Topband: ARRL 160

[Bill Aycock]

Gary-
Within your post are some indications of confusion. I think your computer is 
NOT dead, but either the cable to the monitor is out, or the monitor is bad.
If the computer was indeed dead, you could not have transferred data from 
it.
You said you moved the monitor; why don't you check again?
