My Nanao 17" monitor did that this past weekend when I turned it on after it had been off briefly following a two-hour session. I'm guessing that the CRT filament blew. It was five years old...but there was no clue that anything was about to happen; the picture had been like new up until the moment it busted. I paid $900 for it in 1995; it was considered one of the best available. -- packer@clark.net (Charles Packer) http://www.clark.net/~whatnews
