8928 2001-02-19 05:27:00 Have a green screen - major case of jaundice!!
Have followed instructions to clear an 'improper resolution' (Start Windows 95 - F8 - Chose SAFE
Mode - etc etc etc
This has made no difference at all.
Do not have original programme discs for Win 95 etc as this is a second-hand 486.
Is problem monitor or hard-drive or worth the bother either way???????????????????/

Help!?!?

8929 2001-02-19 07:14:00 Hi Donna, the most usual cause of this is aloose video cable plug or possibly a bent pin on the connector at the end of the cable where it plugs in to the back of the processor. It might be more serious but thats where I would start.
Good luck PC.

8930 2001-02-20 06:04:00 Thanks heaps - have checked this but to no avail.
I am taking monitor in to get checked for 'dry joints' which can apparently cause this delightful penomenom - fingers crossed that this works.
Thanks again.
