    Ghot Thanks for the quick reply. The connector looks fine, and the cable is a standard one, no bulge. Haven't touched the monitor settings for years, so it's unlikely to be that. Also, I'm not sure...

    Trouble with that idea is that they default to the last folder chosen, not the Downloads folder.
