This makes for fun in itself or as a nice, cheap, and easy power supply for high voltage experiments. This monitor was able to gap about 1.5 inches.

I have a CRT monitor that is passing current to the CPU via the data cable?I have a CRT monitor that is passing current to the CPU via the data cable. The monitor's display is also poor since it is becoming green.
What could possibly be wrong with it? How can i sort the problem? How or what could have caused this? Dose this mean that the monitor needs to be changed?

I don't think it would have any detrimental effect, however it is always good practice to power off any electrical equipment when leaving it.

aww por old CRT Monitor.

There is no chance of any damage to the transmitter, but the CRT may pick up interference. So just hook it up and if the image on your CRT is fine, its all ok, if it seems distorted, jut keep it away

That’s right.
I don’t mind LCDs, but I’m waiting until OLED displays are common. They seem to promise CRT’s contrast ratio (or more), and, of course, no distortion or geometry adjustments!

Could the clicking actually be a spark? A quick zap? That would explain the flicker. This might be dust inside, but it could be some worse sort of electrical failure. If you open it up, let it sit Off overnight. CRTs can contain lethal voltages and big capacitors can hold a charge overnight at least. I think I'd just replace it with a new LCD monitor.

Use an LCD monitor rather than a CRT. Most of us are probably using LCDs today anyway, but if you are using a CRT, consider switching. LCDs use less energy than CRTs. You can easily tell simply from the amount of heat a CRT produces.
The standard refresh rate on VGA-capable monitors (which is all of them by today’s standards) is 60Hz whether you’re using CRT (tubed) or LCD (flat panel).
With CRT, 60Hz is by far the worstrefresh rate to use because many suffer from what I call the “60Hz headache”. When you have a CRT set to this standard refresh rate there are many (myself included) that will develop a “dull” headache after about 30 to 45 minutes of use. In addition you may hear an almost inaudible high-pitched squealing noise. The cure to this ill is to change the rate to 70, 72 or 75Hz. The dull headache will go away and the noise will be gone.
Those who have been using computers long enough (particularly at work) most likely have specially coated eyeglasses to combat against the ills of using a CRT at a 60Hz refresh. While this helps, changing the rate to a higher hertz is highly advised.
With LCD, the best(usually) refresh rate to use is 60Hz. It’s the exact opposite of CRT. I only switched to 59 because it presented a better look to my eye.
While it’s true CRT still has certain advantages (it’s still the best computer gaming monitor to date as there’s no such thing as “ghosting” on CRT), LCD is far better as far as your health is concerned. There’s no “crackle” of static discharge when the monitor is shut off, the power consumed is far less, and it’s far better for your eyes.

Energy Requirements: LCD monitors are extremely economical when it comes to power consumption. Their consumption is in the region of 25 -50 watts compared to CRT which consume like 60-80 watts for a 15 inch model to almost 70 to 150 for 17 and 19 inch models.

@SpeakerVoiceCoil yeah, i can agree to OLED but once that certain LED dies, you cant fix it but i believe OLED works differently than what a regular LED does and is almost more like plasma but without the doping and other flaws. id love DMD/DLP tv sets as they have to be the most simplest out of all tv’s ever made

It will not cause any major issues.
The only possible problem is if the monitor is REALLY old and not capable of displaying at least 800 x 600 resolution. But those are rare these days.
December 12th, 2009 on 11:30 am
lol thanks. vac tube tvs are rarely made anymore since flat panel is less expensive and doesnt contain any dangerous chemicals in it because of the RoHS Act.
December 12th, 2009 on 3:43 pm
Exactly! YOU’RE a true thinker…..
December 12th, 2009 on 7:20 pm
A friend of mine had the same problem…it use to make such noise attimes..largely b4 windows bootup. He eventually had to get it repaired.
So i suggest you the same get it repaired. It wont cost u a lot.
December 12th, 2009 on 9:16 pm
I am watching this through a catode tube. I still prefere the old tubes to the different sorts of flat schreens. I just like the colours better. yet this is an amazing plant.

Replace the monitor as soon as possible. Until then, NEVER leave it powered on while you're away. CRT monitors can actually begin to BURN inside if there is an electrical issue. The smell is atrocious and you could risk a fire.
December 13th, 2009 on 5:14 pm
yeah, stuff that can all be reused. you can make a fairly cheap tesla coil just from the flyback transformer alone with some other parts.
December 13th, 2009 on 6:28 pm
CRT, without a doubt. But, there are a couple of new LCD screens that I read about that are supposed to be pretty good. They cost something on the far side of $2,000, if I recall.
December 14th, 2009 on 3:37 am
Yeah, i think OLED is thin film, whereas “normal” LEDs are conventional monolithic. But pixels can die on LCDs as well, of course. And yes, video projectors are another great display method.
