out it was pretty easy to degauss it manually. Quote
kleinluka Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 yeah get a new one. this one sounds like it's too old to handle the amounts of porn you're trying to display on it Quote
Bic-B@ll Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 or all of his old porn is making his monitor old Quote
