can a malfunctioning computer monitor harm the computer's video card in
anyway? If the monitor goes completely black, can that harm the card if
the computer is left running? Thanks.




Its happened to me a few times, but then at the time I used to service
monitors for a living so I got all manner of weird & wonderful faults to
contend with!
