Over Heating Display! Help!!

Dear Techimo Support,

My monitor seems to be having problems. Below is a picture of what my screen looks like at random times as it would be to hard to describe in typed detail.

Maybe not entirely at random. There may be a relationship, or coincidental occurrence. At the times I am consuming mass amounts of the "Beer" beverage & spinning a "Doors" CD featuring Jim Morrison, on my computer this happens.

[list=1][*]Do you think this is actually coincidental or random?[*]Do you think this display behaviour is a possible fire threat to the rest of the house and it's contents?[*]Should I switch to another brand of beer and/or musical artist?[*]Could this be the result of a burned copy of said CD? (I'm Canadian so this shouldn't matter.)[*]Could the Altec Lansing 4.1/400watt amplified speakers with the volume turned up to about 160db's have anything to do with this strange display behaviour?[*]Should I fire it out the window when this happens, just in case?[/list=1]

Hope to hear from someone soon,

signed,
Gettingoffadafloornow

Cheers!

I vote for number 2. Switch to another brand of beer and try listening to Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon."

I'll take that under advisement. (I think you mean #3)

Thanks!

So so far the consences is that it's the beer brand.

Maybe I should contact Budweizer and let them know that there beverage is harmful to computer monitors. If my house burns down, I'll sue!

Cheers!

Well look at it this way, if you get enough friends over and consume mass quantities of Buttweiper, you'll have plenty of ammo to put out said fire if it occurs!

Hmm. It's definitely the beer. Switching brands won't make any difference however. The only cure is Whiskey.

See! See! It takes another Canuk to come up with a real solution. Crown Royal should do the trick...

Cheers!
