I checked my power output and it should
be getting plenty. I'm running an Antec 350w
TruPower PSU which more than handles
everything in my system. My friend ran it on
a 300w Antec with no issues as well.

Very true, but I have used Compaq monitors for quite a long time
as I find Compaq and Viewsonic make the best CRT's imo. I've
never had any issues with probably a good half dozen monitors.
Although, there is always a chance of problems due to compatability.

That kinda does make sense, but I have no idea how
you would remedy such a situation if it did actually
exist.
