Its a Magnavox 8cm515 (I think). Essentialy, I think that this monitor was the 1084 before C= switched to a different monitor for it. One night my monitor went fzzt, then the screen blanked and nothing would show. My Amy was still working, but I couldn't see a thing. I powered down and then rebooted, and everything was fine. What I want to know is this dangerous to my Amy??? And is it possible for me to fix this problem with my monitor myself? Thanks in advance. I'll post a summary if there is sufficient interest. >*************************************************************************** >-Joseph Hillenburg > ____ > ///// > ///// > ____ ///// > \\\\\///// -- David E.
