Recommend me a monitor.

Hey - i'm looking for a monitor for my laptop.

I'm looking for something along 21" - i hope to find something with a fairly good price, good color contrast and good viewing angles. It would be a BIG plus if it is able to take a TV-input.

I hope i can get some help

laptop screen goes white & crashes, reboot problem

I have very unique problem with my Dell Latitude D610 laptop. It is 5 year old, since last few months, when I put my laptop to standby or sleep mode and after a while when I try to put on laptop, it does following:
1-laptop will turn off from standby/sleep mode and it won't turn back on no matter how many times I try, I have to remove battery, power adapter and leave the laptop for 10-20 minutes.
2-after 10-20 minutes when I turn the laptop on, a line will appear on the lcd screen and it will turn white and laptop crashes, this will happen 5-6 times, every time I turn the laptop turn on. after 5-7 times then laptop will turn back on fine and will work fine for next many hours until I put laptop back to standby/sleep mode or turn off completely off and when I turn back the laptop on it will shut-off, I have to wait for 10-20 minutes and screen will turn white and crashes....it will do the same pattern and eventually turn on fine.

This is what I had done to correct the problem:
1-i clean the laptop with dust-off including fan entire laptop if there is heating problem
2-updated most drivers including display etc
3-used external monitor to check for LCD problem, no apparent problem with LCD as when lcd turns white laptop crashes too?
4-use external laptop cooling pad to keep the temp down, use mobile meter software to monitor laptop hdd temp?

I tried everything I could think of?can anyone suggest anything else?in my opinion this is a faulty mother board problem or video graphic card?please help if you can-Thanks

Pavilion dm4-1165dx STICKY TOUCHPAD CLICKS?

After shopping for what felt like weeks for a laptop that suited my needs, I finally opted for this one. It specs out perfectly on paper.



I brought it home and set it up, and it seems like every time I click the mouse buttons, they stick for a moment. It makes an annoying noise as well.



Has anyone else experienced this? I am wondering if I have a faulty laptop or if it is a "feature". Either way, I either need a new one, or a different model. I just need to know what direction to aim in...

Getting my video card replaced - few questions

A techy is coming later this week to replace my 5850 because of the high temperatures my card reaches; over 100 degrees Celsius after 30 minutes of gaming. My questions are:



Should I delete my overclocking programs before they mess with my system?

Will they apply after market thermal paste for me?

Should I be here while they replace my card? (someone else will be here, just not me)

Should I oc the crap out of my card to see how high I can get my benchmark numbers before I get it replaced?
