@Suiseiseki @EdBoatConnoisseur look what a lovely monitor I was able to got for around $15, it's the perfect size for what I need, except for... it stopped working!
When I plugged it in, a little blue light appeared on the power buttom, bottom right, and later it began working, but with blinking (not the right term probably) vertical lines all over; since I didn't know the maximum resolution (XFCE would let me change to 1080p) I only tried the "classical" old ones, 1024x768, 800x600, etc.
Because I didn't know what to do, I tried to power it off, it took some time until I realized it was neccesary to maintain the power button.
And it never powered on again. I tried 2 different VGA cables and 2 plugs to connect different.
I was told the DVI->VGA adaptor that I have might be harming the monitor (the motherboard has a HDMI and a DVI output for 2 monitors), and these monitors have VGA input.
Please help me guys, tell me things to try before saying that it's dead....
I'm so tired of this....
