 One more time, when you have a 1084 "go dead" and you hear a click (like
when it is turned on and off) The problem is NOT A VIRUS!  It is a 
"cold" (broken) solder joint on the motherboard of the 1084 monitor,
the person in question posted this sometime ago, and I helped him with his
problem, and it was in deed the motherboard of the monitor that was the 
source of the problems...  If anyone else has a similar problem (they are
fighteningly fequent on the 1084) of the screen just going "black all of
a sudden (in it's early stages, it screen can be brought back with a 
good "whack" to the side of the monitor case (left side preferablly).

Anyway, if you want to know how it fix it, email me... I will give you
an exhaustive discription on how to fix it.
