Have you tried adjusting your monitor screen sm

In Reply to: I think I may need glasses because I am getting the most - Bradys Mom

up or down a hair or two? I bought a new monitor for Christmas and had headaches for a week before I realized it needed to go up about 1/4-1/2 inch. I moved it and the headaches went away. Just a thought.

Anyone successful with full screen monitor sm
hooked connected to a laptop and how did you get it to work.  I have been trying to get my monitor and laptop to interact with one another, but no such look.  Can anyone help me with this?  I do not think I can look at this laptop screen all day.  Thanks!!
Is there a way to show caps locked on the monitor screen?

Or does it depend on the keyboard?  If it depends on keyboard, how can I program it to show up on my monitor in the bold green letters I have seen that some can do?  Anyone know?

For tired eyes, get an anti-glare screen to put on monitor. Amazing difference. I had

EXText Word Client - blank screen everytime I give "ok" in the DIS screen
I am using EXText Word Client software with Transnet. I am getting a blank screen everytime I give "ok" in the DIS screen (patient details info screen). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software an upgraded but still errors out the same way. Are there any EXtexters who could help?

EXText word client blank screen everytime I give ok in DIS screen
Thanks your suggestion was very valuable. At a specified time (which the technical side say, when the net speed is very good), it is working without a problem at all (whereas this was half working and half not working before even at this time), but other times, still the same problem exists.

Actually the blank screen comes every time I give "ok" in the DIS screen (patient details info screen).
Took a bit of adjusting from Word and WP..but

Screen Resolution/Font/Screen Percentage
My eyes are tired all the time. I usually have my monitor set at 800 x 600 pixels and use Bookman at 10 font in Word at 111% in the normal layout. What might be a better viewing screen setting to use?
I'm having trouble adjusting 2 bifocals!

Do U ever get used to that darn line in the middle?? It seems so strange, but I just got them today.


Does it get better?


Had a fairly difficult time adjusting but,
I believe it is doing my hands and wrists some good. The keys seem more difficult to depress than previous keyboard, and it sounds like a rattle trap (plus the p sticks), but other than ALL THAT, I think I like it.
I worked in Insurance for 20 years, adjusting

Now all of this depends on your own state law:  Mold is very prevelant now throughout the entire South, including Texas, due to previous water damage and due to shoddy building practices, including new construction.  Insurance companies have had to pay mold claims for years and are now excluding mold in their policies unless higher premiums are paid.  Most companies will not insure any home that has had ANY previous water damage claims, no matter how small.  Some companies will even drop you like a hot potato come renewal time if you file a water damage claim.  Since mold can pop up years after water damage, that is why you are having trouble getting insurance.  Should the sellers have disclosed this? YES YES YES! If you can, you should consult an attorney experienced in real estate LAW (not just a closing attorney).  You may possibly be able to get out of this contract for nondisclosure.  Your house will be blacklisted for as long as it stands.  The biggest lesson in all this?  If you have water damage and can afford to fix it yourself - then do so.  Do NOT file a claim with your insurance company.  You are not the first buyer to go through this and you won't be the last.


Is there a way to create a macro for adjusting zoom?
In other words, if I want to adjust my zoom from 100% to 125% and then back to 100% before uploading without having to click view, zoom, etc, is there a way to create a shortcut to switch between zoom views? I just can't see well at 100%. I need glasses, obviously, but in the meantime I want to be able to see better without the strain to my eyes. Its just such a hassle to change zoom back and forth for every document, but we cannot upload them with the zoom at anything more or less than 100%.
Are you a monitor here?

I luv my LCD monitor
Not much to assemble. It's really a matter of popping the two cords into the back of the monitor. It'll take you about 15 minutes from start to finish ... that includes opening the box, taking out everything, reading the directions, connecting the monitor, installing the software), and throwing the box out.

If you use your computer a lot, plan on buying a lot of batteries or having a backup for a wireless with a charger.


As for monitors, you can get them on pricewatch pretty cheap now.  I actually bought my son a 21 inch Sony on ebay for 200 including shipping.  For my own 19 inch, I bought it at a rent-to-own furniture store.  Once they have them a few months, they sell them and I bought it for 40. and it's like new. 


 


Monitor
Yes! Yes! Yes! I recently got a flat-screen and I love,love, love it. I have a Sceptre which I bought at Wal-Mart for about $150.00. Best thing I ever did. It really cut down on my headaches. Get a flat-screen. You will not be sorry. I promise. :)
Well I DO need a big monitor...
these days. After hitting 40, my eyesight definitely isn't what it used to be, LOL!
monitor
i used to have this happen, and with mine, it was not a precursor to going out. But i can't remember what supposedly caused it -- power surge, interference?? but in my case, led to no other problems.
Monitor......
Buy a shield or screen for the monitor that minimizes glare from the lightsource.
Need help with monitor

I recently had a monitor conk out, so I got the one out that came with my personal computer (a couple years old but never used). 


