Could the radiation is weakened when the display gets into the screen saving
status? Thanks. |

You probably get as much from things like blow dryers, electric razors, microwave ovens and any appliance with an electric motor. You certainly are exposed to more on ANY jet airline flight. Unless your monitor is REALLY OLD, it's unlikely to produce harmfull radiation levels of any type under normal operation. Even the levels of the older ones were in a low range which was regarded as safe by most experts. Screen savers probably wouldn't reduce the barely measureable emissions, but the power saving mode most monitors enter when the video card isn't sending a signal would probably eliminate most of those. Flat Panels operate in a way that wouldn't be prone to generate anything other than SMALL amounts of electromagnetic waves. CRT based displays normally have internal shielding that takes care of the low levels the older models generated. |

To which type of radiation do you refer?
Nuclear? Radio Frequency? Electro-Magnetic? Microwave? Alien Mind-Control? To which type of screen do you refer? Pre-Employment? Toxicity? Drug? Insect? TV? LCD? CRT? Generally speaking, few screens weaken Alien Mind-Control Radiation. Disclosing that you are under the influence of Alien Mind-Control Radiation may, however, clog a Pre-Employment screen. steve "smith" <someone@microsoft.com> wrote in message news:eZm7lgEDGHA.1088@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... > Could the radiation is weakened when the display gets into the screen > saving status? > > Thanks. > |

Yes, if you blank the screen.

>Could the radiation is weakened when the display gets into the screen saving >status? Yes. The radiation produced by CRTs are within recommended daily allowances for most frequencies (X-Ray, etc.) with the possible exception of one of the UV bands - that's according to one particular report I read on this. Modern screens produce less of this stuff that older ones, possibly because the glass on the front is thicker; in any case, modern CRT screens are built to more stringent standards. Reducing brightness will reduce radiation, while increasing the refresh rate will reduce flicker, another source of fatigue. When the screen saver comes on, there won't be much change in radiation or current draw. When the screen goes into a suspend mode, the CRT scanning beam stops, and current draw is reduced - almost to off, if the deepest of power saving modes is used. With no scanning beam in action, radiation should drop to very low levels. >---------- ----- ---- --- -- - - - - Don't pay malware vendors - boycott Sony >---------- ----- ---- --- -- - - - - |

what internal shielding are you referring to for CRT displays?

The CRT tube is lead coated.
