Sorry to hear about your monitor but, like Sue said, at least you have a backup... thumbsup.gif

I will have to wait a couple of weeks for a replacement though , £££ is tight at the moment.



The old one was a 21" thumbsup.gif (i ran it at 1280x1024 so my eyes didnt suffer from too small text)

The replacement one i am using is a 17" (but i need to run it at 1024x768) , everthing seems so big on it and i have some desk space left again w00t.gif laugh.gif

I couldnt belive how much the old 21" weighed when i tried to pick it up , not moved it for a long time...