Everything was fine for a few weeks but lately, out of the blue, my page will shift to the right for no apparent reason (leaving 1-1/2 inch of black on the left and the right edge of the page not in view) and then it will shift back at some point.


When I press on the monitor menu button, nothing happens at all.  I know when I first set it up, the menu and selections worked fine.


Any idea what is happening here? 


Do you use more than one monitor?...

My husband and I "built" our new computer on Dell's website last night, and they are offering a second monitor for a very reasonable rate.  My question is, does anyone have this set-up using 2 monitors to work?  I didn't quite see the use for 2, but maybe to have one just for typing, and the other for my references? 


Apparently, it is set up that you just have to move your mouse and it will move over to the other screen....seems easy enough.  But, I don't know if it would be worth the extra space it would take up on my desk and work area.  So,does anyone have this set-up and consider it a must?


Thanks very much for your help! 


What monitor do you have?

This has nothing to do with the monitor...sm
It's about how the page will be printed:

Portrait or Landscape.

Click on 'File'
Click on 'Page Set Up'

Then you have the option: Portrait or Landscape, click how you want it printed.

Portrait prints it vertical
Landscape horizontal (for longer lines)

Does anybody know where to find a good example of a Holter monitor report?

who are we to monitor what they do with their money?
What is the *proper manner*?  What you think they should do with money?  These are grown men and women with families.  They can decide what to do with the money.  There but for the grace of God go I.
Software with monitor
You install the software that comes with the monitor. It's very straight forward. Insert disk. Install software. Enjoy monitor.

Try moving your monitor up or down, too. sm
When my monitor is not positioned correctly, I get terrible neck aches and headaches. Sometimes just a half inch really makes a difference. Or even move your keyboard up or down. When I worked at the hospital, maintenance had to move my whole desk up onto 2 x 4's to give me that little bit of extra I needed and then I was comfortable. They had a desk made for kids that I had to sit at. It was really cramped.
guy got me a Hyundai monitor.....sm
Believe it or not, Hyundai sells monitors for around $140.  It was compatible with the Dell.  Hope that helps :)
What size is your monitor?

Just wondering what everyone uses.  I use a 17 inch but would like a 19 or 21.  I like mine big, but my mom who is also an MT says when the monitor is too big it slows down her production because her eyes have to travel further back and forth to read what she is typing.  LOL  Everyone is different.  I've seen these huge monitors at the computer stores lately, widescreen, like 30 inches, and they look pretty cool.  So...what size monitor does everyone use or would like to use?  Thanks!



the monitor in question is over 5 yrs old
if you're lucky.....and to have a monitor for 5 years is a GREAT amount of time.  Poster is lucky! 
Hanging monitor
I heard about monitors that you can hang sideways, which helps you see the full page at once instead of having to scroll down. Apparently the monitor has a setting to change the image to sideways or something. Could improve your efficiency. That's what I'd get if I were in the market for a monitor.
I use the monitor controls. You can
gray-down the tone of the monitor brightness quite a bit, at least on the monitors I've had.
Monitor question
I have an Acer desktop which came with standard monitor. If I go larger screen, will it work well? I was given a Dell monitor and plugged it into my Acer and all it did was flicker and give me big trouble. I have never tried flat screen but hate to spend money on something that won't be compatible. Could I also plug it into my laptop and have it work?
Monitor recommendation
My monitor is starting to go, and I have to replace it. Anyone have any recommendations? I'm considering a flat-screen to better maximize my limited desk space. Anyone use one?
What brand of LCD monitor to buy? sm

I am really troubled by eye strain ... got new computer glasses from eye doc but still not happy ... a number of people have said I should swap my CRT monitor out for a flat screen LCD.  I'm game to do it, but have been reading reviews until I'm brain-dead!  Thought maybe you folks here might share what brand of LCD you are using, and if you are happy with it for word processing.  I hear some are better for text than others, and I don't want to shell out the bucks without looking into it.  TIA!



flickering monitor
Are your plugs pushed in all the way--since brand new monitor--I'd think loose connection first. Or could be the wrong resolutions settings were chosen.
Monitor... please check out an ad...sm

on jobs.mtstars.com... Two inappropriate ads placed.  Both came up under search under sears all and Workers' Comp.


Thanks for maintaining a great board and your attention on this!
