Mangar Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 I can't get a new monitor here at work, until this one goes bad So I ask... whats a good way to shorten the life of a CRT monitor (17" viewsonic). Please no "Hammer" jokes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 ofcousre there are ways. but it will endanger your life. you gota open it.. ground a screw driver. and pull of the suction cup.. then blow a few capacitors.. turn it on.. .and watch the fireworks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammin Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 (edited) Mmmmmm..... you could 'accidentally' spill some coffee (or any liquid beverage) down the back of it. Again, you may want to stand back for this one. Don't see the point of breaking something thats perfectly ok on purpose myself, but you wanted suggestions.

rossfstan Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 change the Refresh rate to somthing really stupid like 200Hertz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammin Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 Changing the refresh probably won't do squat if its relatively new. It'll just reset back to a refresh it can do most likely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
