"I am having trouble with my computer..The screen just goes black..I got it back on after many tries.."

If you've replaced a TV or two lately, one of them may have a connection for the output of your computer.

It's one of the things I look for in a new TV; not only to be able to display digital channels directly, but also to be able to be used as a computer monitor as well.

I'm using one of the new TVs I purchased recently for this purpose right now. I haven't even connected it to cable yet.

A warning though, you may need to adjust the settings on your computer before you can use the TV. I did have to do that. The computer had been set for a 70 Hertz refresh rate, and the TV did not like that. After setting the computer to 60 Hertz, everything worked fine. A nice bright, and wide, picture.

Good Luck!
