There has been a lot of things that were happening to my desktop, and these include: Monitor, Bose Sound Speakers, and some other questions that rose up in my head..
First of all, lets start with my fucking monitor
Its a SyncMaster 204BW Samsung 1650x1050.. and It's only a year old. The problem with it is, every day, after the monitor has been off for a while, or goes in power-off (rest) mode, and when it gets turned on again, the monitor goes whickity-whack.
To be more specific on it, I turn on my computer, the Analog sign (with 3 dots like the Curse Seal of Sauske in Naruto) comes up, and then the load up screen starts to blink furiously, but in like a regular error kind of a way, then sooner or later, when the Windows XP Loading up screen comes up, the monitor doesnt show anymore (Its still on though) I restart, the color is distorted, but the screen is still in place, and again, monitor goes blank, and I reset
I do this about 10 times, and then the monitor finally turns normal
Obviously for the regular gamer, this is extremely annoying by just doing this, and i've almost been "pushed" into creating this blog, don't really think its necessary to put this into General, since its probably going to be easy as fuck to fix it, only im just a computer-dummy
Next thing: Bose Sound System
I have the Bose Companion 2, (Sort of alternative version) And its been less than a year, but its birthday is comming up soon, like in a month or so.
Last friday, when I was hanging out with my friends, we were going to play some dota (yes fuck my life) and then my friend noticed that my left speaker didnt have any sound, I reconnected it with the right one, and still no sound, and I was like, wow wtf bbqsauce...
Soon later, while just forgetting about it, my friend wanted me to listen to one of the techno CD's that he bought, (which is pretty incredible :D) with the huge bass, my left speaker just go BAIOPEHRFIOPAEHRPIQEHRIPEHAP Like BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB error kind of sounding, and pretty loud, regardless of how loud or soft my right speaker was.
:edit: Oh by the way, on another note, when I put my earphones on, both sides completely work, just wanted to point that out
Very annoying, if you can figure this out, big brownie points,
Thanks for reading 
:edit: Once you guys have a solution for this, I guess i'll just ask my other questions, regarding a graphics card that I bought for my birthday, and my Power Watt supply, along with my motherboard...

return the bose and get a better sound system for a better price (like klipsch or polk)

So is the right speaker dead now, and the left one making fucked up noises? You didn't say if the sounds changed at all.
Also you probably just have wires crossed if its the kind of setup I am thinking, link me to the exact Item and I can probably figure out why its being retarded, if its not just broken.
You are also past any stores return policy, however I think through Bose they MIGHT have a longer warranty with them, depending on the price/quality of the speakers. But Bose might take them for repair, but I think you might have to pay for shipping.

I have Bose headphones and they are of far greater quality than any similarly priced Sony headphones I've used, who are self proclaimed awesome.
Computer speaker systems always seem like a severe compromise to me, but you're probably doing something wrong. If they're really broken, ask Bose, not a StarCraft forum.

The Right speaker is not dead, The right speaker is working fine, Im talking both about the left speaker, how when a loud bass is playing, it goes BBBBBB wtf mode and loud
:edit:
Just called my Bose System, and they're refunding the whole thing, even after the warrenty expired after a few weeks. Awesome!

disable power saving features in ur control panel/monitor settings somewhere/display properties

Just a quick stupid question, ever tried the screen on a different computer?
So youre absolutely sure its the screen itself that is the problem?
I wont comment the sound shit, since youre getting youre money back for it.

I said its all relatively the same unless you spend over 100$, I have heard logitech stuff that sounds incredible. Those speakers were around 130$ Maybe I aimed a little high with 100$ though, maybe below 80$ would be more accurate?
Samsung isn't actually that bad, I actually have a Samsung monitor that I have used for years. I like AOC/Envision products a lot though, I sell them at my job and the pictures on them look amazing. Although I think their monitors are a bit on the expensive side(dare I say overpriced?) The TV I have that is aoc/envision is very good and I got it for less than 400$.
