Back then, the OP appeared to use "hardwired" differently from how
I would. I've never seen a monitor that could be hardwired to
anything: all have had sockets on the back. Ditto personal computers.
My monitor with the flickering colours was firmly attached with
screwed-down D plugs. That doesn't guarantee electrical reliability
of the individual pins.
OTOH I've only experienced Out of Range complaints when guessing
the settings for a new (to me) monitor/TV.
Cheers,
David.
