At my work I just recently put in a new computer for one of the secretaries. It was a custom build machine that the last computer tech (who just up and quit) and purchased to be put at her desk. It is running an MSI mobo with integrated video, which is all she really needs. Well, when i conntected the computer to her old monitor everything went fine, that is until the computer got it's first restart. Everytime the computer restarts or the monitor gets turned off in power saving mode the monitor loses all settings. Brightness, screen adjustment, everything. Also when restarting or powering up the monitor will click loudly 4 or 5 times and each time it will be resetting all the settings on it.. So you can turn it on, start uping the brightness and it will click and cut the brightness back down to nothing. Does this sound like a monitor problem or should I just drop an old Geforce Mx400 video card into the computer? The company has already ordered her a new LCD monitor to replace this old CRT, so one way or another it will get fixed. What is your money on, monitor or video?
