GUEST,Caroline Edwards BS: Fire in Computer Monitor Destroys Home (67* d) RE: BS: Fire in Computer Monitor Destroys Home 02 Nov 04

Our house was completely destroyed by a Viewsonic 21" monitor. The remains from the room above it fell through the floor when the 2nd story collapsed. Don't know how extensive your damage was....if it was possible for it to come from the room above.

I've been doing internet research and have come across many people who's monitors started to emit smoke/fire, but almost all of them were lucky enough to have been nearby to prevent catastropic damage.

Have you researched to see if others have had similiar problems? Don't most monitors also have vents in the back/sides of them?
