Hi,
I have just discovered that the end of my monitor cord where it hooks up to my video card is slightly moist all over, and little pieces of plastic chipped off, one in my hands when I pulled the plug out.
The liquid does not smell or have a color.
My 8800 GTS has been running pretty hot (around 60C degrees idle, 80C on load). And it's pretty cramped back there, not much room between my tower and the wall.
What should I do? Is this a big safety concern, do I need a new monitor? The computer is being given to my brother which is why I was unhooking things, and he'll have more room for airflow. The moist monitor cord will be plugging into my expensive new computer, so I'm nervous.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
