Please tell me it's not my monitor!? (1 Viewer)

[Tyler Gagnon]

My 17" LCD Monitor has streaks running through it, When i watch videos, It looks like blue lightning, It's only a couple months old, I never leave it on long either, I am using an 7500 All in wonder graphics card, Could this be my trouble?

I can't offer you any help, but you probably need to post more info to get better results.

-What make/model LCD screen do you have?
-Are you using the DV out or the VGA out?
-Does it only happen during videos?
-Does it only happen with MPEG's? (i.e. MPEGS use a direct to screen technology which is different than playing your basic AVI or Quicktime movies)

yes more info is definately needed. are there any emf sources nearby? speakers etc. is the discolouration localized all over the screen. need to know as much as possible.

It's my monitor, I tried it on my friends computer, And the same thing happens, I took it back to the store i got it from, And it will be two weeks before i get a new one.

It was a CTX 17" LCD, I guess you get what you pay for.
I did read a review of this in PC world Mag. They said it was a really goood bargian. OH! Well live & learn.
