Mornin'.

My computer monitor is fried. I don't know what happened, but I can only describe it as a power "ripple". Nothing actually shut off, but just after it happened, black lines appeared on my monitor.

The lines got thicker until all you can see is one slice of the far left part of the screen. ~sigh~

I'm using my laptop now. It's not worth getting another monitor at this stage of the game, so I'll have to see if I can borrow one from someone until I move. Or at least long enough to save my stuff off of the hard drive.

It's a bummer.

Mornin'... [sip]

What a bummer.

The good news is that it's one less heavy thing to move... :-)

Sorry to hear about that; Overtaxed has been having issues with her computer as well.

In thinking about it... It would be interesting to plug another monitor in just to make sure it's the monitor and not the video card.
