I use IE7 and OPERA, Wolfey. Didn't want to use FireFox, if I can avoid it.:) I have had FF, and I,dont feel comfortable with it.Was looking for something to suit the browsers I prefer,mate.

Windows XP Home,Dalo. Web pages that have adds down each side, and flash,I find distracting. Also the Flashing add across the top,often.

Wondering if there is a free program, that gets rid of annoying Adds, on Web Pages? Thanks.:)

I hooked the Monitor up to the New Computer, and not much difference.I then played around with all the settings,including Resolution,as you suggested,Dalo. I managed to work out how to navigate,eventually.Would be nice, if they supplied a "How To" with these Monitors.Much better now,as it was giving me a bad headache, the way it was.Thanks Seth, and Dalo, for your input,much appreciated.:) Wolfey,this thread can be closed,mate.

I will hook it up to the New Computer, Seth.

Thanks for the quick reply Seth.I forgot to say I hooked up an old 14" Monitor,and the text is brilliant,and sharp. I played with the monitor buttons, and then set Auto adjust, and then,set to default,but made no improvement.So whats your advice after this late info,Seth.Should I go into XP still? This happened at exactly the time I downloaded some Desktop Pics from Webshots.

Hi Guys.This is the old PC. The text on the Monitor went Snowy.By that I mean white around the edges.It is a 19" LCD Flat Screen.Happened all of a sudden. Its a CHIMEI CMV936A. I Googled and can seem to find a help TUT to fine tune it. Just out of Warranty. Any help appreciated.:)

Thanks Guys, for the nice Birthday wishes.Much appreciated.:)

No way mate.:)
-
Thanks Maynard. Should last me for a while.:)

The Screens are readily available, here in Sydney, in most Computer Shops. The 19" average $250 22" $295 AND 24" $450. I asked the Computer Shop to test the new Monitor,before I bought it. The first 3 they opened,had 1 dead pixel in each,so good idea to get the shop to test, before you buy.IMO. I bought the new PC, because this one is a Dinosaur,and eventually,I will run Vista.:)

Wonder what you Guys think of this Computer.Just wanted something good.I dont play high end games. AMD 5200+2.7GHZ Palit R780 Geforce 9500GT 1GB DDR 11 Graphic card. Kingston DDR 800 2GB 20X Dual Layer Burner 500 GB Samsung Sata 2 Hard Disc Sound on board 500W Icute /cool engine tower. LG 22" Lcd Flat Panel monitor.

Thats what I thought,to.There was no cd in the box.Will ask them.Thanks mate.

Thanks Wolfey Will go back today, and get another cable:) That point I mentioned in my last post,Will there be a Wizard, or something to access the net, and PC's recognize each other?
-
Thanks Wolfey,I'm not clued up on this. This is the one they sold me. Netgear WGR614AU 802.11G Wireless 54Mbps Router w.Firewall (33317) | Techbuy Australia I don't even know if it is the right one. I only want a router or something so each Computer can access the internet at the same time. I didnt ask for wireless. Is there something on the market simpler,Guys? The colour codes here be different. They sold me a blue cable to go from the Ethernet outlet on the Modem to the ethernet outlet on the router. In the box was one more 1 mtr Blue cable also. They said Modem to router then one cable from router to one PC and another cable from another outlet on the router to the 2nd PC. Does this sound right? That means I am 1 cable short. Not sure what you meant by,"and then return Path" When they are hooked up how does 1 PC recognize the other and the second PC gain access to the net?Thanks. Please keep Plain and simple please Guys. I am very confused.
