Pc Repair Shops? Monitor lead.

Spunog UIE

As some of you main remember i had to replace the monitor lead on my 19" Gericom. well it didn't work, and think its time i bring the monitor to a repair place.

The cable was sealed to the back of the monitor and would like it replaced with a female port so i can easily replace the cable in future should i need to.

Anyway since i've never had to bring a pc related problem to a 'specialist' and i'm wary of them, lots of chancers around, i'm looking for recomindations.

So any ideas?

Thanks,
Alo.

TBH I dont know if its a job that a PC "tech" should do.

monitors are a science all of their own.

noticed the website for karting, you might like mine:

No don't. They're hideously expensive.

Dont try and open the monitor and dont get your Nerdy PC techie to do it either.. you can die.. seriously!! dead!!!! Enough built up electricity to kill you straight!!

already had it open etc' was unplugged for like 2weeks, maybe it wasn't enough but then again i'm still here

i know what has to be done, just i cant' do it. hate that.

tv's a bit handier than the old monitor. grrr, will try a few local places. i was just hoping there would be some sort of specialist place.

Gideon,

You might try these guys. They had a minimum charge, but it's a long time since I dealt with them. You could give them a call first.
