Flat screen monitor wanted

[Don Grillo]

Our CPU flat screen in the office has finally bit the dust. If anyone has a flat screen monitor that is lying around collecting dust they would like to donate to the club, please, bring it in.

Best regards,

Don

I think I have a 20″ LCD if that’s big enough.

[Dennis Burke]

Larry beat me to it.  I also have a 20″ Acer X203H  flat screen display available for donation, if required.

[Larry Moy]

I happen to have an Acer X203H with a couple others.  Is the system capable of running multiple screens?

[Don Grillo]

Larry, please check the size of your monitors. 20” is really a bit to small for our old eyes. A minimum of 23” would be ideal.  We only have room for one monitor on our desk.

[Larry Moy]

Still looking for a monitor?  Might have sourced a 22″-23″ from a friend.

[Don Grillo]

Hi Larry, one of members brought out a nice monitor. Thank you for your effort.

Don what input type connector does it need, HDMI or VGA?

Don,

 

I have a 19” TV that we are no longer using.  It has HDMI inputs on it, along with all the usual TV connections.  I will happily donate it to the club.

 

Best Regards,

 

John F. Phelan

We get enough monitors and we can set up a full-blown Condor cockpit simulator.

Bringing in a working monitor would be great. 

It is a common problem with LCD monitors (and many electronic devices build between 1999 and 2007) to have start up issues.  This is due to some bad capacitors and is known as the “capacitor plaque” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague).  Heaven only knows how many devices are in land fill because of this.  You can typically tell the bad capacitors by simply looking for the classic bulge of their end caps.  I have fixed this multiple times on devices and have the parts in stock.  So keep that balky monitor and I will try to fix it to keep as a spare or use it elsewhere.

I have one

[Don Grillo]

Would prefer to have at least a 23” monitor. The 20” are to small.

I am unsure if there is a second video port on that computer.  I can check tomorrow.
