I think my computer screen may be on the verge of breaking.......
The last few days when I've went to turn it on after waking up, it has taken several tries for it to actually work. It would turn on and turn off at the same time. Is there anything I can do about this, or is it a case of when it goes, it goes here?
No one is perfect. A babe before walking will first stumble and fall many times but NEVER gives up until he succeeds.

Always remember, ultimately, to never follow any person's belief. Your relationship with God is between you and God.

If nothing else, remember this: religion = subservience, control and conformity, the same template as EVERY government

Problem is.......when this computer goes I've been told by my family, meaning my mom and grandma that I won't be getting another. Being faced with that reality now is a little scary, if or when the screen goes.

No shit, I was about to say that.

I mean, WTF ajk? Aren't you into your 20s now?

What are ya doing man? Seriously?

They won't buy your ass another computer because they know about your little (massive) porn addiction and your imaginary girlfriend problem.

Maybe they want you to fuck off and find a REAL FEMALE in REAL LIFE like IN PERSON and have sex with her and HOPEFULLY get fucking married off.

BYE.

hi


Do you get that impression? Ever?

Think about it. REALLY, fucking consider it.

Hell, you could go to a lot of places that get rid of their older monitors.

The big bulky ones.

And Wal-Mart routinely has some like this:

Nevermind this.....I think I figured out the issue with a little searching, think it's gonna be ok.

As for the rest......point taken and that's all I'll say.

Possibly try changing the monitor cable.

Monitors can be replaced without replacing the whole computer.

Or for that matter any bit of hardware can.

I got the current monitor I am using (17" LCD) screen several years ago when I was still using the Gateway computer tower with Window's XP. Last year I upgraded the tower with an HP Windows 7 Duel core processor still using the monitor and the ergo, cordless keyboard and mouse.

Most modern HD flat screen TV's are designed to be directly plugged into a computer.

So when the monitor goes just tell them you need a new TV.
