| Do you have a favorite monitor for troubleshooting display issues? Posted: 30 Sep 2020 04:28 PM PDT I currently have an Asus VS208N-P (2014), which is the best I've found, but I'm looking for other options. In addition to having one in the repair shop, we've been thinking about having a monitor in the lobby for customers to retrieve their own data in cases of a broken screen. The best thing about it is that it automatically recognizes which input is connected and switches to it, and can be woken up by a signal from the connected computer. I have a DVI cable and a VGA cable plugged into it at all times, and a DVI-MDP and VGA-USBC adapter on the end of those cables, so I can easily pick from one of those four options. It's a little finicky though, and doesn't work well with every device that's plugged into it. Sometimes we have to take a computer over to a nearby TV to test with, which is gets better results from time to time, but goes to sleep after 5 seconds of inactivity and has to be woken up constantly to work. I'm wondering if anyone has a display they really like for checking display anomalies. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2020 08:55 PM PDT I just got the OK to get some new equipment, and stripped screws are the bane of my existence — the number of times I've had to stop and depot a computer is just too many. A lot of it is certainly due to sub-par bits, and I'm taking care of that too (getting a pile of Wiha individual bits), but I'm looking to get some micro screw extractors too if they exist just in case. I'm plenty familiar with the rubber band trick and with gluing something onto the screw head to get it out, but those both come with a number of cons I'd like to do without. Is anyone familiar with any particular brands or specific extractors that they'd recommend? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
