Have an older 23" CRT VX1120 monitor. I lowered the resolution on it
to 1280 x1024 and a few minutes later the screen went out and now it
is totally black. Could something of blown up since I lowered the
resolution? Or was it most likely just a coincedence that it failed
on me at that time? |

Using a non supported screen resolution is dangerous for any monitor.
If the monitor instructions say that you should be able to use 1280 X
1024, then its failure is purly coincidence.
For most monitors, after about 3 to 4 years their reliability drops
off very rapidly.
