Dear Hotline,
Hello, this is Prof. Arias (x3-6831, Rm 12-110). My personal athena
machine (its in my office 12-110, but on athena contract) seems to be
having a hardware problem:
The monitor is doing something which it never used to. When the
keyboard is in active and the monitor goes blank (which is normal), the
monitor switches completely off so that when I touch the keyboard again,
the monitor has to powerup all over again (which it never used to do and
which takes something like 30 secs for the screen to warm up so that
I can see anything). I am concerned that this hard on-off cycling is
bad for the monitor, also it is extremely inconvenient. Since it just
started doing this after several years, I think it is a hardware
problem.
Could you have someone come over and look at it ASAP.
Thank you,
--
