How do I know the form factor and monitor type of my desktop?

Q. Form Factor:
Desktop: Standard
Desktop: High Performance
Laptop/Notebook

Monitor Type:
LCD (Thin, Flat Panel)
CRT (Older, Larger type of monitor)
Dual LCD Screens
Dual CRT Screens

Monitor Size


How do I know what all of those are? And how do I measure the monitor size, like diagonal, across, etc?
Those are the options a program I downloaded gave me, so how do I know what I have?

A. First off, you probably have a standard desktop (unless you have a laptop) so choose that. The monitor type is like it says. If it is the newer flat type it is LCD. If it is big and heavy it is CRT. Unless your computer is REALLY old, you probably have an LCD. Dual screens is for...well.. two screens. You probably don't have that. The size is measured diagonally from corner to corner. It will be 16 or 17 inches, possibly higher.

How to secure flat panel monitor better?

Q. I just bought two 22" LCD monitors on put them on my glass desk. I have a keyboard tray with my keyboard and mouse on them. Whenever I type, the monitors shake because of the cheap keyboard tray. Even when I put the keyboard on the glass where the monitors are sitting they still shake. Anybody have any ideas as to how to secure them better so they don't wobble around when I type? It's annoying!
Yes, they "clicked in" when I put them together. I can't believe they wobble so much.

A. first of all are they secure in their individual stands? you might want to double check that. i put mine on a lazy susan so i can easily turn or move but it also gave it more stability.
