[Ti] Monitor Help!

[Scott Strehlow]

Frequently the problem is that a pin gets loose in the male VGA  
connector and slides back.  I've had two monitors that did that.  It  
is an easy fix.   Open the shell on the connector, push the offending  
pin back down, and put a bit of glue on it on the back where the  
wires are connected.
