Hello Spinlanders,
Many thanks to all of you kind soles who responded to my plea for help last
week after our aging Aspect 3000 monitor bit the dust.
While checking into all of the suggestions that were sent, I dropped the
monitor off at a 'hole in the wall' electronics shop in Cranford, NJ, called
Fine Electronics. The place is run by an electrical engineer who told me
that he 'can fix anything, no problem'. True to his word, less than 24
hours later, I picked up the monitor that now works better than ever. The
power supply was found to be defective and was replaced.
The most elegant solution, pointed out by many respondents, was that offered
by Karen Ann Smith of UNM. She found that a current technology NEC LCD
1550X LCD monitor in conjunction with an EGA/VGA adapter and a HDDB15
female/female gender changer allowed the Aspect 3000's Graphic Display
Processor to enter the 21st century producing an image with much better
resolution than that of the original monitor.
I will be in Germany this week, however, upon my return I will definitely
apply KAS's solution to our Aspect 3000 retaining the original monitor for
backup.
Again, many thanks and kind regards,
Lawrence
