power light comes on, the monitor recognizes that it is plugged into the videocard, ie> It goes green when the computer is on orange while in standby.
It makes/made a small click just after it degauss's but doesn't anymore.
Absolutely no picture the screen doesn't seem to have any power to it at all.

I still have my pristine P95f+b sitting at home back in Ontario.
I'd sell that to you if you're in the area (Georgian Bay) as shipping on the 70 lbs. beast probably wouldn't be too feasible :rolleyes:

Well I'm in B.C. so.....
Going to pick up a 19"WS @ the end of the month or so.
I was going to make the move to LCD anyways but still it was a piss off.

Yeah that just sucks. You expect a CRT monitor to die slowly over time, not just refuse to turn on one morning. Are you sure it's not under warranty anymore?

Thats the same monitor I am using now. It will be a year old in a couple of months. I will have to keep my fingers crossed.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Over 20 years and I've never had a CRT fail like that.

They usually either fade with time or take forever to brighten up.
