Hi net! I have a somewhat nasty problem. Recently, my Mac II
Applecolor RGB monitor was being moved out of storage, and due to
circumstances we need not go into, it got dropped and suffered a shock.
It was in its high-impact polystyrene neato Apple official packaging,
and suffered no VISIBLE damage, and the picture is fine. However, it
has developed a nasty trait: When it is powered up after being 'cold'
(i.e. off for more than two-three minutes or so) it produces a LOUD
vibration, which drowns out the usual Mac II chord and sounds as if a
moving part is involved. I know of no moving parts in the monitor, at
least none that might produce this, but does anyone out there have any
ideas? I don't know how to escribe the noise better; it lasts from
between a half second to a second, almost like a wheel that was scraping
hard against a surface was coming up to speed. Excpet that it is
definately a vibration. Ah well. As usual and of course, thank you very
much for any information y'all might have.
