I had to put my pc in the shop on the 29th and thank goodness they only had to replace the supply source it wouldn’t turn on at all. I just got it back this morning and when I plugged it back in the monitor wouldn’t come on it just kept click click clicking, in a panic I called Bill at work and he told me to call the technician back and that guy told me that he couldn’t tell me anything without seeing it which makes perfect sense of course, but he did say that it would be cheaper to buy a new one than have it worked on.
So I started calling around and the best price I found was at Office Max they had a 19 inch wide screen on sale for 119 dollars. He also told me to bring mine in and they would check it to make sure it was the monitor and not a video card. They weren’t far from us so Bill came home from work and ran me over and of course I forgot the power cord to my old one and had to come back and get it and go back again. He plugged it in and it went nuts so I got the new monitor.
Bill dropped me off at home and went back to work. I unpacked it, put it together and it wouldn’t turn on and I started to panic again so after I calmed myself down I went back over everything and checked all the plugs and I didn’t have the power cord all the way in, what a relief like magic the darn thing came on. So I started to check everything and when I loaded my blog with this huge screen I saw the header wasn’t centered and managed to work myself up again.
Since I had modified the theme I had it off center, but on my little 15 inch screen it had looked fine so I didn’t realize how awful it looked. It took me an hour to figure out what I did wrong and fix it so if it doesn’t look right to anyone I would appreciate someone letting me know, thanks in advance. Now that I have that sorted I can get on with normal things. I apologise to those from Entrecard for not being able to drop, but I did manage to get a lot of things sorted on the home front in 2 days.
I just noticed there’s no where to plug in my speakers on the monitor, but I’ll deal with that later. Take care everyone and have a great weekend.
