Problem with monitor

[Silenus]

Hi people.

I have a problem with my monitor, since a while.
The thing is that ramdonly the monitor restarts, sometime in a middle of game.

My monitor is a gateway gateway 17", The one that came with a round button in the center.

This one.


Anybody might know the cause?

I know that I have to replace it 'cause is an old monitor, but first I though that it was my videocard, so I bough another one and now I know that the card is not the problem.

Does this happen after you move your monitor or desk? if so it's probably a loose cable at the back, a lot of monitors have stupidly loose cables that will fall out at the slightest touch.

Apart from that, maybe your monitor is just buggered

The cables are tightly hooked, so that's not the problem.

I though that it was the refresh rate, but I don't know right now what refresh rate it supports.
