That was going to be my next step, until I decided the hell with it, and to take the CPU in to be checked out. I need to go into town anyway. The backup monitor is enormous, and would take up most of the top of my desk! And in fact, I don't *know* if it works -- my SIL gave it to me. It had been in storage at her school, and the school people wanted the ancient monitors to be taken away to free up space. So I've never plugged it in.
It may be the video card in the CPU, or the cable.
I was also thinking that if they find that it is NOT the CPU or the cable, I'm not even going to have them check out the monitor, just get another one.
